After I got my first tattoo two years ago, I said I wasn’t getting another. It wasn’t that I didn’t love my tattoo or had a horrible experience – quite the contrary. I just didn’t really feel the need for anything else.
Then last year, I saw pictures of some dandelion tattoos on the internet… and an idea started percolating…
Then last month, Samantha (my partner in ink) told me she’d booked an appointment for some new ink. And that really got the wheels rolling.
She was able to get me in with her, and last Thursday, we had a little playdate where we both went under the needle(s)
Everyone told me the wrist (my first location) was one of the worst places to a tattoo, so I figured this wouldn’t be as painful… boy were they wrong! It hurt like the bejeezers…. but in the end, totally worth it
I know have my own little wishing fairy!
Samantha, as usual… handled the pain much better than I did. (Though her’s were much smaller…
She got her mantra on the inside of her bicep.
And the cutest little spider on her ankle.
And that’s enough ink for us…. for now at least 🙂
Ouch, ouch, ouch!!! I am way too much of a sissy to go though that. I see folks literally covered with them here at the beach and I think how brave. The dandelion is sweet though.They did a beautiful job on all of them. Such talent.

I want a cat tat, and have been planning it for YEARS! My other two tats were done very quickly; design decided on, and tat done. What am I waiting for?!? I love your fairy, and the spider tat is cool…simple, but clear.
