Quirk of the Month: Choose Your Own Tat-venture
No, I am not over it. Temporary metallic tatts were all the rage in 2014, but here’s a new book to prove that it’s more than just a temporary craze. Choose Your Own Tat-venture is a fun activity book for people like me who just can’t commit to getting a real tatt.
This book contains one metallic tattoo sheet, three colored tattoo sheets, two DIY blank tatt sheets, step-by-step instructions, and fashion editorials for ideas. Its price tag of of ₱195 is a steal! Designer brands such as Lulu DK sells metallic tatt sheets at two for ₱1,200, Chinatown sells them at three for ₱100, while for bazaars and online resellers, it’s ₱100-200 per sheet.
Choose Your Own Tat-venture’s designs are different from the usual gold bohemian feathers and Egyptian patterns you see everywhere. They have colorful unicorns, owls, cats, inspirational statements, and hipster icons like the handlebar mustache and cassette tape.
I’m looking forward to creating my own unique designs using their blank temporary tatt sheets, but I will enlist the help of my artist friend, Picasas. Otherwise, it will seem like a kid just drew random shapes on my skin with a sharpie.
The Choose Your Own Tat-venture book is available at leading bookstores and magazine stands all over the Philippines for ₱195.

I so want this for me and my sisters! Pwede to sa bonding time with them. Ang cute ng tattoos. Gusto ko rin sana nung metallic tattoos kaso it isn’t allowed in the office. Unless I put it in my back. I want one in my wrist and arms. 🙂 Sayang lang di gaanong tumatagal. But still, it’s so cute. 🙂 I love the 1001 awesome stickers. 🙂
Hi, how many days/hours do they stay on your skin? 🙂
When on the hands and fingers, it easily peels off. 🙁 But for the arms and back, it can last for over a day. 🙂
Wow, this is so cute activity book. Need to check this out for me and for my sister, sure we’re going to have fun indeed. Thanks for sharing this.
Wow!!! This is so cool! Really perfect for those who can’t commit to getting a real tatt like me! I remember when I was a kid, I used to buy bubble gums sa sari-sari store with free tattoos which could be easily applied and removed by washing it with water! And then nung highschool, my friends and I used to draw figures on our wrist using our pens and ta-da.. We have tatts! Hayy.. Good old days! And now, meron nang mettalic tatts which are very nice and perfect also for different fashion styles! ??
