All I want for Christmas.....with poll
Is a gift cert for another tattoo. I have been putting off getting my "family" tattoo, since DS was born bc I didnt know what I wanted. I came across this today, a family tree.....and think it could be perfect since it can be added to if we have more kids and I think it would translate really nicely into a tattoo. I would just do the tree, not the circle and all of that.
I dont know where Im going to put it yet, and I figure itll be about 6" or 7" tall. With my birthstone, DH birthstone and DS birthstone. I would not put our names on it though.
Itll be my 6th tattoo, so if you had 3 going up your spine and one off to the side of your spine and another on your hip....where would you put it?
If other, or dont like, let me know what you dont like about it. Image Attachment(s):

Re: All I want for Christmas.....with poll
I like it. What about on your shoulder or over your heart?

I was thinking shoulder. Right now, all of my tattoos are strategically placed, so if Im ever in a tank or dress, you cant see them. So that would be stepping out of the box for me, but Im thinking about it. I was also thinking about my outer thigh, up by my hip (on the leg opposite where I already have the hip tattoo.)

Re: All I want for Christmas.....with poll
I normally don't like tatoos but I think this one is pretty.
how big are we talking?
what about the nape of your neck....the branches almost look like hairs which is why I think it would look nice.
personally I would never tattoo near my breasts/chest or my arms.

Re: All I want for Christmas.....with poll
For me, I would put it on the back of my shoulder or the inside of my forearm.
I don't know how visible you want it to be since you have most of your other ones in places that can't been seen....
What a great idea for a tattoo!!

thanks! I was considering that also. I was thinking maybe 6 X 4-ish or whatever it works out to proportionally around that size.
I wouldnt do the chest or arms either, which is why Im having trouble deciding on a place. I generally like to be able to conceal them if I feel I need too, which is why I was thinking outer, upper thigh up by my hip.
Decisions, decisions.

I think it's really nice! I agree with upper outer thigh area. I have one on my shoulder blade are, but I never wear strapless, so its only visible in my bathing suit.

Re: All I want for Christmas.....with poll
I think it's a little big for over your heart but it's beautiful. I'd say shoulder or, if you're daring.. something on your side. Like this:

Re: All I want for Christmas.....with poll
one of my best friends has an incredible tat on her side. it's just gorgeous (as is the one posted)
but on the side, I feel like you need to go big, or go to your lower back

No room on my lower back....which is a bummer. When I got my first two, I didnt expect to keep on getting them so I didnt plan accordingly. Im really liking the side idea, but youre right, Id definitely need to go bigger, not huge but bigger. Oh and lose like 10-15 lbs first......no one wants to be tattooing my flab, nor do I want to be showing people my flab

I definitely vote for your side, on your rib cage... although that's gonna hurrrrrttt.
Beautiful idea for a tattoo by the way... I love trees. You'll have to share a pic once it's done! GL!

Re: All I want for Christmas.....with poll
I am not a fan of tatoos at all - but I can appreciate the art of it -
That is pretty, and I agree it would translate well into a tatoo - I would keep it somewhere you can hide it though -
I think you could also easily do that much smaller that 6 or 7" if you wanted to

my others are right on my spine, so Im ready! I find excessive use of the word f^ck very helpful when getting tattooed right on a bone.
