Handwriting Tattoo Placement

Post date: 2017-12-13 17:23:06

After thinking about it for several years I've decided to finally get a memorial tattoo for my grandmother. I have her handwriting saying "I love you - Grandma" which I would like. However I am having trouble with placement ideas as well as if I should add a symbol with it because I feel weird about just text tattoos.

I know a tattoo artist could probably help me with a lot of these questions but I feel like I am still kind of in the planning conceptual stage and would just like some different ideas/input to help firm up my idea.

I know for sure I want the "I love you - Grandma". But I have also been thinking about the idea of tying in a carnation (her favorite flower) or a blue bird. Or possibly both?

Also having trouble with placement ideas. Typically I've seen the handwriting tattoos on the arm or wrist but I would like it someplace easily coverable but still easily visible to me when I want to see it. This leads me to think maybe ankle? But I suppose that would depend on size and imagery as well.

Looking for ideas, pictures, suggestions, etc for tying the words together with flowers and/or a bird, as well as thoughts and advice on placement. If it is relevant, I already have a small tattoo on my left ankle.
