Etsy Find: Happy Birthday, Etsy!


Story by sarawearsskirts Published on June 18, 2008 in Spotlight	Photo by FranticMeerkat

Today, June 18, 2008, marks Etsy's third birthday! What better way to celebrate our little milestone than this totally awesome birthday card by FranticMeerkat, featuring a ridiculous 19th century illustration of a giant ball with stars and a tiger wearing a brightly colored party hat? There are tons of handmade birthday greetings, decorations, party dresses, streamers, birthday candles and anything else you could need for one great birthday bash on Etsy, but this one takes the cake.

Happy Birthday, Etsy, and many more!
