I’m pleased as punch to announce a new feature skyrocketing from our 140-character fortress known as @Etsy. Each month our Twitter profile will be re-designed by an emerging, new artist and the design will be made available as a free wallpaper download on your mobile device. We’re kicking off September with Leah Goren, a Brooklyn illustrator working on her BFA at Parsons School of Design. Some of Leah’s favorite things are sketchbooks, pencils, poodles, and chapstick. You can download her exclusive design below and be sure to check out Leah’s portfolio and Etsy shop!

Instructions:
1. Pick your device above and save the image to your computer.
2. Sync your device and click the photo tab to include your pretty new wallpaper.
3. After syncing, view the photo and click the lower left button to use as wallpaper.
4. That’s it! Now show off and tell all your tweeps to follow @Etsy.
* We hope to have more tech options (desktop wallpaper, non-iPhone devices) in the future. Let us know what you think @Etsy!
