It’s more than a trend; it’s an obsession that has captivated the beauty community, and this fascination with Korean glass skin shows no signs of fading. But what does “glass skin” actually mean?

You’ll find recommendations for both natural ingredients and Korean products available on the market, so you can customize it based on your preferences.

      Step-by-Step Guide to 10-step Korean Glass Skin routine at home

      STEP 1: CLEANSING

      More precisely, the term “Double Cleansing” describes this crucial first step in the Korean glass skin routine. It involves two cleansing stages: first, using an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup, sunscreen, and impurities, followed by a foam or water-based cleanser to deeply clean the pores. Double cleansing ensures a clean slate, setting the foundation for the rest of the skincare routine and helping you achieve that flawless, glass-like finish.

      Oil Cleansing

      The first essential step in the Korean glass skin routine is oil cleansing. An oil-based cleanser gently removes makeup, dirt, and other impurities from the skin without stripping away its natural moisture. You can use a store-bought oil cleanser or make your own at home using natural oils.

      Oil cleansers are effective at dissolving impurities, leaving your skin clean yet hydrated. For a homemade cleanser, try blending coconut and castor oils — just remember to skip castor oil if you have dry skin, as it can be too drying. Olive oil is an excellent alternative for dry skin, helping maintain a soft, nourished feel.

      DIY Oil Cleanser Recipe

      1. Prepare Your Base Oil
        Start by adding cold-pressed, extra virgin coconut or olive oil to a jar or pump bottle. These oils are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and have natural antibacterial properties.
      2. Melt Coconut Oil (if using)
        If you’re using coconut oil, scoop or pump it into a bowl. Melt the oil by placing the bowl in warm water — avoid using the microwave to preserve nutrients.
      3. Combine Oils
        Add olive oil to the melted coconut oil, then transfer the mixture into a bottle. Shake well before each use, as the oils may naturally separate over time.
      4. Customizing for Skin Type
        • For Oily and Acne-Prone Skin: Add a few drops of tea tree oil to your base. Its antimicrobial and antiseptic qualities are beneficial for acne.
        • For Aging Skin: Add lavender or frankincense oil to your base for added anti-aging benefits.

      This gentle, natural oil cleanser is easy to customize and helps effectively remove impurities while nourishing your skin.

      How to Use Your Oil Cleanser
      Take about a teaspoon of the oil cleanser and gently massage it over your face using soft, circular motions. This helps lift dirt, makeup, and excess sebum from the skin. Rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove impurities and prepare your skin for the next step.

      Foam Cleansing

      The foam cleansing step purifies the skin on a deeper level, removing any leftover residue from oil cleansing and deeply cleansing the pores. This step creates a fresh, clean canvas for the remaining skincare routine. You can use a store-bought foaming cleanser or make a homemade version to suit your skin’s needs.

      DIY Foaming Face Wash

      Homemade Rice Water Face Wash Recipe

      You’ll Need:

      • Soap dispenser
      • Measuring cup
      • Spoon
      • 2/3 cup rice water
      • 1/3 cup liquid Castile soap
      • 2-3 drops of a mild essential oil (like jojoba, lavender, or moringa oil)

      Instructions:

      1. Mix Ingredients:
        Start by measuring 2/3 cup of rice water and 1/3 cup of liquid Castile soap. Pour both into a measuring cup.
      2. Add Essential Oil:
        Add 2-3 drops of your preferred mild essential oil for added nourishment and fragrance.
      3. Transfer to Dispenser:
        Pour the mixture into a soap dispenser, then gently swirl the bottle before each use to keep the ingredients well-mixed.

      Rice water is a staple in Korean skincare, celebrated for its high concentration of vitamins and minerals, which help to brighten, hydrate, and smooth the skin — an essential for achieving that luminous glass-skin look.

      How to Make Rice Water:
      To make rice water, rinse 1/2 cup of uncooked rice, then soak it in 2-3 cups of water for 30 minutes. Strain the water and store it for use as a toner, hair rinse, or as an ingredient in your skincare routine.

