Wallpaper - Greetings from Idaho - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Idaho wallpaper brings a classic mid-century travel aesthetic to the wall, featuring artwork by The Tichnor Brothers. Designed with the distinctive character of a 1940s screenprint postcard, the composition centers on bold block lettering that frames scenic regional vignettes, from winding mountain roads and a fisherman casting into a river to a waterfall and bridge. The Idaho State Capitol with its golden dome anchors the foreground alongside delicate wild Syringa flowers, all set against a warm gradient of orange shifting into sky blue. Made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this design brings an authentic graphic look into the home.

In the room

Because the motif relies on a large graphic headline and detailed pictorial letters, we see this wall mural working best where it can be seen from a slight distance. In a living room or a dedicated study, placing it on a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall allows the full lettering and surrounding illustrations to remain clear. The design also feels right at home in a hallway or entry area, where its travel-poster character creates an immediate point of interest. In a holiday home, the scenic storytelling brings a nostalgic, place-based feel to a shared gathering space.

Styling it

We recommend letting the strong graphic character of the wallpaper lead the room while keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean and grounded. Mid-century modern sideboards, clean-lined desks, or vintage-inspired lounge chairs in warm timber work exceptionally well with the 1940s print style. To avoid visual clutter, opt for understated upholstery and accessories rather than heavy decorative patterns, allowing the framed postcard layout to remain the focal point.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper balances warm earthy tones with a crisp gradient moving from soft orange to bright sky blue, alongside the golden yellow of the capitol dome and natural landscape greens. When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or larger textiles, soft off-whites and muted creams provide a gentle backdrop that lets the graphic print pop. For a deeper accent in painted cabinetry or soft furnishings, consider pulling out the sky blue or a warm terracotta shade from the print gradient.
