Modernization and new technology are cool but we can’t deny the fact that we sometimes miss vintage stuff. There was just something so special about it and you feel warmth in your heart whenever you remember it.
Well, the good news is that there’s a way to always be reminded of it and keep the vintage things you love safe and sound on your skin. It’s tattoos of course! And trust me, these tattoos are the closest thing to a time machine you could get!
Therefore if there’s a special vintage object or anything that reminds you of the past times, definitely think about getting it inked! Here are some cool ideas people thought of that you might like!
1. Vintage Typewriter Tattoo
Vintage typewriters are soo special and I love them! The sound of each letter being typed immediately returns you to the past. I still have one and I love using it for typing out special things for my loved ones.
2. Vintage Lantern Tattoo
Vintage lanterns are also really cool and if you’re lucky maybe your parents or grandparents still have one! This tattoo is gorgeous and has depicted it so realistically.
3. Vintage Car Tattoo
Many people love old-timers but how wouldn’t they?! Vintage cars are beyond cool and beautiful. You can tattoo the model you like the most or maybe even the special car your parents once had.
4. Vintage Cassette Tattoo
I think the universal thing when it comes to cassettes is that we all pulled the tape out of it as kids! That’s why this tattoo is so special and I also love the “Rock ‘n’ roll” sign on it. It’s even adorned with small traditional flowers!
5. Vintage Gramophone Tattoo
While we’re talking about music, let’s not forget the beautiful gramophones! Music devices have definitely gotten smaller and more practical but they kinda lost their spark. But you know what definitely has a spark? This stunning back tattoo!
6. Vintage Lamp Tattoo
Lamps are one of those things that were much more beautiful in the past than now. However, you can cherish their beauty forever on your skin with this cute tattoo.
7. Betty Boop Tattoo
Oh, the iconic Betty Boop. The tattoo is definitely another thing that’s iconic and cool! I love the pop of red and golden color in the design.
8. Sentimental Vintage Tattoos
Sentimental tattoos are really special and this one is a great example of it. A vintage photo of a grandma as a little girl in a gorgeous frame, along with the vintage small mirror, and postage stamp with birth flowers. I think it can’t get more vintage and meaningful than this!
9. Pin-Up Girl Tattoo
Pin-up girl tattoos are bold and really dope! It’s so cool and funny how even the girl has tattoos on her skin!
10. Vintage Half-Sleeve Tattoo
If you’re more of a half-sleeve girlie, this is for you! The sleeve is made of a lot of intricate vintage details with the girl portrait in focus. The colors utilized in the design are also characteristic of traditional tattoos.
11. Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Tattoo
I think there’s no girl who hasn’t seen the Strawberry Shortcake cartoon! Maybe you’ve seen the newer version of it but this here is the first Strawberry Shortcake from the 1970s! I think the whole design is just too cute to handle!
12. Vintage TV Tattoo
This vintage TV tattoo is just too cute! I can immediately remember how tough it was to adjust the antenna just right so you could watch your favorite TV show!