      STEP 2 : EXFOLIATE

      The second step in the Korean glass skin routine is exfoliation, which is essential for sloughing away dead skin cells and unclogging pores, revealing a youthful glow and radiant complexion. Exfoliating not only enhances your skin’s appearance but also improves its ability to absorb other skincare products and removes excess oil trapped in pores.

      You can choose between physical exfoliation (like scrubs or brushes) or chemical exfoliation. While traditional physical exfoliation has been a staple, the beauty world is increasingly shifting toward chemical exfoliants for their effectiveness and gentleness. Personally, I’ve become a huge fan of chemical exfoliation, but I still cherish the nostalgic appeal of coffee and orange scrubs. The delightful aromas are simply irresistible!

      Check out the recipes mentioned below—I’m sure you’ll love trying them! Just a couple of reminders: avoid exfoliating daily and concentrate on the areas that need it most. For more information on exfoliation and the latest trends, read here.

      DIY Exfoliators

      • Orange Peel Powder Face Scrub
      • Sugar Citrus Scrub
      • Gram flour and yogurt face scrub

        STEP 3: TONNER

        A toner is essential for balancing your skin’s pH levels and softening its texture. It refreshes your complexion, absorbs excess oil, minimizes the appearance of pores, and helps prevent them from clogging, which can lead to acne. Additionally, a good toner tightens the skin, enhancing its overall appearance. When choosing a toner, look for one that is both hydrating and clarifying to ensure it prepares your skin effectively for the next step in your skincare routine.

        DIY Rice Water Toner

        Rice water toner is excellent for brightening your skin and tightening large pores. Here’s how to make a DIY rice toner, which is an integral step in achieving Korean glass skin at home. When applying the toner, avoid rubbing or pulling at your skin; instead, lightly dab it on and allow it to absorb fully. Remember, do not rinse off any products after this step!

        STEP 4: ESSENCE

        Essence is a vital step in achieving Korean glass skin at home. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, think of essence as a lighter, less concentrated version of serum with a water-like consistency. It enhances the skin’s cellular renewal process, boosting elasticity and firmness while promoting a brighter complexion. Essences deliver essential moisture and target specific skin concerns, such as pigmentation and rosacea. This step has long been a cornerstone of the Korean glass skin routine, and it has recently gained worldwide popularity.

        DIY Rice Essence

        DIY Rice Water Essence Recipe

        Ingredients:

        • 1/2 tsp rice water
        • 1 tbsp glycerin
        • 3 tbsp rose water
        • 8-10 drops of jojoba oil or rose essential oil
        • Aloe vera gel (enough to achieve a slightly runny consistency)

        Instructions:

        1. Combine Ingredients:
          In a mixing bowl, add 1/2 tsp of rice water, 1 tbsp of glycerin, and 3 tbsp of rose water.
        2. Add Oil:
          Include 8-10 drops of jojoba oil or rose essential oil for added nourishment.
        3. Incorporate Aloe Vera:
          Gradually add aloe vera gel until the mixture reaches a slightly runny consistency.
        4. Blend Well:
          Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
        5. Store:
          Transfer the mixture into a pump bottle for easy application.

        This homemade essence will help hydrate your skin while targeting specific concerns, making it a fantastic addition to your Korean glass skin routine!

        STEP 5: SERUM/ AMPOULE

        An ampoule is essentially the Korean counterpart of a serum, offering a more concentrated formulation loaded with vitamins and antioxidants. Unlike essences, which are lighter, serums penetrate deeper into the skin, providing targeted treatment rather than just surface-level hydration. Serums nourish the skin, boost collagen production, and address various issues such as aging, uneven skin tone, and pigmentation. You can use ampoules both day and night; however, I personally prefer applying them at night. This allows your skin more time to absorb all the beneficial vitamins and antioxidants, enhancing their effectiveness.

