One of my friends brothers had a love heart with a rose and "Your Name" written on it, used to use it to pick up girls by saying "If 'your name' is tattoo'd on my arm will you go out with me?" lol

Ack! *gags* Did it ever work? :p:
I've always wanted Astro Boy tatooted on the top of my right hand butt cheek.
shows how deep my tatooing self-expression goes huh!
I have four tat's all with special meaning..
My first is of a small bunch of flowers, it has two large stems reaching up and looking away, and three in a smaller bunch of three facing forwards, when i got it i was only 18, and really liked it for some reason, and now to me, the two flowers facing away are my angels, and the three flowers in a tight bunch are my dreams of having three children to raise... hasnt happened yet, but its my inspiration..
Next i got a symbol of Friendship on my left shoulder, again i was young and got it done with my "best friend" we both got the same symbol- we are now no longer friends as she liked to sleep with my boyfriends.... so um, now it symbolises to me that I know the true meaning of friendship, and i hope she cringes every time someone asks her what hers means...
The next one i got was a half moon with a face and a green eye facing out, with a swirly ring of stars around it, to me its my feedom. I got it done with my DH(then boyfriend) by a friend who had just started tattoing, and i was living in a new city with new people totally experiencing life and feeling good. It will always remind me of being young and free and happy!!!
My next one is a small capricorn symbol on my right hip, a little vs one which is small and cute and i look at like my stamp of Capricornian!!
I am wanting to get another one on my lower middle back, and another to Symbolise my angels better including their names and dates, but i am yet to do it. As i am pregnant now, it will wait till Sprout arrives, and i may look into designing something to incorporate all my children.
Now DH..... where do i start!! LOL I will start at the top of his body and work down!!!!
On the back of his neck is the chinese symbol for Courage which is a two picture symbol
Right under that is a crossbow of fatherhood
And right under that is the symbol of his celtic family heritage
Under that is a long celtic sword running down his spine, with a skull in the handle of the sword- the sword has these cool wings that expand acroos his shoulder blades
On his left shoulder is celtic arm band and underneath that is a love heart with his daughters name in it
On his right shoulder he has a circle with the third eye in the centre- this was actually his first tattoo, and it symbolises someone or something always watching out for him.
Under that he has an arm band with the male symbol
On his right leg he has a picture of a skull dude with long hair!! It never got finished, so its just the out line and not my favourite, but it was funny having to shave his leg for him to get it done!!
I have two. One on my ankle which is a bumble bee with a dotted fly trail. My sister drew it for me as a present for my 18th birthday. It is a representation of my name Melissa = honeybee. My dad was furious at me for getting a tattoo, but, being the acountant that he is. I told him it only cost $50 and if I span that out over the rest of my life even if I only live to 70 or so is is only $1 a year. great value! :p
The other is on my lower back and is the outline of Australia, It is actually the 2001 federation celebration symbol. It symbolisies to me that we must grow and change to reach our Ultimate Identity, this is what life is, the constant change and growing to strive for our goals. It is also a show of patriotisum I love and am proud of being Australian. What other courntry has started from such dodgy beginings and (for the most part) now has a fantastic culture and sense of welcome to everyone.
.................................................. ......................................
tattoo number 3 will be;
Haven't got the design or location yet but i have the inspiration. I'm opening my own coaching business and have called it Ultimate Identity. I want to get a tattoo to Inspire me when working as sometimes it can be overwhelming to relying totaly on myself.
Tattoo Number 4 will be;
My animal guide. which is a Spider. I want to get this right before i do it, as a spider on a girl could just look terrible.
Others will be any kids I have, Thier names and a picture of their animal guides.
I'm also thinking of something to remember our Tiny Dancers, the grief is still a little new so I'll have to wait for that one.
Warm and Sunny Smiles Mel
Freaky! Me too!:
I got mine just before my H and I were about to start raising my sister. I was really nervous about how I was going to cope and I remembered that while grieving my Mum's death I would often tell myself "I am strong". It has been an amazing reminder of my strength at times when I really needed it. I love it!!
Sushee - this sounds awesome, I hope you do it!:
A string of 13 hearts down my spine to commemorate the 13 embryos angels I had transferred but didn't stay with me.
I only have one at the moment (but dying for more!). It is a butterfly in a celtic design in the small of my back. I had it done when I was about 22. Nothing really deep and meaningful about it, there's just something about butterflies that speaks to me. I got it in a celtic design to represent my family heritage, thought that would be cool when I saw it.
