Discreet placement for this tiny tattoo?

[Clementine]

I want to get a really small tattoo of something like this. Like 1.5". But I cant think of a discreet placement for it. Maybe the base of my neck or between my shoulder blades. But I'm not sold on that yet.

Dont get anything on your neck head or hands. Just above the ankle, just above the elbow ditch, just above the elbow on the back, just above the knee and on the wrist are good places for smaller tattoos. 

Keep in mind places that will disrupt future bigger tattoos, even if you dont want anything big yet. I would not recommend the back for that reason.

I see the wisdom in not doing the back in case it gets in the way of larger tattoos. Although at the moment I only want a handful of small  tattoos, I might change my mind in the future. Although I really like the look of tattoos along the spine, I also like the idea of just above the elbow on the back, so I might use that.

Upper thigh. If your a man or woman, no one will ever see that spot unless you really get into the effort of showing it off.

I also don't think it will translate into a nice tattoo. Change your mind and get a panther with a dagger.

I like the idea but not sure a tattoo of that image would read as a book. Maybe if it were at a slight angle. A good tattooer could advise on this and draw up a nice design. Smaller tattoos look best in smaller areas of the body. Wrist, ankle, back of neck, etc.

Yeah, I still havent found the right image. Maybe something like this? Just the one book.

The good thing is you don't need to. Find the right artist and tell them what you want.

Original image can be done if done correctly. Found this:

aside from that particular location having a fairly high probability of not lasting very long on many people . . .

I do love the elbow idea. And I found this image which I think would look awesome going up the back of my upper arm, scaled down.

I like the idea of doing it on the heel...although I think that would hurt a lot. idk i like small tattoos in smaller areas. 

i'm not sure if that picture will translate to a good, small tattoo...but you could probably get a variant of it.

keep in mind, it may need to be bigger than you originally hoped in order to include detail.

I have a tattoo on my ankle. It was my very first, now covered up by a bigger one.
