Today’s a day of celebration associated with green beer, parades, music, leprechauns, pots of gold and massive parties. Whether you’re Irish and celebrating your heritage, or ‘Irish for a day,’ today is bound to be a great day! Whether you are sporting your favourite green clothing, dying your hair emerald green in the spirit of the season, or kicking back with a pint of green beer, there are many ways to show your love of the holiday, including Irish-inspired tattoos!

It wouldn’t be a holiday on Alternatively Speaking without somehow connecting it to tattoos, right?
I spent yesterday searching the internet for Irish inspired and St Patrick’s Day inspired tattoos. This includes leprechauns, shamrocks, and Celtic designs. This is a fun mix of bigger works and more subtle pieces, black and white and colour work, a little something for everyone!
I say this on every tattoo roundup post, but I’ll add it again… I source all images that I share. That being said, there are times that I choose to share a tattoo off of Pinterest or a third-party site that doesn’t include information about the actual artist. If you ever see an image that you recognize first hand, please fire me a message and we can take steps to verify and then credit the artist. I am all for giving tattoo artists the credit that they deserve!
Let’s Celebrate St. Patricks Day with These 35+ Irish Inspired Tattoos:
Did you enjoy these Irish-inspired tattoos? I am always looking for new tattoo roundup ideas! If there is an idea you would like to see, please swing over to the Contact page and drop me a line with your suggestion! Furthermore, I LOVE to include the tattoos of my readers. If you have tattoos you would like considered for upcoming tattoo roundups, let me know!
I would also like to take this time to announce a new series of posts that you will see surfacing in the coming months. Sticking with our love of tattoos, I would like to start featuring some of the amazing artists behind these creations. If you are a tattoo artist or know of a tattoo artist that would like to be featured on the blog let me know! Each artist will be sent a list of questions to answer, and will also be asked to provide some examples of their work to share. I am really looking forward to this one, and have already reached out to a couple artists to get it started. Stay tuned for ‘Behind the Ink’!
What do you think of getting holiday-themed tattoos? Would you consider getting one? If so, what holiday would you choose? Which of the above Irish-inspired tattoos was your favourite?

I love the way that a single image, like a clover, can be interpreted so many different ways
These are all very cute and so colorful.
There are some that are so adorable!

Awesome! One side of my family is Irish so I have always loved all things Irish
These are some pretty tattoos! I like the small black & white one behind the ear the most. Just because it’s actually quite simple! ~
Sometimes the simplest designs turn out to be the best! My wrist piece is a simple black design for that reason
Ooh I do like a shamrock tattoo! Great selection here.
I was pleasantly surprised with just how many I was able to easily find online – made it super easy to put the round up together!
