My mum and me want to get matching tattoos, tattoo symbols ideas?

July 9th, 2010

My mum and I came up with the idea to get matching tattoos. We were thinking of some form of symbol, like family or protection or something like that.

Does anyone have any other cool ideas?

Ooh yeah, and does anyone have an idea on the placement of it too?

Over the heart, shoulder blade, calf, wrist.

Flowers are always good, you can get birth flowers or flowers that you grow, your favorite colors, black and gray. You can make a bouquet of a couple of flowers with a ribbon/banner that say’s names, or ‘family’, or ‘love’ or whatever. It can be soft and realistic, or artistic, like a pencil drawing, or bold, or stylistic, or it could be copied from jewelry or a design in fabric, etc.

Hearts can also be very individual if you play with design elements, and you can add flowers or banner ribbons, words etc.

here’s a flower made out of hearts:

or you could do little birds or ladybugs or lizards, or whatever:

there’s some good Celtic designs, like this tree of life with the triquetra:

this is thought to be the oldest Celtic symbol and is supposed to represent the 3 stages of man: Birth, Death, Eternity, or the 3 stages of life: youth, middle age & old age:

Should I get a Nautical Star Tattoo?

July 9th, 2010

I know they are so ridiculously common, but I really like them and have been thinking about getting one tattooed on my hip. It has meaning to me, which is important, and I know I shouldn’t care about what others think, but I don’t wanna look stupid as well. Should I get one? Or are they waaaay too common and will I look stupid with one?

i think rere_b ment common not uncommon lol.

i have one, its on my foot, me and my cousin both got it together, it ment something to us and so we got it. it is a very common tattoo :) but as long as it means something to you then totally get it.

ours is rainbow, because she is a lesbian and mine because i support her, we go to marches together and other stuff :) totally get it, dont care what others think.
