A Collection Of Custom Jewish Tattoo Designs, 2020-2023

a collection of custom Jewish tattoo designs, 2020-2023

reminder: custom tattoo designs are for client use only. it's disrespectful to get an artist's work tattooed without permission, and incredibly so to steal a design that was made for someone else. if you're inspired by these, you can commission me to create something for you!

descriptions & details below

as a Jew with (Jewish) tattoos, i'm delighted whenever someone commissions me for a design that speaks to some core aspect of their personal relationship with Judaism. the first of these is an angelic meditation on the phrase "hineni" ("here i am") & its connection to fearless self-embodiment, the next two are illustrations for passages from the Talmud (one about being self-made, featuring the miraculous "first tongs", the other about the life cycle of Jewish demons), and the last is a more traditional tree of life with torah scroll.

if i had the time/money for a tattoo apprenticeship, i would love to learn & be able to do this work myself - as it stands, i'm honored to be part of it as a designer & grateful to the talented tattooers who have inked or will ink my pieces!

Ambulance Bill Passed Due

Donate to ambulance bill, organized by Varda Cassar

I received a final notice for an ambulance bill which I can't afford, I didn't receive the previous letter… Varda Cassar needs your support

I hate to log back in to Tumblr just to beg for help, but I have 14 days to cough up $1200 for an ambulance bill.

I would really appreciate if you reblogged this for reach. Thank you 💓💓💓

Almost done with my crochet strip lace cotton ribbon for raising awareness of the ongoing hostage crisis. It still needs to be starched and sewn in place. Still not sure where I can ask to have it displayed, but I’ll figure it out. Let me know if you have any ideas.

More Jewish sculpey projects.

Can't make a golem without a rabbi. Additionally, some pickles and gefilte fish for shabbos and a dreidel out of clay (unfortunately not good for spinning, favors gimel quite a bit)

Turn your handwriting into a font

I discovered this by accident and I thought it was really funny and cute:

1. Download the template from MyScriptFont website

2. Write out the alphabet and numbers in your style, using a black marker (felt pen). This is mine:

3. Scan the template  4. Upload to the MyScriptFont website, name it, set the format and click “send file” 5. Download it to your computer and install

And check out my result!
