Creativity is a key factor in sporting a unique tattoo. Not everyone is willing to give up the real estate for a big tattoo, so they opt for smaller body art ideas.
Creative tattoos can either be something clever, intuitive, one-of-a-kind, or so crazy that no one else would’ve thought of it.
For those that have a more simplistic mindset, small tattoos are favored and can be just as creative as larger tattoos.
There are hundreds of thousands of potential ideas that can be turned into a tattoo, which is why a lot of people design their own pieces to create their art and have it come to life on their body.

Small Creative Tattoo FAQs
Small creative tattoos can take as little as 5 minutes to an hour or more. For the very quick, very simple tattoos shops institute a shop minimum for time and effort.
Shop minimum prices vary from $50-80 for some stores or as much as $150 for others.
Heavy black ink designs such as roman numerals, heavy line, animal or food and hospitality tattoos can cost anywhere from the shop minimum to $250 or more.
More complex work costs around $150-$200 for an hour from a well-established, skilled professional for a small tattoo.
Highly skilled, in demand artists and single needle specialists can charge up to $500 per hour, while apprentices and less experienced artists can cost as little as $75.00 per hour and may work perfectly for your design idea.
Remember always to tip your artist! Allow 15-20% of the final price at a minimum.
As far as sizes go, a small tattoo is usually one that is 4 inches or smaller from point to point. If you’re looking to go smaller than that, a tiny tattoo is 2 inches or less.
Creative tattoos are generally those either drawn up by the customer or designed at their request by a tattoo artist. In comparison to flash tattoo ideas that you pick from a wall, small creative designs are more expensive but often entail a greater degree of personal attachment and symbolism.
