This tattoo really speaks to me. I have to say it gave me a little chuckle when I came across it. I’ve been sewing for just over a year now and it’s one of my favourite things to do. A sad, little known fact about me, lately I’ve been making myself guacamole every Friday night. So this tattoo, combining sewing notions and avacados just makes me smile. I can only assume these two things hold a similar allure for Tea_Leaves, who submitted the photo. The ink was done by Justin Buduo out of Piercing Emporium in Worcester, Mass.

Ok I haven’t logged in to Craftster in awhile. I’m going to go do that now.
Kristen – A lot of embroidery scissors in particular have very ornate handles on them. Some of them are really quite pretty, for scissors.

Two of my favourite things as well! I dig this tattoo

These are two great things, to be sure..
Why are they combined in a tattoo? looks pretty fuckin’ ridiculous.
I really like grapefruit (pamplemousse!) and I’m quite fond of dogs as well… should I get a tattoo of a dog eating a grapefruit?
maybe with a really ornate spoon?

Mor – Why not? Who’s to say what should and shouldn’t be combined for a tattoo? It has meaning to the wearer so who cares. If it is meaningful to you to have a grapefruit and a dog and an ornate spoon combined into a tattoo, have at it. I certainly wouldn’t call your tattoo idea ridiculous and I don’t think this person’s tattoo is ridiculous either. Actually I think it’s pretty freaking awesome.

Aw, thanks guys!
To Mor, I say if you love the things you love, why not combine them!
The handles on the scissors were completely Justin’s doing. He did a GREAT job and I love it!
