OH, HELLO THERE…
It’s almost summer and I have to say, I’m feeling a little sassy (maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s just the vodka/heat/my consistent disgust of Ron Desantis?) Apologies (not really though) in advance for whatever I’m about to say and how I may say it (and how it’s spelled) 😂
If you’re new here, WELCOME and THANK YOU for your interest in my tattoos, artwork and otherwise. My hopes for you being here is so that YOU DON’T MISS OUT when my books open, when I announce a guest spot or debut some cute new merch. Instagram has been less than dependable for us small business owners lately and a cute newsletter straight to your inbox, packed with real time info, is the cure.
For my Texas clients, I think of y’all frequently and fondly. I will have some NEWS next quarter that you may be particularly interested in so sit tight.
Those of you that have made it all the way to NYC or the Capital District to get tattooed in the past few years, I want you to know that my heart explodes with absolute joy EVERY TIME this happens.
I’m also super grateful for all of the locals I’ve been lucky enough to tattoo both in Brooklyn and the Cap District. You guys are making me feel super welcome back in my home state. Not all people may get me or the work I do but the ones that do- DAAAAAYUM- do we work well together ❤️
My mind has also been blown by the roster of travelers coming in to get work done. Both Carolinas, Florida, Colorado, Maryland, Massachusetts, Connecticut DC, California, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Alabama (and of course the states I didn’t remember) I APPRECIATE YOU!
If you’re here to get on my books, you’re getting warmer, just scroll onward.
If you love music and baked goods as much as I do, there’s a wee gift for yous guys too, all the way at the end 🥳
❤️, Stacey
OK, NOW WHO WANTS TO GET TATTOOED???

I’ll be booking for both the Capital District + Brooklyn at this time.
Just as a refresher/reminder/heads up, MOST of my tattooing time is spent in the Capital District, aka the Albany/Schenectady/Troy area.
I’m in Brooklyn once a month, typically for 3-4 days.
PLEASE keep these nuggets of info in mind while booking:
It’s possible that your submission may not be chosen but you’ll hear from us either way.

I am booking for July-September ONLY- with the exception of the few rogue dates available in June (see below.)
If you need to push your appointment further out, you may re-submit your idea when my books open again.Weekend dates book up instantly. You’ll have a much better chance of getting an appointment if you’re flexible with dates and times.
Please include ALL of the info about your tattoo in the description.
We book based on the time estimated to complete your tattoo.Holding out on details changes the timing significantly and may result in a reschedule.
KEWPIE TATTOOS ARE NOT TINY. If you’re thinking about getting one, be sure to have a free space about the size of a dollar bill available.

NICE STUFF
It’s all baked goods. Sorry…
Not sorry.
All three of these gems are in Albany proper and are a short walk to the Capital Complex which looks like a sci-fi, dystopian, Harry Potter fever dream. Totally worth checking out high on sugar.
Lynn & Bam are two of my most favorite humans that I’ve met here in Albany and once you’ve had their cheesecake, you’ll understand why.
Follow them here.
Just a wee scratch bakery tucked in to Lark St, packed with bagels and pastry that I have very pleasant dreams about.
Bagel and Monkey Bread porn here.
New to Lark St. and my heart!
Vegan donuts with that satisfying squish (IYKYK) I’m seriously gonna stop writing and go get some rn ok byeeeee!
Donut forget to follow HERE!
SUMMAH PLAYLIST
Oh hey, you made it and I’m so glad you did.
The 2023 Summer Playlist is full of booty shakers, trippy beats and road trip karaoke belters. The best part is that it starts off by paying tribute to the QUEEN OF ROCK AND ROLL with one of my favorite Tina songs from when I was a wee lass stealing cassettes from my dad’s stash. ENJOY! ❤️