        DIY Facial Serum Recipe

        Ingredients:

        • 2 tbsp rice
        • 1 cup milk
        • 4 tsp aloe vera gel
        • 2 tsp vitamin E oil
        • 2-3 drops of your favorite essential oil (optional)

        Instructions:

        1. Soak the Rice:
          Soak 2 tbsp of rice in water for 5-6 hours.
        2. Cook the Rice:
          After soaking, transfer the rice to a pan and add 1 cup of milk. Simmer on low heat until the rice is fully cooked.
        3. Strain the Liquid:
          Once cooked, strain the liquid from the rice into a separate bowl. This liquid will serve as the base for your serum.
        4. Combine Ingredients:
          Add 4 tsp of aloe vera gel, 2 tsp of vitamin E oil, and 2-3 drops of essential oil (if using) to the strained liquid.
        5. Mix Well:
          Blend all the ingredients together until well combined. You can adjust the quantity of aloe vera gel for your desired consistency.
        6. Store:
          Transfer the serum into a clean bottle or pump container for easy application.

        This DIY facial serum will provide hydration and nourishment, helping to enhance your skin’s overall health!

        Choose the essential oil according to your skin type

        • Normal- Lavender, Frankincense oil
        • Dry – Lavender, Sandalwood, Jasmine
        • Oily- Tea – tree, Lavender, Peppermint, rosemary

        STEP 6: SHEET MASKS – CERTAINLY A CRUCIAL STEP IN THE KOREAN GLASS SKICARE ROUTINE

        Sheet masks have become incredibly popular among Koreans and are current favorites in the beauty community. They pamper the skin, leaving it smooth and glowing. These masks are designed to hold onto nourishing ingredients, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin layers for optimal absorption. For the best results, you can use sheet masks two to three times a week.

        Available in a wide variety, you can easily purchase them or even make your own at home for a personalized touch!

        STEP 7: EYE CREAM

        Eye cream is an essential product to incorporate into your skincare routine as you approach your thirties. It plays a vital role in addressing concerns like wrinkles, dark circles, and fine lines that often arise with age. You can’t achieve that coveted glass skin look if you have dark circles, puffiness, or bags under your eyes.

        Starting early with an eye cream can help prevent these issues. To apply, simply dab a small amount of eye cream onto your fingertip and gently pat it around the eye area. Avoid tugging or pulling on the delicate skin; a light touch is key to ensuring the product absorbs without causing damage.

        DIY Eye Cream

        You can create an effective and affordable eye cream using coconut oil and vitamin E oil. Here’s how to make it:

        1. Melt Coconut Oil: Start by gently melting some coconut oil until it becomes liquid.
        2. Mix in Vitamin E: Stir in about 10 drops of vitamin E oil to the melted coconut oil.
        3. Store: Transfer the mixture into a small container for easy use.

        Benefits:

        • Coconut Oil: Known for its ability to lighten dark circles, coconut oil deeply moisturizes the skin and helps reduce wrinkles by supporting collagen strength. It also prevents puffiness and bags under the eyes.
        • Vitamin E: This powerful antioxidant combats free radicals that contribute to aging, helping to maintain youthful skin.

        For best results, gently massage the eye cream around your eye area to promote absorption and further lighten dark circles.

        STEP 8: MOISTURIZER

        A moisturizer effectively locks in moisture, replenishing your skin’s hydration levels and providing a radiant glow. Simply take a small amount in your palm and gently massage it into your face to boost blood circulation.

        DIY Rice Cream

        Ingredients:

        • 2 tsp rice
        • 1 cup water
        • 1 tsp milk
        • 2 tsp honey
        • 4 tsp aloe vera gel
        • Vitamin E oil (to taste)
        • Essential oil of your choice (e.g., frankincense oil)

        Instructions:

        1. Cook the Rice: In a pot, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil and let it cook until the rice is soft. Allow some of the water to evaporate and let it cool for about 15 minutes.
        2. Blend: Transfer the cooked rice (along with any remaining water) into a blender. Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
        3. Mix in Other Ingredients: Add the milk, honey, aloe vera gel, and a few drops of Vitamin E oil to the blended rice. If you’re using an essential oil, add that as well.
        4. Adjust Consistency: Blend again until all ingredients are well combined. If the mixture is too runny, you can add more aloe vera gel to achieve a slightly thick, gel-like consistency.
        5. Store: Transfer the rice cream into a clean container. Use it as a moisturizer to enjoy the benefits of rice for your skin!

        This DIY rice cream is packed with nutrients and hydration, making it a great addition to your skincare routine. Enjoy the glow!

