GTKY: Tattoos

[mrssmith613]

I don't know if this has been talked about before.. I just like to look at tattoos and all the different tattoos.. On my first BMB one lady and her husband were tattoo artists and I just loved to see the different pictures!

How many tattoos do you have?

Do they have any special meaning or were they a regretful decision?

Do you plan to get anymore?

Pictures?

I have 1, an Icelandic rune for 'music' behind my ear.

Got it for my mom on her 1 year death anniversary. She had lost her hearing and had cochlear implants and I got the tattoo where she wore the external device. She loved music and had wanted to get this tattoo.

I plan on getting a bird called a Lóa for DD soon. I need to find an artist and have a sketch done. It's likely going on my left shoulder blade I think. Will get a tattoo for DS, just need to get to know his personality some more. It might be a version of Thor's hammer (his name is Thorinn) but he is just not a hammer-y guy if that makes sense lol.



Eta: this is a picture of a Lóa:

I don't have any but I'm planning one right now. I want to get a cardinal flying upwards, holding a grey ribbon in its beak for my grandma who just passed away from brain cancer. I'd eventually like to get one for DS also but I'll probably wait to get kid tattoos until I'm done having kids.

Hopefully this link works. This is the cardinal I'm looking at (or something similar.) www.tattoos20.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Cardinal-Tattoos-68.jpg

But I'd want it on my backx

My first one is my family crest, everyone in my family gets it when they turn 18, its on my left hip (back). the other I got at 20, its a tiger cub, just because its cute,

Do you plan to get anymore? I would like to get one for LO at some point

How many? 2

Special meaning or regret: Not really any special meaning. The turtle on my left shoulder blade is just because I like turtles. The one around my ankle is going to get covered as soon as I decide on a good thing to cover it with.

Plan to get more? Just the cover up...no additional ones.

Eta: and by left shoulder blade, I mean it's actually on my right shoulder blade. It's been a rough week lol

I have one tattoo - an emblem of my college - that I got while in college with my roommate. It's on my back hip and I honestly forget about it most of the time. No regrets, but I'm rather ambivalent about it.

In theory I'd love to get one for each of my LOs, but I'm not sure I will. Just not sure I'd be able to commit to the right kind of tattoo for them. Maybe initials? Maybe birthdate? Maybe a symbol for each of them? Then decide on where? If I get a brilliant idea, I may go for it, but better money is on not getting another one. Oh, I also wanted to get a white ink tattoo of a silver fern leaf, but again, I think that's more in theory....I doubt I'll get around to doing it.

I have two. Treble Clef and  "One has to suffer to be beautiful" in script. 

I would have them removed if I could. I want a double "S" tattoo in honor of both my sons. 

[babycaps]

I have two.
1st is a brazilian flag but in heart shape. Has meaning of always having my home country in mind. Got it 11yrs ago.
2nd one I actually got the weekend we conceived M. Has meaning. A LOT of meaning. It's part of our wedding vows and says "3.2 miles" in a funky font. That one is on my left chest/ribs.

NO more!

How many tattoos do you have? Just 1

Do they have any special meaning or were they a regretful decision? It's a giraffe on my calf. No huge special meaning but I got it after my on Valentine's Day when I was 21. It doesn't represent my boyfriend at the time so I don't regret it. I love giraffes.

Do you plan to get anymore? I would like to get one for LO but who knows.

Pictures? It needs retouched and sorry if my legs are hairy ❤️

I only have 1, but it's a big one. I got it when I turned 18. It is on my lower back but about 10 inches tall and 8 across. it WAS a dragon kinda coiled over a cross. no significant meaning, I just liked the artwork at the time. A few years back I decided to get a 2nd dragon to cover the cross (like the 2 dragons are coiled together). I don't like how it looks now...the artwork doesn't match well. I'd love to get the whole thing covered with an eagle, like a realistic looking one.
other than a potential cover, no more tats for me! I do think the watercolor tats are beautiful though. have you guys seen those? If only I could go back in time and do it different...lol! check these out:

The first one (butterfly on hip) was an I'm-18-and-can-do-whatever-I-want decision.
Number two (tiny heart on inside of wrist) is the birth stone colors of the girls I use to nanny.
Number three ("Lovely Bones") is ED related.

Do you plan to get anymore?
Yes! I will likely be getting DD's name on my inner forearm. If I could, I would have a sleeve and my ribs/back done too.

I love the look of the watercolor ones sooo pretty... Maybe I'll have to do something to that effect/affect (I don't know which is the right word ) when I get my cover up done on my tramp stamp

Do they have any special meaning or were they a regretful decision?  My first was a sun and moon design on my ankle.  I looooved suns and moons back then, my room looked like the solar system threw up in it.  I don't regret it, but it doesn't have any real special meaning.  I still like sun and moon stuff, but only have a few pieces now.  My second is my mom's initials with a halo above it, I got it a few months after she passed away, so very meaningful.  My third is my angel's footprint with her name and birth/death date.  Also very meaningful and I love that it is her actual footprint.

Do you plan to get anymore?  I'm not sure....I thought about getting one for LO too, but I have her, so I don't really feel like I need a tattoo for her.  Plus I am running out of places I would want one.  Right now they can all be covered when needed and I want to keep it that way.

Pictures? Sorry, I'm tired and lazy