I am planning another as soon as I've finished b'feeding. It will be a small butterfly on my inner wrist. It will represent the baby we lost, the struggle that came after and will remind me to never give up hope...I am also contemplating adding the words 'meus angelus' (my angel) in cursive.
I also want to add my children's names and am thinking of expanding on the tattoo on my back to do this. I wouldn't mind turning this into a bigger piece, would be very easy to do.
There is also another butterfly I am contemplating on the inside of my hip, would like to put it over some scars from my surgeries...not 100% sure they'll be able to go over them but we'll see.
DH has quite a few small ones all accumulated on his upper arm, they don't really have much meaning apart from one he designed himself, he used to be quite the artist when he was younger, unfortunately I haven't seen him pick up a sketch book in years :( But he has our DDs handprint with her name and dob on his inner arm and will be adding one for DS too (maybe a footprint this time).
Cool thread!!
Ok I have read this thread and it has reignited my desire to proceed to have one done to commemorate the birth of my little one. DH wants one too - we have been talking about it since we became pregnant but have no idea about where to start with looking for a design etc etc. Also I am totally a sook although am somewhat reformed (I managed accupuncture late in pregnancy and the spinal during my c section both of which I was previously deathly afraid of!)
Here are some questions out here for you who have had your bodies adorned:
1. How did you come up with idea for yours?
2. Did you wait to make absolutely sure you wanted to go ahead with it? In the case of those having had them done to commemorate little ones did you wait until you had all of your children before you went ahead?
3. Did it hurt? What does it feel like?
4. How did you find the tattoo artist who completed the job/s for you?
5. For the ladies does having the tattoo have an impact on labour/hospitalisation/pregnancy etc?
Thanks for your input!
Belinda :)
i will answer what i can.
I started by getting the design I wanted drawn. (This can be done by yourself a friend or a freehand tattooest.) I then put this picture in my wallet and on the back of the toilet door (Sounds wierd I know but i saw it everyday a couple of times a day) I left it there for a year. this is howlong it takes me to get annoyed with things. If i still liked it after a year I got it. I picked the spot on the body based on what bits don't go as saggy in old age.
To find a tattooest I started with a google search for freehand tattoo awards then looked for recomendations, I then went and saw him and asked to see his work.
what it feels like, this does depend on your pain tolerance level. I think it feels like somone drawing on you really really hard with a felt tip pen. (Those ones that have metal holding the tip) Others say it is like cutting yourself with a razorblade. I fell asleep when I got the one on my back because it is a constant same kind of pain. It's like eating chilli, once you've had it it doesn't get any hotter it is just constantly hot.
PS. If your going to get the tattoo on your belly wait untill you've finished having kids. A friend of mine had hers done after each birth. One moved from her pelvis to the middle of her side. another has a strech mark through the middle and looks lopsided and a little saggy.
hope this helps
Mel
I so so so love :heartbeat: checkin out tatts on people :dance:
... But I've gotta say until this day I still av not seen a tatt on someone I've met that I could honestly say looked g8 or had a wow factor :rolleyes:
Sometimes I think some people either don't carry em off well & then they look cheap & tacky on em or there simply r not enough fantastic tattooist's out there ?? :dunno:
I av 2 girlfriends who av got a ton of tatts done btw em ova the past 2yrs & OMG they look so faint & faded only afta a few mths & the tattoo arrangement looks so nasty & cheap, ... Sadly I use 2 think of em as attractive women BUT these days the tatts jst seem 2 make em look like a couple of rough chicks that wld pic a fight wt u, ... augh but I love em cause they r my gorgeous life long friends & OMG wld neva breath a word of my thoughts 2 em about their tatts :redface: If anything I encourage em 2 get more tatts as I can c it makes em happy :happyforyou:
... Gee, I'd b savin my money up 2 fly 2 the States 2 get em done at Miami Ink ... Now, there is real art in their tatts wrk ;)
Going to reignite this thread because I love hearing the meanings behind peoples ink.
I have a small daisy design on my hip, this was my first and celebrates my independence. I was 18 when I got it done.
The other is across my lower back (tramp stamp :p) and is a vine type thing with my star sign in the middle.
My next one is my daughters name on my inner wrist (over my lifes blood)
and the other is to extend my back work up my spine. I'm needing help designing this one as I have zero artistic ability but have a vision in my head of what I want. So if any one would like to take pity on me...;), I am more than happy to take offers.
