Apr 22 2016 - 12:00pm

The magic of fairy tales definitely did not begin with Disney. With the countless reimaginings of the stories [1], sometimes we forget that our favorite fairy tales were created by legends like Hans Christian Andersen, the Brothers Grimm, Lewis Carroll, and many more. While some aspects of these tales made their way into Disney movies [2] — the rose does indeed play a huge part in the original Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty did prick her finger on spindle, and a pumpkin carriage makes an appearance in Cinderella [3] — much has changed over time as well. Take a look at these gorgeous tattoos that celebrate the origins of the fairy tales we know and love.
