    What and where are they?

     

    I have two. One that is a whopping 12 years old! I got it on my right arm, and it is a sun and a moon connected like yin, and yang. My other one is close to my pubic bone, and it is in a place where pretty much all panties cover. It is a yin yang symbol. On the yin side, I have my horoscope sigh. On the yang side, I have a blank space, and I left in blank for my future husband's sign. I got it three years ago, and I was with my now FI, and I almost got his sign, but at the last minute I pulled out because I was pretty sure about our future, but not completely sure. It looks like I could have gotten it b/c in 10 months, he will be my husband. Before we get married, I will probably surprise him with it :-)

    What about you bees?

    3) CELLAR DOOR in Olde English script on my inner left wrist.

    2! but i want to get another one

    one is on my ankle - its a palm tree that i found on a sugar packet when i was younger, i always said if i get a tattoo thats what it will be - when i turned 18 my sister was like lets go! so i ran upstairs and found my little palm tree and had it put on me permanantly.

    a few years later i got my second. it is on my back in between my shoulder blades - i got it with my brother right before he went to iraq for the first time. its 3 little boxes one has flowers in it one has swirls and the other has stars. It was a rubber stamp my mom had at home that i thought was pretty.

    haha neither of them have any particular meaning, i just liked the way they looked. totheislnds/palm tree - ehh i really think i was made to live on an island somewhere.

    mandb122    March 6, 2011   Temporarily in Minnesota, From South Carolina, Wedding in Charleston

    I have four right now.  

    I have a row of purple stars on my ankle.  I'm not a huge fan of it anymore so I'm thinking I'm going to get it covered with a swan.

    I have two on my hip.  One is a lily and one is the word "amor". 

    I have one on my lower back that is a shamrock made out of celtic looking hearts.

    Besides the swan, I know I want one with my brother.  We already decided on what it will be but we have to wait.  We're each going to get half of a heart and the middle will be so that the two would form one heart puzzle if pieced together.

    Just one! It's 2 spirals that intertwine into one spiral, making a circle. It's on my right lower back (back of my pelvis). I want to get a lotus on my foot, but I think i'm going to wait until after the wedding.

    • A lily & star design on my right hip/side
    • A hibiscus on my right foot with a latin saying that means "Always Sisters, Forever Friends." I got that one done with my sister, and she has the same thing on her left foot.

    I feel it's kind of unfair at this point in my tattooing to count them by tattoos; the 4 leaf clover I got with an Irish Car bomb on st. paddy's day in college took me 20 minutes (that i don't remember) and my backpiece added up to like 5 hours when it was done...sooo...I guess I have...10...but about 25 hours worth of tattoos is how I look at it =)

    I have 6 soon to be 7.

    1. I have a side of a  butterfly on my hip that looks like its flying..

    2.  A lotus on my rib

    3. A stupid moon/star thing on my ankle that I got when I was 17.

    4. Another stupid one on my lower back.ughh

    5. I have flowers on one foot and my mother has the same one :) Love that one!

    6. I have a huge one of cherry blossoms blowing in the wind on my left lower side

    And I will be getting another one this month on my other foot..  Butterflies are meaningful to my mother and I because they were everywhere when my dad was in hospice. My father has a memorial stone in a butterfly garden so I love them. I want to get two butterflies flying togther and in the body of one rather than the actual body it will be a Periwinkle Stomach Cancer Ribbon ( for my dad  ) and then another one with a Pink  Breast Cancer ribbon ( for my mother ).

    I have 3 and I hate them all. I got them when I was 18 after a particularly traumatic experience. My then-self thought that the spontaneous decision to get these tatoos would help me keep my mind off of what happened. That was 11 years ago. Now, they just remind me of it every day. Luckily I can't see the ones on my back.

    1) Salamander walking on music notes on my ankle (Sister and I used to try and catch them as kids-- was to remind me of our innocence as children)

    2) Butterfly on my shoulder blade (Represented my desire to fly away from the problem)

    3) A symbol on my lower back representing my name.

    14. lol I don't feel like listing all of them. I will list the visable ones.

    1. Two moons surrounded by a sun burst on my lower back.
    2. One nautical star on my left shoulder blade.
    3. One nautical star on my right shoulder blade.
    4. Fairy on my right leg.
    5. Name on right arm
    6. Sugar skull on upper right shoulder
    7. Nautical star on my inner right arm.
    8-11 Nautical stars around nautical star #7

    Some people would count 7-11 as one tattoo but I don't get the work done all at once. Each star represents each year that I have been clean from cocaine. So I count each one as it's own tattoo.

    I guess I will list the others. lol

    12. Upper right inner thigh of a string of hisbiscus flowers.
    13. Capricorn sign on my upper right outer thigh
    14. Planet Saturn on my upper right outer thigh. (my ruling planet)

    Whew!

    I have one on my left hip.  It's l'amour in script curving up into a hibiscus flower.  When I'm wearing pants or shorts you only see the flower poking out the top.

    Just one - on my ribcage, a small tattoo that says "vivi la vita dei tuoi sogni".

    I'm thinking about getting another one on my wrist but i take several years to get comfortable with putting something on my body for the rest of my life (hence why I only have one - ha!). It'll either be a bird I drew myself or our wedding date in roman numerals - X.II.X.

    I have four.  Two I'd like to cover up with something else, someday but oh well!

    I have a tribal on my lower back (#1 that I want to cover)

    I have a flower thing on my left ankle (#2 that I want to cover)

    I have cherries above my right ankle (love)

    I have a fairy on my right sholder blade (favorite)

    The first two were my first two tattoos and I really didn't put any thought into them, I just went to a place (without researching the place at all) and picked something out of a book.  I got them within two weeks of each other and the quality is bad on top of the actual tattoo being just something random.  But I was young, and live and learn I guess? Embarassed

    1 on top of my left foot. My sister designed it for me. The symbol means luck. The 3 leaf clover represents my mom, my sister, and myself and Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I am not Irish so it is kinda ironic...oh, but my fave number is 3. Sorry for the super blurry pic.
