A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Lovesick Hauswife.

First up (click through for larger images) is Mrs Ginn with her Hausewife knuckle tattoos by Brad Mariachi of the Por Vida Tattoo Family, Upland California..

And last but not least, well second I suppose, it’s Sam (remember?) with her lovesick fingers, by Xam, Frith Street Tattoo, London, England.

    Awesome tattoos. Especially the first one. Is there a reason (except for missing space) it says “Haus” instead of “House”?

    Haus is German for House… actually scratch that, “House” in German is “hause” only in conjunction with “FRAU” or “wife” if becomes “haus”
    look at me go.. I’m a thinker.

    people have no imagination. sabina kelley is a hugely popular model and these are her knuckles.
    its hard to figure out knuckle tattoos that are completely unique but come on, surely this is just way too close

    well haus is for letter and therefore fits on the knuckles whereas house is too long.

    fucken hell / paddy – It could be that she happened to choose a combination of eight letters, and settled upon this – There are a lot of tattooed fingers in the world and only so many words that fit.

    I’m sure there’s someone else in the world with “Open Arms” on their fingers, it doesn’t mean they’ve “stolen them” from me.

    it could be? haha, sure, like i said, it might, but its most unlikely since she had a bit of coverage on a few international tattoo mags very recently.

    its hardly a classic tattoo unlike love and hate. and its not exactly the usual spelling. so forgive me for coming to the most likely reason she had for getting them. also the fact that she just happen to get a VERY similar font. tut. nevermind eh? its only on her fingers FOREVER.

    plus sabina is german so the tattoo makes sense for her to have it.

    Actually, Haus is German for House, no need for an e at the end. I asked because I know it’s German and wanted to know if she had a special reason to connect German and English in her tattoo like that.

    *shrug* I just got married and thought was cute… sorry no mind blowing reason for getting my knuckles tattooed. I don’t know who this model is that you’re talking about but I’m not trying to be original in my tattoo choice. I just did it for me and my husband.

    Miau, my husband speaks German and I speak English, so I connected the two.

    Mrs. Ginn- it is cute. i’m jealous, actually, because i always joke that all i really want in life is to be a housewife.

    I wish the first one said “Haus Frau” instead. I just don’t get why she’d pick “wife” when “Frau” is more appropriate and also consists of four letters…but whatever, just one opinion.

    because it still sounds like “housewife.” i think it’s clever since her husband is german.

    I wonder how many people have Love Sick on their knuckles? Hmmmm. I love both of these, the font on the first one is stunning.

    I was going to mention Sabina Kelley but I see it’s already been mentioned.
    Roo- Your knucks say OPEN ARMS?
    I like it. Has no relation to the Saetia lyric “closed hands, open arms, hold nothing” right?
    Anyways, hell yea passivist knuckles!
    harmnone are mine.
    It’s morning and I’m rambling with not enough coffee…
