    Crying so hard right now. My sister, Henna, died from Anencephaly so I'm gonna get the awareness ribbon as a tat with her name on the side. And then for my Grandma I'm gonna get the words For-Good connected with an infinity sign as well as the date underneath it.

    Some of these are actually nicely done, like 6 & 18. Some line work on the others could have been nicer but it's the thought that counts. Somebody passed away, that's not a joke. My grandmother just passed away and I have her years on the side of my foot

    None of these are "tacky" there's no such thing as tacky tattoos. Tattoos are personal and they are unique to each body. These ones are especially beautiful, they are to remember a loved one. I have 3 tattoos to honor the dead and another one this month.
