Robert Frost's 

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

This one's kind of hard to see in this pic, but the woods are really lovely and the quote is perfect!

Marcus Pfister's

The Rainbow Fish

So cute and colorful!

Stephen Chbosky's

The Perks of Being a Wallflower

This is one of my favorite quotes and I love how they incorporated the cassette tape (mix tapes!) and everything

Maurice Sendak's

Where the Wild Things Are

This is just so simple and stunning

Kurt Vonnegut's

Breakfast of Champions

Too cool!

J.K. Rowling's

Harry Potter series

This one is awesome because the magic words "I solemnly swear that I'm up to no good" appear under a black light only. How wicked is that?!

Whaddya think of these literary tats?!

I've been dying to get more tattoos inspired by my fave books and quotes!

What kind of book inspired tat would you get?

Tatted Thursday (11): Fairy Tale Tattoos

This week I'm looking at fairy tale inspired tats. Now, I know that many fairy tales  have been changed over the years, especially those that have been Disney-ized, but they all started as written stories...

How all fairy tales begin...

Beauty and the Beast

The rose, iconic of the Disney version of Beauty and the Beast, can also be found in the earliest versions of this fairy tale.

Cinderella

There are many versions of Cinderella, but in all the versions, the fairy tale heroine always loses her slipper or shoe.

Little Red Riding Hood

No matter what version of this story you read, the red cape makes an appearance.

Sleeping Beauty

You can't have Sleeping Beauty without her fairy godmothers in some form

Rapunzel

Rapunzel's long hair is important no matter what version you read.

(this is actually painted on a doll and not a real tattoo, but I love it so much I had to show it)

And how all fairy tales (should) end...

Whaddya think of these fairy tale inspired tats?!
