Tiny semicolon temporary tattoo. Nº of tattoos 3 Size 0.2 in / 0.5 cm (height) Though small in size, our tiny semicolon temporary tattoo is enormous in meaning. In 2013, a nonprofit organization called Project Semicolon encouraged people to draw a semicolon on themselves to raise awareness for mental illness, suicide, and self-harm. The movement caught on and now semicolon tattoos are commonly chosen to show support for those with mental illness. In grammar, a semicolon is used to join two sentences that are very closely connected. A semicolon indicates that the thought or idea is not yet complete, even if the sentence could be. Project Semicolon expressed it like this: “A semicolon represents a sentence the author could’ve ended but chose not to. The author is you and the sentence is your life.” Undoubtedly, the semicolon is a heavy and important symbol in this context. If you or a close friend or family member have struggled with mental illness, you might choose this tattoo as a way to show your support and lend some strength. Our semicolon temporary tattoo comes in a set of three, so you can experiment with different placements before getting permanent ink or share one with a friend. If you’re looking for fake tattoos that won’t cost the earth, you’ve found the right company. Our temporary tattoos are 100% recyclable, plastic-free, and created from eco-friendly materials, including non-toxic adhesives and soy-based inks.
