Tattoos

Options
Well guys and gals....my darling little 18 year old sister just called to inform me she got a tattoo. We were supposed to go get them together but I guess I kinda chickened out and it is so hard to decide what exactly you are going to have put on your body until you die. *sigh

We went and got our noses pierced together (something I thought I would never do) but just woke up one morning saying "I really want to do that." So I did and I love it.:heart:

Here's my question. What are some opinions/suggestions on the subject?

I want a small one on my left shoulder blade but have no idea how to decide what it should be.

*deep breath

I'm going to do this one way or the other.:bigsmile:

    LOL

    if you're into astrology you could always get the animal or sign representing your astrology sign...

    me personally, I have sunflowers - which respresent my sunshiny personality and a seahorse - which represents my perception of myself as an exotic creature...

    just make sure whatever you get is representative of yourself and you'll love it forever :-)

    :bigsmile: OH GOSH I LOVE TATTOOS!! i HAVE A RATHER BIG ONE ON MY BACK, its a cross with my sons name underneath it!! lol here in a couple of weeks i am going to get one on the inside of my lip, well me and mu husband are, that says ::mine:: will say "EYE LOVE" and ::his:: "YUR FACE"
    lol its a saying we always say to eachother " i love your face" so we are getting them on our lip.... to decide what to get for a tattoo..

    ALWAYS make sure its personal, you dont want something pointless just cuz it was pretty, I make sure mine always have something to do with me, or my family, or something close to my heart, that way i can never regret it!!

    Get creative, make sure its original, and not something that EVERYONE else has,,, (not cool)

    && make sure you have "the one", and dont just settle for something because you wanted a tattoo, you may find something that next day that is perfect, but OOPS!!

    have fun with the decision making!! thats the first step, i think its funnn!!

    In all seriousness, I'd pick something that incorporates your faith, your son and maybe even your nephews initials.

    You can always choose a anchor on your forearm for your 2nd. :laugh:

    agreed but with mine:happy:
    or just get something that is really personal to you, thats what i'm doing!
    i plan on getting a tattoo for my birthday next year the design for it is going to be a fat little cute duck (after my great-grandmother, whom i nicknamed Duckie) with "Rachel" written on its belly, if it can't fit then just underneath it - Rachel in my family stands for, well, the people in my immediate family (Ryan, Alex, Cheryle, Heather, Erin and Lauren) and i might put Eva in there somewhere - after my nana
    i'm either going to get it over my heart or on my left arm - coz of that saying 'wear your heart on your sleeve'

    On the inside of your lip? Owie! Good luck girl...that is awesome and so very sweet what you and hubby are doing.:smooched:

    Yes...good points. I will look and look until I find the right one. That's why it is taking me forever.:embarassed:

    I'm never one to do anything that everyone else is doing....so that is good.

    Good idea. (not so much the anchor) I am kinda leaning towards a really cool cross.

    I have a few and most mean something (minus one....what was I thinking).
    I have Kanji writing on several and they are cool and private since only me, the translator, and anyone who knows how to read it can....if they can see it.

    Knew a guy who had "I love Patty" (his wife at the time) and asked him what would you do if you broke it off... His reply "add a d to love"

    Could do that with Colts
