Wallpaper - Greetings from my Shop - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from my Shop - Screenprint Postcard wallpaper captures the nostalgic charm of a vintage storefront scene. Created by The Tichnor Brothers, the design centres on an illustrated facade with bold red script lettering for "A. J. Gunderson" set against a warm architectural exterior. Through the large front windows, the view opens into a detailed interior featuring green walls, shelving, soft interior lighting, green chairs, a wooden table, and a contrasting red chair. With its mid-century screenprint character and warm, layered colour palette, this design brings narrative interest and distinctive retro style to any room. Like all Wallism wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

Because this design functions as a pictorial mural wallpaper with architectural perspective, we find it works best on a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full storefront composition can be appreciated from a distance. In a living room or dedicated dining space, placing the wallpaper along a primary feature wall creates an inviting backdrop that draws the eye into the illustrated interior. It also adds wonderful character to a home office, study, or hallway reading nook, where the cozy shopfront imagery feels naturally fitting. To preserve the visual balance and keep the illustrated shop interior visible, we suggest pairing it with lower-profile furniture such as a low sofa, sideboard, or desk rather than tall, solid bookcases.

Styling it

The screenprint aesthetic and 1950s heritage make this design an exceptional match for mid-century modern, retro, and eclectic interior schemes. When furnishing around the wall mural, we suggest:

• Choose clean-lined mid-century furniture in warm timber tones, which echo the illustrated wooden table inside the shop scene.
• Bring in seating upholstered in muted moss green or rust red to subtly pull accent shades directly from the storefront motif.
• Keep surrounding architectural trim, skirting boards, and window frames in simple warm off-white or soft biscuit tones to let the illustration stand out.

Colour combinations

The illustration is defined by a balanced palette of warm architectural neutrals, muted olive and moss greens, rich timber browns, and deliberate pops of vibrant red in the signage and accent seating. When selecting paint colours and fabrics for the rest of the room, we suggest working with soft warm neutrals, light biscuit tones, or gentle linen shades on adjacent walls. If you prefer a richer setting, bringing a deep olive or sage green onto adjacent surfaces complements the shop's interior walls, while small decorative accents in terracotta or crimson will tie in with the vintage red lettering.