I have a phoenix, the bird of fire, on my groin area, I got it when I was 17-18, as it is a creature of endless life and is constantly dies and is reborn, it is my insperation to never give up and it doesnt matter what life dishes out I will rise above it.
Yes I have 2, both on my left ankle/foot. One is my hubbys signature & the other is a tribal butterly!:D
I have a Butterfly with tribal around it on my lower back It a symbol of me being free and well flying the nest... ( i got it when i moved out of home) and recently added my kids names and DOB under it.
I AM and was pertified of needles but its so not that bad... I just sat there didnt flinch, cry or pass out like i thought i would... I'm planing my next one for my wrist... Not sure what it'll be just yet... something meaningful i'm sure...
ok this is going to be design number 4
:
Design number 3 is going to be my totem animal - I now just need to book in for it. I've got a girlfriend designing both number 3 and number 4 for me - not going to get them both done at the same time as number 3 (the totem animal) will be a whole day job
I only have 1 tattoo which is in the middle of my lower back. It is a chinese symbol which means Eternity, I got it in memory of my gorgeous friend whose life was ended way too soon. It's nice to know that I have him with me forever.
I have 4 Tats
#1 - the symbol for Gemini on my - as i am a gemini
#2 - Celtic design in red and black on my lower back - my dad is irish so its my heratige
#3 - chinese chareters down my spine - it reads "Always & Forever Murphy" he was my forst horse and I had him for nearly 20 years before we had to put him down..
#4 - stars and dots around my ankl bone that I designed for my husband and my 1st wedding anniversary - we were married on the 20th I there is 20 stars..My husband got the same tat at the same time on the same ankle. so we match!
I will be getting more when bubs is born and im not b/feeding anymore.
Kate
I dont have any as yet, im pretty freacked out about the pain factor to be honest. My DF has a couple of nice ones tho.
He had one designed for him of a Bodhi tree with roses sort of behind & around the trunk & with an orangey sunset coming through the branches. Obviously the tree is for our son Bodhi & the roses are for our daughter Mya-Rose. He gets complimented on quite often. its on his upper arm/bisep.
He also has the kids name in running writing on the inner sider of his other arm.
He got a ring looking thing with my name it around his wedding finger.
Amy - love the bodhi tree with roses. so special.
I'm still looking into designs for my back but am too choosy, suppose it comes with the fact that it is permanent so I better really love it!
I have a butterfly on my lower back which I got done when I was 18, just after I ended a nasty 2 year relationship. It symbolises freedom.
I also have an "Ankh" which is an Egyptian Heiroglyph meaning "Eternity". I am a big history buff - especially ancient societies. I have this on my hip.
Below the Ankh I have my DH's name which I got after he proposed to me. Because it sits just below the symbol meaning eternity - I think its pretty special.
being a rebel teenager i was into peircings and i always wanted a tattoo but my oldies daid no... so when i turned 18 i decided to get one-didnt kno wat to get wanted something that i would always like so i got my name taegan in script text on my right foot...
hehe thought my names never gunna change and my like for butterflies may ya kno!
and also have a celtic design on my heal going up my achilies tendon around my ankle bone-its a funk one and has no meaning other then i thought it ws a cool spot to a tat!
cant wait to get more... i love them and dont think that u even concider the issue ofpain if u really want it. my sis inlaw has 3sis they got a symbol meaning sisterhood they all had it tattooed in the same spot between their breast-like where ur underwire sits and goes down their sternum its wicked spot!
I never worried about the pain.
The most painful part was the outline and even that was bareable. The colouring in was just like a hot scratchy feeling. In all honesty - it's quite an addiction! I am running out of places where a tat can be concealed though! I'll probably get one more and that will be it.
lol i went with the roses, but WTH, they're memorials - the first was a promise to my stepfather, a grave marker he never got, even though he horribly abused me as a child and teenager i had to get it done after he died, maybe to lay a ghost? it's on my right shoulderblade, and i had it done when i was 17 (at the time only biker-babes and prostitutes got tattooed - showing my age here !)
in 1998, i drew more roses around it, one each for my kids and a couple for babies i'd never had the chance to birth, and had them re-done in purple.
in 2004, i had the hindi word for "desire" ( the Scorp motto is "I Desire") tattooed on by lower back, along with my DD1 having the chinese symbol for "crazy" for our birthdays - her 16th, my 40th - in Devnagari script. took me ages to find an accurate translation! I'd just finished my third diploma in natural health, this time in reflexology, and my teacher also taught us Ayurvedic medicine. brilliant stuff!
this year for my 44th and DD2's 16th, we're getting tattooed together - for me it will be Hindi word for "mother" which uses one of the same characters as my other hindi tattoo - this time for this current batch of babies i've lost, her for a dear departed friend.
we girls also share some piercings - we have our left nipple done, as well as getting other piercings together, in different body parts :D
my son is a tattooed and pierced hussy too !!
