The bottom portion of this is a coverup, the second picture shows the before. But it then continues up and the different elements tell her love story 😍 She brought in a layout idea, and we molded it to her in a way that it lays and reads so nicely both standing straight up as well as bending and moving, which I love.
I was putting the hurtin on her, but she sat through it like a beast!

A story from Jason: Our new light switch covers a

A story from Jason:

Our new light switch covers are quite old. My wife already had them in her collection when we met 20 years ago.

Yep, in June it will be 20 years since I saw some cute hippy chicks dancing at an upstairs bar in Rehoboth. I missed my chance to hit the dance floor, but God arranged an introduction later in the evening on the boardwalk.

It wasn't love at first sight, but I didn't look anywhere else after that night.

We kissed, got married, had a couple kids, surprised ourselves with homeschooling, surprised the fuck outta me by becoming Christians, and celebrated ten years of marriage.

It was a ride.

A few months after that anniversary, Mary got sick and left us to join Jesus in Heaven.

Our ride was over.

I had no imagination for what was next, I chose to trust in God's plan for me and our sons.

After a lot of wandering, that plan came into focus four years ago when I met Kristen. Before we became romantic, I knew she would have her own studio. Once we kissed, I knew I wanted to help her open that studio (I mean, not in that moment, she's a great kisser, there still ain't a thought in my head when we kiss).

By Her Hand Tattoos will celebrate two years of business in a few days and I am deeply blessed to have partnered with an incredible artist and inspirational soul.

Cheers to relics from a past life adorning our present journey.
