Designs: tap one to try it on
7 designs. Tap the one you like, upload your own photo and see for free how the tattoo will look on your body.
A single feather or small birds taking off from a feather are designs that take up little space but say a lot. The wrist, collarbone and back of the shoulder are this theme's favorite spots; fine line versions look elegant even at small sizes.
Things to know about Bird and Feather Tattoos
Flight direction changes the feel
Birds flying upwards and outwards create a sense of openness. Rotate the design in the try-on tool and see which direction looks more natural on your body.
Give a small flock room to breathe
In small flocks, the space between the birds matters; tiny birds packed too closely can turn into a single blot over the years.
Old school or fine line?
An old school swallow with bold outlines reads even from a distance and lasts for years; fine line birds are more delicate but need to be done a bit larger.