I used to be peirced!!
I had the top and bottom of my navel done, my nose and I also had my tongue done. All four are gone now - they were high maintenance!!
I also have my trag peirced which I LOVE. It was the most painful of all my peircings and I would never get it done again - but hopefully it will stay put forever!
I also have my ears peirced twice.
DH has three "special" peircings :D
lol good for your DH - mine has no piercings and no tattoos whatsoever, i tease him about being mr conservative, and he just tells me i do enough outre stuff for both of us :D
i had my tragus done in '91, along with another in the other ear cartilage. both were a pain and never healed, so seven years later i took them out for good ! both earlobes are done twice, and my nose (also a Hindi thing)
DD1 has a nipple, tongue, belly and beauty spot (lower lip, tho)
DD2 has nipple, tongue, beauty spot, and snakebites (no, i didn't like those at all)
DS has lower lip and a couple of very nice tattoos - stars on elbow and ankle, done with friends, and "such is life" writ large across his chest - he's a cutie and all the girlies love it!
Gah, I love tattoos (and piercings). I would have plenty more tattoos if I could just save up the money rather than spending it on stilettos, but piercings are cheap and easy so I have lots more of those.
I got my first tattoo a few months after my 18th birthday, I'd always wanted one and was hanging out for the day I was legal... then I forgot about it because I was so busy legally buying alcohol and getting into clubs!! One morning I woke up and thought, 'OMG! I'm legal!' and got on the phone to the local tattoo studio to book an appointment for that afternoon, with no idea what I wanted or where.
I ended up choosing a kanji that apparently translated to 'poison', and got it on my spine between my shoulderblades, in the middle of my upper back. I added to it a few years later on my 20th birthday, getting kanjis meaning 'pain' and 'beauty' on top of it. They don't really mean that much, they just looked nice and I thought the meanings were pretty cool (and no, I don't know if they actually mean those words, but who's to know? None of my friends are of asian heritage, and strangers' opinions I could care less about - I was young and stupid and I still love them!).
Between that first kanji and the other two, I got a heartagram on the side of my right leg, just below my knee. Yes, I'm a big fan of Finnish band HIM (who use the heartagram as 'their' symbol), but I also like that it's supposed to symbolise the everlasting cycle of love, life and death being intertwined and inextricable.
A few weeks before I found out I was pregnant with DD (I was already pregnant but was still menstruating so didn't realise), DH and I gave our friend's dad a chance to get some business at his brand-new studio (which ended up closing down a few weeks later due to some trouble with his business partner). DH got a tribal cross design that was drawn for him by a friend, and I chose lyrics from My Chemical Romance's 'It's Not a Fashion Statement, It's a F***ing Deathwish' - 'From the Razor' on one wrist, and 'To the Rosary' on the other. They're still (and probably always will be) one of my favourite bands, and I just like the way the words sound. I identify with them in the sense that I'm a former self-harmer, and the first line actually covers some small scars I have left.
My latest tattoo was a little treat to myself after DD's birth - two Beretta pistols across my chest, pointing outwards to my shoulders. They're only outlines at this stage, but after DD2 is born I'll be heading back to get them finished off and perhaps add something to them. I'm not sure why I chose that particular tattoo... I'm just the kind of person who wakes up in the middle of the night thinking, 'OMG that would be an AWESOME idea!' and then goes out and does it.
People always ask about my tattoos, what they mean and why I got them... it's hard explaining that, for the most part, I just got them because I damn well felt like it and thought they looked cool. Yeah, I'm into meanings and what not, but only one of my tattoos (the ones on my wrists) have any tangible meaning to me and it's quite awkward explaining to strangers or mere acquaintances that I suffered depression, eating disorders and self-harm, and attempted suicide several times as a teenager... it's none of their business. Let them think I'm just a moron who doesn't think my decisions through and will grow to regret what I've done to my skin - so far, so good. I still love my tattoos and want lots, lots more before I call myself sufficiently decorated!
