There are a wide range of options for designs, but typically those that are horizontally oriented work the best for this placement.
Short phrases are often used in collarbone tattoos. Phrases used here are often words of affirmation such as “beautiful” or reminders to “breathe” or “love yourself.” You might even want to write your quote in a foreign language. The quote you choose should be short enough to practically fit in the area and hold personal meaning to you. Also choose a font that is readable, aesthetically pleasing to you and that won’t look dated.
A line of musical notes might be the perfect tattoo for a musician. Be sure to use a line from a song that you have written or that holds a special place in your heart. Maybe you have a special wedding song you’d like to always remember.
Animal tattoos are also popular for the collarbone. A series of paw prints walking across your chest, just above your heart, might symbolize your love and devotion for a pet. A line of birds sitting on a line or in flight is another fun design.
A heartbeat tattoo is another possible tattoo option. The jagged line mimics the line formed when a heart beat is recorded on an EKG machine. This design is often placed on the left collarbone, which is located above the heart. It can represent a remembrance of a loved one who has passed away or an eternal love for someone.
Other horizontally oriented designs can be incorporated into a quote or can be used alone. Feathers, flowering branches, arrows, decorative scrolls or waves of water are all possible options for a collarbone tat. Get inspired for your clavicle body art with these gorgeous ideas.
