Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who has a great interest in tattoo design and body art, there are plenty of meaningful and personal gift ideas that can enhance his passion and make him feel valued and understood.

1. Tattoo Design Book or Magazine Subscription: Get him a comprehensive tattoo design book or a subscription to a magazine focused on body art. These resources will inspire him with new ideas, and he can use them as reference material for his own designs.

2. Tattoo Gift Voucher: Consider giving him a gift voucher for a session at a reputable tattoo studio. This will allow him to get a tattoo from a professional artist of his choice, giving him an opportunity to craft his own unique piece of body art.

3. Tattoo Equipment: If your son is interested in pursuing tattooing as a career or a hobby, you could surprise him with some high-quality tattoo equipment, such as a tattoo gun kit, ink set, sterilization supplies, and practice skins. However, make sure he has expressed a genuine interest in tattooing before investing in this kind of gift.

4. Tattoo Art Print: Look for a beautifully framed tattoo art print that he can display in his room or studio. Choose a design that matches his style and interests, and make sure it's signed by the artist if possible. This not only enhances his space but also provides inspiration and appreciation for the art form.

5. Tattoo Care Kit: Help your son take care of his tattoos by putting together a personalized tattoo care kit. Include items like tattoo-friendly lotion, aftercare ointments, sunscreen with high SPF, and gentle soap. This thoughtful gift shows that you not only support his interest but also care about his well-being.

6. Art Classes or Workshops: Encourage his artistic abilities by enrolling him in art classes or workshops that focus on tattoo design or other related subjects. These classes can provide him with valuable knowledge and skills, and may even spark new ideas and creative techniques.

7. Tattoo Artist Mentorship: If your son is serious about pursuing a career in tattoo design, consider arranging a mentorship opportunity with an experienced tattoo artist. This mentorship can provide guidance, tips, and feedback, which are invaluable for someone starting in the industry.

Remember, it's important to respect your son's decisions regarding tattoos, ensuring that he is of legal age, and that he is making informed and thoughtful choices. By selecting a gift that supports and enhances his passion for tattoo design and body art, you are acknowledging and nurturing his interests, making it a memorable and personally meaningful Christmas gift.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
