Artist Creates 8 Tattoo Designs that Are Pure Michigan

Sometimes, I really love Tiktok.

Now, before I show you these tattoos I want to stress...these are Shelby's designs. They have their own online shop with stickers, paintings, and more.

My personal favorites are the "proud troll" and "you are here" tattoo designs.

But, the question is, do you really love Michigan enough to permanently mark your body with a tattoo? If not, why not start with a sticker instead? That way, if your affinity for the mitten state suddenly sways, you can just...cover it up with another sticker (way cheaper than tattoo removal):
