Tattoo - Visual Art Form

Hope for Japan!

Hope for Japan!

What a day we had yesterday! 35 tattoo's and 31 people got tattooed. I have no idea how many people actually came through the door but I know it was a lot. Before we go any further I just want to say thank you so much to ALL the people who showed their support yesterday. Thank you to those who got tattooed and thank you to those of you who stopped by and made donations. What an awesome turn out we had, we had people lining up from 8:30am to get tattooed! I also want to say I am so sorry to those who missed out, we ended up having to turn a lot of people away and I feel bad about that. But the guys tattooed from 9:30am till around 6:30pm, they worked their butts off and it just wasn't possible to do too much more. But we aren't going anywhere and I encourage those people to still come back and see us again another time!

So we made a grand total of $2851.60!! Not bad considering tattoo's were only $80 each. I am pretty damn proud of those efforts for just one day! I will be donating the money as soon as Monday and every cent will be going to the Japan relief effort.

Here is a bunch of pics from yesterday:

This jar was full to the brim by the end of the day, well done people!


Tash pretending to tattoo Tom (who got his first tattoo yesterday- actually 2 tattoo's for his first)- well done! Don't know how much damage that finger is going to do though.

A bunch of lovely ladies waiting to be tattooed
Sorry but the ice box (eski) has to make it in here, who has a coffin to keep drinks in? US, that's who! I am so keeping this at the shop permanently. Don't know where I will put it but it stays! I might even put pillows and blankets in it and use it as a bed.
Our two best workers for the day!! Thanks so much to the lovely Tash and Amy, who spent the whole day helping out! Love you guys!!
