Daisies and butterflies make for a really great tattoo. After all, both elements are delicate and beautiful, making the perfect artistic companions in your daisy tattoo.

There are a few different kinds of tattoo designs to choose from with such daisy tattoos.

If you would like to go the traditional route, you can simply have the butterflies flying over the daisies or perched on top of the flowers.

In case you would like a more creative idea, you can have the daisies be a part of the butterfly design - one of the butterfly's wings could be made up of dainty daisy flowers.

Mixed Bouquet Tattoos

If you love daisies, there is also a good chance that you have a few other favorite flowers. So, why not put all of these flowers together like a bouquet.

Mixed floral tattoos aren't just beautiful, they can also have a deep meaning. This is because each type of flower has its own significance.

Due to this, you can gather up the ones that have the most meaning to you and include all these other flowers in the same tattoo.

Keep in mind that this idea works really well for small tattoo designs as well. As long as you choose small flowers for your design, you can actually get a very delicate tattoo.