I was planning on getting a tattoo for our wedding anniversary last year, but I had some issues with the tattooist (I'd specifically asked to be tattooed by the senior artist but, due to a 'mix-up' I'd been booked with the useless woman in there who can't wield a needle to save her life and charges twice as much as any other artist I know because she ****s around, talking on her mobile and taking cigarette breaks so it takes twice as long to do a tattoo - and then she charges double what it *would* have cost because *she* wastes so much time), so it didn't end up happening. I'm glad, because it's given me the extra time to work on a better design, something more personal and meaningful, and also to lose the baby weight I hadn't lost after DD, so I'll be able to get it in a better place.
As far as piercings... I started out with a navel piercing for my 13th birthday (I'd begged my parents for the last two years for a nose piercing but they didn't want me 'mutilating my face', so let me get my bellybutton instead), then got my tragus, eyebrow, labret, nose, daith (ear cartilage, similar to a rook), tongue, snakebites, bridge, septum, and a madison (nothing dirty, I swear - it's a surface piercing in the hollow of my throat, between my collarbones).
I've taken a few of them out, so now I'm without my bridge, madison (both started rejecting and wouldn't clear up), navel, and labret (got some bad gum erosion so I decided it was best to look after my oral health over my vanity), and the short-lived madonna (pierced it myself with unsuitable jewellery and took it out two days later when the swelling got nasty).
And yes, I'm still open to more piercings, I'd love to get my bridge redone as soon as I can!
Gothmum I want to hug you lol I have my septum pierced and people think Im mad so nice to know Im not the only one here lol. I agree with HIM and MCR once im better off financially I wanna get more ink (love love love the heartagram) and I love the guns but wouldnt suit me. I want to get a koi fish when I move as a reward but other than that Im still just sketching
my husband has a few one is a picture of a truck as his father drive trucks and he idolized his father so when he passed that was the first tattoo he got he has also got pebbles and bamm bamm, pebbles as our youngest daughter when we put her hair up it just sticks up like pebbles and we have had so many comments that she looks like pebbles and for the tattoo of bamm bamm our son has the intials B A M so we thought that they both go in tow with each other also my son is very fair like bamm bamm was. While my husband was getting a tattoo someone came into the tattoo shop and wanted the cookie monster as he son had passed and his son really loved the cookie monster.
I want to get an intimate piercing done but my nose & nipple both hurt like nothing else so I'm a bit wary of a needle in that particular spot ;)
Have to wait now until after summer for the tattoos - I'm spending too much time out in the sun to be able to cover that much of me up.
Also one of my gorgeous friends wants me to get one on the inside of my arm (I told him when the toning is finished then I'll consider it), he has some AMAZING tattoos - he is one scary man (used to do the illegal underground fighting in the states & asia) - lets just say I'm glad he loves me & is protective of me coz I'd hate to be anybody who has a problem with me and crosses paths with him!
the first pic is my new one - the newest memorial, for my lost babes - i wanted something different to wings or angels. this is Hindi - it says "mother"
the base of my back i had re-coloured to match - also in Hindi, it says "desire"
the roses are my next project - they sure need a touch-up!
this link works for htose who can't see the thumbnails: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?ai...&id=1369481946
Okay, I officially rule.
I've decided to go the whole damn hog and get something huge:
The first part of Act V, Scene II from Shakespeare's Othello.
I'm still tossing up between getting just the monologue at the start, or going right through until the part where Othello kills Desdemona.
I might be just slightly crazy, but Othello is my absolute favourite Shakespearian play, and Act V Scene II is the most amazing thing *ever*. So, it's only fitting that I get it inked, I reckon :)
Looks like my tattooist, if he agrees to the insanity, is going to find himself the lucky recipient of a portion of that gov't stimulus package!! I'll just have to save it until after the baby arrives and I'm able to get tattooed :)
oooh cant believe i didnt find this thread sooner
im so sick of people asking what my tattoos mean even though most of them are words!!!
