Shamrock Tattoos
There are many variations of the tattoos mentioned above. You can customize a tattoo any way you want. Tattoo artists themselves are normally very creative and can give you great ideas on how to make the tattoo idea you saw unique and fit you perfectly. Shamrock tattoos could be customized to have the names of your loved ones written along with the outside clovers, or have a dragon clutching the shamrock in its ferocious claws. A shamrock tattoo is probably the most popular of all Irish or Celtic tattoos. I myself have one on my left arm, with a tribal background. It can be interesting, unique, and very fun to customize a tattoo to fit your lifestyle.
The Luck Of The Irish
Another important and oftentimes very meaningful Irish tattoo is an Irish saying tattoo. Irish saying tattoos are usually on the back, leg, or in smaller print on the upper arm. They’re meaningful, and carry a message that the person who has the tattoo thinks is important. Not only can an Irish saying tattoo have an important meaning, but you can also customize it to your liking as well. My next tattoo will probably have a shamrock and some Irish saying inside the shamrock. The best way one can show off their heritage is by getting something representative of that heritage. Tattoos can be that representation.
Probably the best thing about Irish tattoos is that anyone can get them. Whether or not you are Irish, you can show off that lucky green leaf, or that dancing leprechaun holding his glass of golden ale. A non-Irish person can feel the luck of the Irish by getting a lucky tattoo.
