Description EDIT

Down below I was asked what the tattoo design meant to me personally. And I honestly don't have a straight in set reason, I have trouble explaining it and a little bit of it is just feeling that it means, not really knowing.

But I can say at least this:

I like the concept of something coming from nothing, whole..uselessness turning into something beautiful, the dandelions are a deep set reminder of childhood and how when we're little we don't care if it's just a stupid weed.

It's pretty.

And how as we get older, we realize it is just a stupid weed and we stop enjoying little things like that. The black birds are a deep set love of mine since I was a kid seeing as my house is usually swarmed in them.

People think they're useless and ugly, but black birds are my favorite, in all honesty. Which is why this appealed to me right away.

I suppose a lot of it is that I love dandelions and black birds despite how utterly useless they really are to most people in the world and they both have deep roots into my life here at home. If that makes sense.

So yeah..

I've been looking for tattoo ideas because on February 25th I turn eighteen and I get my first tattoo.

I saw this design of a dandelion with it's seeds flying away and turning into black birds and fell in love. So I plan to get it on my shoulder, but I wanted to redesign it because the one dandelion by itself looked off and weird.

I'm not sure if this will be the final design or not and I'm definitely having someone who's far better at drawing that stuff than I am do it for sure.

But it gave me an excuse to draw the new hair color which is fail but we're not going into that <3

I had so much fuun ;u;

And the treble clef heart is because I almost chose that as my tattoo and it's gorgeous <3

Most tattooers will draw the design for you so that it's in their style but still what you want so that it's, more or less, unique.
Also, don't be afraid to tell the person tattooing if you don't like their design or the exact placement. Make sure you're 100% on everything.
Annnd, I really like your tattoo choice. It's wonderful. What does it mean to you?

(Definitely made a lot of those mistakes on my first tattoo)

Yeah I know they will, I went with Brooke when she got hers so I got to find out all that stuff when I was hanging out with the guy who was training there during said tattooing, I just want to change the original design, tweak it a bit before I take it in to them to be re-drawn.

Honestly, it's almost something I can't remember, like..the symbolism makes this part way in the back of my brain itch like it's a memory but I can't grab it..If that makes sense. But something about it means a lot to me..I just can't totally recall what that something is.

Thanks kit

Yeah, I know.

Also, instead of copy/pastin' I got to thinkin' about what it meant to me and all that and I kinda figured out a good response, put it in the AC's if you wanna see.
