Not everyone's cup of tea but.....

[LilyMay73]

I'm putting my hard earned non smoking savings to really good use this year and although it's not for everyone I wanted to share a pic of what I've been able to afford. I love tattoos but due to smoking I hadn't been able to afford more than the tiniest single tattoo for 20 years. I've now had this lovely piece done in time for my wedding........I'm loving being smoke free

Wow! That's unusual and beautiful! I hope you have a dress that will show your tats off to their best advantage.

As you say, not everyone's cup of tea but it's one way to spend all the money you've saved - and a good, permanent reminder of how much you wasted previously!

Thanks everyone, my dress will show it off beautifully it took ten hours in total droopy, 1 sitting of seven hours and a second one of three hours to finish it off. Wasn't too painful, just the last few minutes of the first sitting almost made me cry

OMG 10 hours..... you must have the patience of a saint I think I would have been crying after about 10 seconds and not stopped until it was finished... but then I am big girls blouse
