Santa Claus Tattoos Have Come to Town

thetattooedarchivist

I’ve already covered Christmas’ arch-nemesis, the Grinch and the collector of evil children, Krampus, but now that it’s Christmas Eve, it’s time to focus on the fat man himself, Santa Claus.

On Instagram there are far fewer Santa tattoos compared to other Christmas themes – did he not give people what they wanted as children?

For those who still hold Santa dear to their hearts, they’ve certainly been creative, taking inspiration from vintage imagery or even letting their tattoo artist have free rein with the piece.

While you wait for Santa Claus to come to town, start thinking about a design concept for your own Saint Nick tattoo.
