The more unusual the charm on your pendant, the more compliments -- or at least comments -- you're likely to get on your accessorizing. Somewhat off the beaten path of fashion, these tools tattoos might inspire you to drop the delicate chain entirely and opt for a design that can be worn directly on your skin.
Temporary tattoos are certainly not new, but designer Fiona Richards demonstrates more creative ways that they might be worn. In particular, the placement of her Tattly illustrations on the upper chest is quite unusual, sufficing to replace a necklace in a very modern way. The three woodsman-y tools tattoos feature a hammer, a wrench and a couple of axes. They have a masculinity about them that makes them even more iconic.
