Learn about getting family tattoos that represent your family in some way. Family means many different things depending on who you talk to. You know who you feel closest to and who you consider your family. If you have started your own family of course you can get a tattoo of your immediate household. But it gets more complicated if you are not sure what to include in your family tattoo.

  2. Tattoo photo Take in your favorite family photo to the tattoo artist. If you have kids, take in a photo of their face and tell the tattoo artist what you want them to use with the photo. Get your kids initials beneath the tattoo photo if you want.
  3. Athletic family If you have a family who is very athletic - maybe one takes ballerina classes, one is in to basketball and one karate - you get a tattoo of the garments you wear for those sports activities.

Get the blazers symbol with your families initials inside the family tattoo. You will all get a kick out of your favorite sport and initials being tattooed on you.
