Tell a true story about a tattoo or make one up. Do you have one? If so, what of? If not, what would you get if you had to get one? Best one you ever saw? Worst? Tell your tattoo stories!
I am the happy owner of two tattoos – one on each wrist. My first tattoo, which I got at the age of eighteen, is on my left wrist. It’s a simple Chinese character that means ‘night’. I don’t have a picture of it, but I do have a picture of…
This lovely Celtic knot style butterfly is on my right wrist. I got it when I was nineteen years old and it took about four hours to do the whole thing – one sitting.
I took a long, long time choosing each one of my tattoos and they both are significant reminders of certain times of my life as well as life lessons learned. Nothing pisses me off more than people who get tattoos because ‘it’s cool’ or ‘it’s pretty’. Call me a tattoo snob, but I think if you are going to permanently mark your body, it should mean something.
I know what I want for my third tattoo. (Yep, they’re addictive.) I’m just deciding where I want to put it…
It’s quite beautiful – I love that you combined butterfly and Celtic!
Thank you.
