Just Picture It: Getting Another Tattoo (Eek!)

6/21/2012

Me, next week :) Image via bridgemanart.com

Yes, you read that right...although I know this post may upset some of my readers (my mom's response when I told her, "Are you really??? Nooooo!"), I have to share, because I'm just SO excited:

After almost 3 years of wanting another tattoo, I've finally decided to get one. And what better time/place to get it, than on my Bachelorette trip to Ft. Myers next week, with all of my very best friends/soulmates?
I cannot wait, and I think that two of them may even join me...yippee!

So anyways, I'm very torn on what to get. I actually want a couple of tattoos: a feather on my foot, a paintbrush on the inside of my wrist, an apple, and an OM symbol. But, I know that you must pace yourself with these things (it's been almost 10 years since my last tattoo!), so I'm starting with just one. And I think it's going to be a feather on my left foot. But then Ben thinks that I should get a feather on my right wrist. It's all very difficult to decide.

Therefore today, I wanted to share some of my inspiration images with you, and get your feedback!
Ultimately, I know that I have to go with my gut, but it never hurts to get a few opinions ;) I've included my favorite ideas below--you can click on the image to enlarge and read my comments about it. If you have any thoughts to share, please post them to comments!

Oh, and for those who don't know what my current tattoo looks like, it's below, on my right foot. Yes, you're right, it's the smallest. tattoo. in. the. world. It was my first and I wanted it to be very small!

So here are my ideas/inspiration:

What do you think? Once I decide on a tattoo, I also need to decide on the hue. I'll either get just black, or a dark brown, like henna. So many decisions!!!

To close, I wanted to share this really crazy, but also really clever tattoo that I came across while I was searching. Hehe! Some people have such a great sense of humor ;)

Can't wait to share some pics of my new tattoo next week!

Thanks for joining me on this journey :)

Namaste,
Mary Catherine

All I can say is Ohhhhhh Nooooooo! But at least your choices are tasteful. Except OM is not good for many reasons, I think. I like the feathers, except why on you? Have a blast with it, though!!!!!!
