OF TATTOOS AND BOOKS.

How wonderful are these 50 tattoos? All of them inspired by childhood favourite reads, I think my favourites must be numbers 4 (The Chronicles Of Narnia) and 5 (Peter Pan). What about you?Oh, and which childhood read would prompt you to have a tattoo. 


Me?

I rather like this (though perhaps without the figure bottom right) in honour of Enid Blyton's The Enchanted Wood books........

  2. Many of these are gorgeous (and clever)! I like many of them, and don't have a favorite.

  4. I love tattoos and think these are wonderful!

    Despite my affection for Pooh, I believe my favorites are Waldo and the lamppost from Narnia.

  14. Hi Tracy,

    I really dislike tattoos and could never have gone out with, or married a man with a tattoo.

    Even worse are tattooed women, despite their usual plea of 'it's small and tasteful'!

    If I had to choose from your selection though, for sheer nostalgia and because I am a Disneyholic, I would choose 41 and 42 'Winnie The Pooh'.

    If you wanted my choice based on the design I consider to be the most skillful and attractive, my choice would be 15 'The Secret Garden'

    Nice post, completely different.

    Yvonne.