1st tattoo: the word Trust on my lower back....bad young love breakup lol
2nd tattoo: tribute to my favourite band Korn... korn follow the leader (album name) on back of my neck
3rd tattoo: jack skellington from nightmare before xmas on my inner thigh
4th tattoo: upside down cross on right arm symbolising my atheism
5th tattoo: the album cover art from korn follow the leader (a girl hopscotching up a cliff) on my left arm
6th tattoo: 'your time will come' on my inner right arm...alot of people think this is omenic but its more my version of karma....if youre good, good things will come, if not, karma will bite your bum!
everyone has an opinion, mostly bad/rude/whatever, but i just say, theyre on my skin not yours...sure ive had times where ive gone 'why did i get that?!' but i know theyre permanent and i dont regret anything ive ever done.
if anyones interested you can see my arm tattoos in my BB gallery
^ Ooh, I was going to ask what the one on the inside of your arm said lol, saw it in those pregnant portraits on FB and thought the script wsa beuatiful but I couldn't see enough to make out what it said... I like it!! Very nice :D
Yeah I'm with you hahaha, sometimes I look at a tatt and think, 'God you're a doofus, wtf?' but I don't regret them at all hahaha, it just annoys me that I've come up with a better idea for a tatt and it's in the way of what I want now, kwim?? Like I want something rad down my back but I have the kanji there, I'm like 'rawr kanji go away'... but I still like them hehe :D
In other news, I've decided to quit the Othello piece at 'It strikes where it doth love. She wakes.' lol.. I can't figure out how to get Desdemona's lines in there without it becoming a jumbled mess... besides, the monologue part is huge on its own :/
I am actually a heavily tattooed Mama. :)
I have... here goes...
Ohm Mani Padme Hum (in tibetan script) on my right foot. (Means 'The Jewel within the lotus flower)
A sun inbetween my shoulder blades (Represents my freedom)
A gecko climbing up my spine... (Represents me basking in all my freedom)
Music notes on the back of my neck (self explanitory)
A pair of blue birds on my wrist (represents my daughter and I)
My daughters handprints on my chest...
A heart on my index finger... (I will be getting the rest of my knuckles done once I have this bub)
A half sleeve which is a 'garden' theme...
My eyebrows are tattooed on as I became really sick about 6months back, and lost my eyebrows!
I have many MANY more planned. A chest piece, another half sleeve, am going to cover my back, both sides of my ribs, a thigh piece (with characters from Tim Burtons movies!), and a skull on the back of each calf- a bride and groom theme skulls actually.
:lol:
Yes, people stare.
I have one & my Mum is soooooo againts them, she has always said no child of mine is allowed back into my house if they get a tatoo!!!! so what do I do, got & get the biggest I can find LOL!!! she's never seen it, it's on my lower back but it goes from one side to the other & I'm ashamed to say I've always wanted a tatoo but never had done so. Then when DH & I were trying to spice things up a bit after DS was born we went out & got drunk & he suggested it as he thought it would be sexy. So it doesn't mean anything!!! but DH still thinks it's sexy. I really want DH to get one & he does also just havn't done so yet.
I have two.
One in my middle lower back, a piece I designed myself, two dragons forming a heart.
One on my ankle, a frangipanni with tribal scrolling.
Before tattoos became cool, I always wanted one: a big Indian Chief on the left shoulder, complete with full head-dress. The pain would also be the issue.
A mate got one for a friend who committed suicide. The tatt is the St.Kilda logo with "For D..." scrolled under it. Looks really good too ... MrsP reckons it's a little wierd, though
PS - since D... went, the Saints have not lost a game ...
I have the triple Goddess - maid, mother and crone on my lower back...
I identify with the Goddess - I see myself in the crone stage of my life - the wise woman energy that is!
I got it when I separated from my husband. It seemed liberating and a little wild :D. I love it! However, I haven't any intention of any more...
I got my chest tattoo fixed up last week. The tattooist did a BRILLIANT job, it was basically an entire overhaul/coverup job and he did it fantastically. Even added lollipop-pink love hearts instead of the Beretta logo, and wrote 'BERETTA ITALY' in tiny, tiny, tiny little letters where it should be :) I will take pics once it stops flaking/scabbing, my goodness it's itchy hahaha.
So far i have just the one tat, its of a green chameleon on my right shoulder blade, its sitting on a branch, it has no meaning, i just LOVE chameleons, i actually love ANY reptile (we breed them) but chameleons are my favourite and i will DEF get to meet/hold/play with one oneday :D
I am getting a half sleeve down to my elbow, again another chameleon, but this one will be very pretty (pinks,purples,yellows) with flowers and such so it is much more feminine.
I will be getting my daughters name on my foor, (it will be in some kind of peice) covering my foot and going up my ankle.
I will def be getting a snake somewhere, but im not sure where yet.
