Piercings and Tattoos?

Yes please! I mean, yes, I have a few…

Piercing have historically not been my friend. I’ve had one ripped out, a few get infected, rejected or not heal properly. I currently have a total of 7 in my ears and a nose ring. I probably won’t get anymore.

Now tattoos are a different story, I currently have 16. I’m not going to list them all, but I will share the ones that mean the most to me and will share pictures of my two favorite.

-My very first tattoo was a blue rose with swirly tribal on either side. I got that when I was 16. Though I still love it, it needs to be reinked to bring it back to life and maybe something added to it.

-My biggest tattoo is this fairy on my calf (excuse the unshaved leg) It was actually from a blanket that I got from Spencers years and years ago and I just had to have her. She came out beautifully and I still am so happy with her.

-The one tattoo I thought about the most and wanted for years was my ugly duckling. This one means the most to me for me, it has nothing to do with anyone else. This is the ugly duckling that we all grew up with from the golden books, but he doesn't look the same exactly, he’s a little spicy. Like a lot of people, I grew up as an ugly duckling. I was over weight and the weird kid that liked different things than most my age, so I got picked on a lot. But also, he is a reminder to let things roll off my back and not take things so personally.

Those are my 3 most meaningful tattoos. If you want to hear more, let me know!

Do you have tattoos? What’s your favorite?

Thank you for reading!
