There is nothing more complex in life than the relationship of siblings, whether you have brothers, sisters, or both, it’s genuinely the most love-hate relationship one could ever have. I could fight with my sisters all day long and be annoyed by everything they do but the second they ask me to go on a coffee run or to binge-watch Netflix, I’ll do it with no hesitation. With the constant bickering and teasing comes a forever built-in bestie that is one of the few people who understands you. To solidify and celebrate a sibling bond, a matching tattoo is the cutest idea!
Now, tattoos come with a lot of decision-making. You must decide on the size, location, color, and the most challenging choice — choosing what you actually want to be branded on your body forever in the first place. Some want large, colorful pieces of artwork, but others prefer subtle and intricate tattoos that take a good eye to find. Luckily, I have found some of the sweetest sibling tattoo ideas to make your life easier. These tattoo inspirations range from sentimental pieces to fun, silly tattoos that can be sized up or down to your liking. Here are ideas for the best sibling tattoos.
- Moon & Saturn
-
This tattoo is SO Taylor Swift coded. She sings the lyrics, “Love you to the moon and Saturn,” in her song “Seven.” These two symbols are such a sweet and subtle tribute to your sibling — especially if you’re both Swifties.
- Zodiac Constellations
-
Zodiac constellation tattoos are on the rise, thanks to their dainty and whimsical nature. For this, you’d get your sibling’s zodiac constellation (or multiple, depending on how many siblings you have)!
- Birth Month Flowers
-
Birth month flower designs for tattoos are so cute and delicate. It’s perfect to do if you have multiple siblings and need a tattoo to represent all of you. You can simply have a line of flowers or put them into a bouquet design.
- Birth Order
-
This is perfect for those of you who want a subtle tattoo, but also want to honor your siblings. You can simply just get the number of your birth order or spice it up with a Roman numeral instead!
- Paper Airplanes
-
This is another simple idea that doesn’t require any personal significance for you or your sibling, but is an adorable tattoo that only you two understand nonetheless.
- Lightning Bolts
-
This idea is on brand for the fiery siblings who are always challenging one another. One sibling could have a filled-in lightning bolt and the other a non-filled one. This would look perfect on the wrist or fingers.
- Cherries
-
I had to include one for my Harry Styles-loving siblings! The simplicity of having matching red cherries is sweet, unique, and so pleasing to look at.
- Ghosts
-
Ghost tattoos are a super fun option if you and your siblings aren’t super sentimental. This idea works well whether you have one or two siblings. Plus, you can customize your ghosts from being simple to something silly and adorable.
- Fire & Ice
-
There is always one sibling who is the fire in the family who may have a temper, and the sibling who is chill as ice and can calm the other down. This tattoo is such a cool concept, and such a unique option!
- Puzzle Pieces
-
I love the idea that your sibling is a puzzle piece in your life, so this would be a sentimental idea. Have fun with this by adding some creativity to your puzzle pieces!
- Candy Hearts
-
This is a cute choice for trio siblings — the three candy hearts are to die for. Bonus points if you add “Love You Always” in each candy heart.
- Devils Roll The Dice
-
I had to end on another Taylor Swift-inspired tattoo from her hit song “Cruel Summer.” This tattoo embraces the lyric, “Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes,” which embodies the reality of sibling relationships.
