Mercury Tattoo Studio Presents:

A Valentines Day Benefit for Every Mother Counts

On Friday, February 15th Mercury will be donating the proceeds of the day to a dear friend that is participating in the Every Mother Counts Half Marathon. Those Proceeds will come from a variety of areas. We of course will be tattooing and will be creating Valentines themed designs for the day. Also we will have prints available and any sold that day will also go to support this great cause.

As for the tattooing, we are trying something different this time around.  We have gathered and arranged 89 designs from various old valentines day cards. The plan is to try to keep the designs in the price range of $100 - $300. The images are varying in intensity and detail. Some are already good to go and will read well as a tattoo. Some will need to be redrawn so they will hold up and read well as a tattoo. We will also make whatever adjustments we need to in order to get the design to fit the spot you want.  This seemed like a fun way of providing a large variety of really unique designs that we will have a blast doing. If you are interested in getting tattooed please contact us via email mercurytattoo1@mac.com as soon as possible with the following information:

1. Which design are you most interested in? Each one has a number associated with it.

2. What size are you looking to have it done? Keep in mind, the more detailed the image the more we may have to make adjustments to make it work well as a tattoo.

3. Where do you want to get it? Not all of the designs will fit the spot perfectly as is, but we will happily redraw the design to suit the spot.

4. Do you have an artist preference? if so, let us know. If not, we can figure it out with you.

5. Do you have a specific time you wanted to come in? It may turn into a hectic day so it is hard to guarantee a particular time, but we will do our best to keep things running smooth.

     We may still be able to draw and tattoo ideas worked out on the day of the event, but it will surely help to have advanced notice with the answers to the above questions. We are willing to do whatever we can to make the benefit successful as well as create some damn cool tattoos in the process!

     Below are the selections we put together. They are a mix of styles and themes for sure, so take your time going through them all. There is bound to be something that pulls at your heart this Valentines Day!!
