Butterfly Tattoos

Butterflies are graceful and beautiful and that grace translates very well into a tattoo. The whole idea of the caterpillar transforming into the beautiful butterfly captures the heart and people love to relate to the idea. Tattooing is all about expressing yourself and many people want to express a change or a rebirth, and having a butterfly tattoo can do that.

Butterfly tattoos will look stunning whether they are inked in black only or a variety of colors are used. The size of the tattoo can vary widely depending on where it is placed. You can put a small petite butterfly on your ankle or wrist or a larger one on your shoulder or lower back. The wings on the butterfly can be placed in different positions to make it unique. You can spread them out as in full flight and color them in beautiful eye catching colors or have them tucked in a bit as if just coming out of the cocoon.

Flower butterfly tattoos are very popular among women. No matter the size or color, they are stunning and it's very easy to create a unique tattoo. The story of a butterfly is very symbolic to some women and that symbolism can be captured as body art.

The butterfly starts out as a fuzzy, squiggly caterpillar. When it is time to change it creates a cocoon and in time emerges as the beautiful butterfly. Caterpillars are basically fuzzy worms. Then they transform into the graceful, beautiful butterfly. Flower butterfly tattoos can represent a change or transformation. It can stand for a new beginning and overcoming obstacles. It's easy to see how many women might relate to this story and why the butterfly tattoo is so popular.

Even though the design type is very popular, there are many ways you can modify it so that it is a unique expression of you. Adding a flower for the butterfly to land on can increase the size of the tattoo as well as change it's meaning. You can also create a feel of the butterfly in a garden by having more than one flower. Flowers along with the butterfly can open up many possibilities of color, making a flower butterfly tattoo possibly one of the most colorful tattoos around.

The lower back, shoulder and ankle are some of the most popular spots for a butterfly tattoo. Some even have them placed on hidden areas, only seen by loved ones or close friends. No matter where they are put, they are almost always dramatic and stunning. As a female you can't go wrong with some type of a butterfly tattoo.

Have you been looking all over for a unique design? Think about adding a fairy design to it. A butterfly fairy tattoo can blend the beauty of a butterfly with the mischievousness of a fairy for a unique story. I have seen designs of fairies with very detailed butterfly wings.

A butterfly tattoo by itself is a great choice. It can represent freedom and the beauty of nature. If you take a look at butterflies in nature you will see the many different varieties. They can have so many different colors that it's hard to find two the same. To make your design unique you can do a lot of things with the wings. There are butterflies with very simple wings and some with very detailed and colorful wings.

Butterfly tattoos are very popular because you can make changes to come up with a unique design. You have an unlimited choice of colors. You can make the design larger or smaller and shape it to fit into any part on your body. If you have a butterfly fairy tattoo, you are giving it a little different twist but still keeping the main meaning the same. You can add so many other things in nature to a butterfly tattoo, such as flowers, to create a very natural and calming scene. You can start off with a small design and after awhile you can make the addition to make it larger.
