I'm looking to get my kids names wrapped around my ankle like an ankle bracelet and I want
This symbol to be like a charm hanging off it.

I'm looking to jazz it up a bit.
Any suggestions?

    Go to a good tattoo parlor they will draw it as many times as it takes to find what you want. And if they dont go to a different one.

    Unless the artist is really bored and needs the money, most of them don't have the patience for this. And unless, it something really creative and you allow the artist to take creative liberties they find these types of designs pretty boring to do (just being honest). When you go in you need to have a very clear idea of what you want, if you don't like something they will change it around for you, but most won't take the time to " change it as many times as you want" most tattoo artist are too egotistical for that.. This however is considered the slow season, so find you an artist that is bored ...lol


    How do I know this you ask? Well, I'm pretty tatted up, and in My earlier years I dated my fair share of tattoo artists.

    Well. We are a very artistic area so I have plenty of shops I can go to.

    If that's what you want I say go for it and find an artist who will do it for you. What some may consider to be "boring" might have great sentimental value to others. And there is nothing boring about having your child's name tattooed on you.
