Well I told the hubby about my "product idea" and he gives me this surprised look and tells me that it sounds great. He always seems shocked when I have good ideas[emoji57]
Anyways. He said there is a guy at his work that has a couple of patents and is going to get some advice from him.
You can search existing patents for free on the website @JoesMum gave me, so I have to see if someone beat me to it.
If there is not a patent on it, then it's on to the prototype.
I am quite intimidated by the whole process. A patent lawyer would make things easier but they are so expensive, I don't want to waste my money until I know if this can be done.

Can you give us any clues?
I mean is it baby, pet or ?

Good luck!! I hope everything works out.

Each to their own.
I think Ed's got some, John's got several, just not my 'thing'.

Although tattoos are not my thing either, I recall 2 situations where they’ve been sort of therapeutic.
One was a woman who had been obese but lost a huge amount of weight. She was left with all the flaps of stretched out skin, so she had the skin flaps removed. When the doctors removed all the stretched out skin from her abdomen, they took her belly button along with it, so her abdomen was completely smooth. It really bothered her a lot not to have a belly button: it made her feel like a freak. So she bought several Playboy magazines and picked out what she thought was the prettiest belly button, and got it tattooed on her belly! She felt MUCH better having a belly button again!!!!!

That’s a really cool story! And hey, no more belly button lint!

I've also heard of people using tattoos to cover scars and birth marks.
I don't have anything against tattoos. In fact I would love to get one. The problem is that as an artist if I make a design and they don't do a good enough job it would drive me crazy having it.

It's defiantly something where you have to place your trust in that person. With me is my sister so that helps lol. Also she is an awesome artist. She can free hand tattoo better than most with an applied print.

But they change shape as you do!
And they fade.
And go wrinkly!
