Natalie Dean: I chose this tattoo because my cat, Penny, is nearly 14 years old and I know I won’t have her forever, so having a piece of her means a lot. I got rosemary sprigs for my grandmother, Rosemary, as well as my May birth flowers (Hawthorns). I also got sunflowers because I grow them in the summer — I wanted things that brings me joy.

Lucia Breeden: My sister and I wanted sister tattoos, but we eventually thought it’d be great to involve our mom. So after a long time convincing her that’d it’s be fun, she agreed. Mine says “little sister,” my sister’s is “big sister” and my mom’s is “mama.”

Madison Gaylin: For my sunflower, it was inspired by my grandma singing “You are my sunshine” song to me growing up. For other one, I found the quote in my junior year of high school and it’s just stuck with me and made me have a constant reminder – if I’m not trying my hardest how am I going to know what I can handle?
