Ideas for a Cute Small Tattoo

The ancient art of tattooing is a popular form of body modification, but not always socially acceptable. This problem makes small tattoos an ideal compromise between personal and social needs. Small tattoos are easy to cover up for work, low in price compared to other tattoos and compact enough to fit almost anywhere on your body. For the best results, always check the license and cleanliness of any ink shop before getting work done.
  1. Aquatic Tattoos

    • Aquatic tattoos take inspiration from underwater animals, such as dolphins, fish and whales. They're popular for big and small tattoos, as well as monotone or color ink work. A small, gray jumping dolphin with two baby dolphins trailing behind provides a delicate design on your foot or shoulder blade. Two kissing tropical fish with colorful tails that form a tiny heart shape provide a small and sweet design on your wrist or hip.

    Celestial Tattoos

    • Star, sun and moon celestial tattoos are popular for assorted decorative and symbolic reasons. Shooting stars, tribal suns and moon-decorated suns are all common small designs. A small silvery crescent moon with a tiny cow that looks like it's jumping over the bottom sliver of the moon provides a classic celestial tattoo with a cute comic twist. A small, red shooting star with a trail of tiny, rainbow-colored stars provides a colorful celestial design around your ankle or wrist bone.

    Fantasy Tattoos

    • Fantasy-themed tattoos are popular for many different art styles, but are especially popular for cute small tattoos with a feminine flair. A tiny blonde-haired fairy with pink wings and a pink petal dress creates a sweet design on your ankle, wrist or stomach. A small, cartoonish, white unicorn head with a silvery mane and horn provides a classic design on a shoulder blade or upper arm. A grinning green baby troll in a white diaper provides a humorous design for any body area.

    Flower Tattoos

    • Small tattoos with floral designs come in enough shapes and colors to suit any style. A small daisy with white petals and a yellow center provides a simple design for any body area. A small golden sunflower between two tiny white daisies provides a country design for your lower back. A pink pansy with a smiling cartoon face, stem body, leaf arms and root legs provides a comical design on your hip or shoulder.

    Humorous Tattoos

    • It takes a serious sense of humor to have a comical design permanently inked on your skin, but a small humorous tattoo can also provide a unique design instead of a common theme everyone seems to choose. A tiny ladybug tattoo on a small skin lump provides a three-dimensional design that looks real and drives people crazy as they wait to see the bug move. A small, yellow happy face on your middle finger has a satirical design that sends a definite message.
