\"softer-tattoos1\" <\/a>Sarah Evans received a tattoo for her 18th birthday as a gift from her mother. She chose a skull with tiger lilies and had it placed behind her left shoulder.<\/p>\n

Today, Sarah is a tattoo artist at Sacred Art in Pen Argyl, PA and wears her personality and passion on her sleeve. With a half tattoo sleeve on one arm and a full sleeve on the other, Sarah\u2019s original skull and tiger lilies continue to grow.<\/p>\n

However, un-like the old \u201cguns-and-roses, tough guy\u201d image of the past, Sarah represents a new trend in tattooing. Using your sleeve-art to create harmony with personal style.<\/p>\n

The result? A softer, more balanced and feminine look.<\/p>\n

\"softer-tattoos2\" <\/a>Most of Sarah\u2019s wardrobe comes from the Goodwill Store in Bethlehem, PA where she and her mom are \u201cregulars\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cI come here all the time-I can always find something new and different,\u201d said Sarah. \u201cIt\u2019s funny because I don\u2019t know what I like more\u2026hunting for cool pieces or the actual piece itself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Visit your local Goodwill Thrift Store to create harmony and discover the softer side of tattoos. Endless styles, colors and fabrics await.<\/p>\n

Follow these three tips to create your harmony\u2026.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Choose colors that complement your tattoo. Wear the color right next to your tattoo.<\/li>\n
  2. Choose designs the same scale as the tattoo. If your tattoo is intricate, choose intricate prints. If your tattoo is bold, choose bold prints.<\/li>\n
  3. Create balance. Wear print designs opposite your tattoo and solid colors next to your tattoo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All clothing is from the racks of the Goodwill Store in Bethlehem, PA.<\/em><\/p>\n
