60+ Beautiful Butterfly Tattoos That Will Capture Your Heart

Tattoos of butterflies are some of my favorite tattoos. That’s probably because I love the butterfly itself. Fun fact, butterflies can only see red, green, and yellow.

What I love about the butterfly tattoo ideas I’m sharing below is the creativity that was involved in the designs.

It was my goal to include traditional butterfly tattoos, but to also include tattoo ideas that you haven’t seen before, I think that goal was accomplished with this collection.

1. Watercolor Butterfly with Floral Wing