        50 BEST HIP TATTOOS FOR WOMEN

        If you’ve found the perfect tattoo design but aren’t sure where to place it, consider the hip as an excellent choice. This area is not only associated with femininity but is also ideal for meaningful tattoos. Getting inked on the hip can be a powerful way to celebrate female strength while highlighting one of the body’s most alluring features. Whether you choose to flaunt your tattoo or keep it discreet, the hip offers both options. However, be aware that this is one of the more painful spots to get tattooed due to the thin skin, proximity to bone, and overall sensitivity. Because of this, many women opt for small, simple designs, but you could also choose something larger that extends to the upper thigh or wraps around the side of the hip. Keep reading to learn everything you need to know about hip tattoos.

        GUN HIP TATTOO

        A gun tattoo on the hip carries significant symbolism, as this is traditionally where a gun would be holstered. This placement can make a bold statement, representing strength, protection, and power. For many, a gun tattoo serves as a reminder of their resilience and ability to overcome challenges, making it an especially empowering choice for women who have faced difficult times. It can also convey a sense of intimidation or serve as a warning that you are not someone to be taken lightly.

With over 20 tattoos, one of her most notable is the Sanskrit prayer inked on her hip. Sanskrit, the ancient language of India, adds a deep and meaningful layer to her tattoo. The design is said to translate to “forgiveness, honesty, suppression, and control,” making it a powerful statement that reflects her strength and values.

        DREAM CATCHER HIP TATTOO

        Dream catcher tattoos are both beautiful and rich in meaning. Originating from Native American culture, dream catchers are traditionally hung above children’s beds to ward off bad dreams. Their captivating design and symbolism have made them popular around the world, inspiring many to get them as body art. A dream catcher tattoo can serve as a reminder to stay focused and positive, offering protection against harm and negative thoughts.

        The star is a simple yet incredibly popular tattoo choice, known for its versatility in size and placement. Star tattoos work beautifully on various parts of the body, including the hip.

Beyond their cute appearance, stars carry deep symbolism, representing destiny, hope, honor, and guidance. A star tattoo can serve as a reminder to stay positive during difficult times or as a symbol of guidance and protection.

        ELEPHANT HIP TATTOO

        Elephant tattoos are a powerful choice, symbolizing prosperity, good luck, and strength. They can also celebrate femininity, as elephant herds are led by a matriarch. There are many ways to design an elephant tattoo, from realistic depictions to creative variations like incorporating florals or blending geometric elements. The design can be as detailed or simple as you like. The hip is an excellent location for an elephant tattoo, though it can be quite painful. If you’re considering a larger design, keep in mind that the extended sessions required will increase the discomfort, so be sure to factor this in when planning your tattoo.

        QUOTE HIP TATTOO

        Quote tattoos are both meaningful and deeply personal. Your chosen quote can come from anywhere—a favorite film, an inspiring poem, or song lyrics that resonate with you. It could also be the words of someone you love, inked in their handwriting to honor them. Such a tattoo can be a powerful source of strength and empowerment. With a wide variety of fonts to choose from, you can opt for a small, subtle tattoo or have the quote run along the side of your hip for a bolder statement.

        SIDE HIP TATTOO

        Hip tattoos rank high on the pain scale, so it’s essential to weigh the pros and cons before committing. While the hip is one of the most painful areas for body art, it’s also incredibly versatile. It’s perfect for those who want to keep their tattoo hidden and reveal it on their own terms. The side of the hip offers a particularly intimate placement, allowing you to choose when and to whom you show your tattoo. You can also experiment with different placements, such as the lower hip or along the side. The side hip is especially suited for long, vertical designs that complement the body’s natural shape, like snakes, arrows, or flowers.

        PHOENIX HIP TATTOO

        A phoenix tattoo powerfully symbolizes life, death, and rebirth. According to legend, the phoenix regenerates by bursting into flames and rising from the ashes, making it an ideal choice for someone who has undergone a period of transition or overcome significant challenges, emerging stronger and more resilient. There are many styles to choose from, but the most striking designs often incorporate vibrant colors like yellow, red, and orange to evoke the flames. The hip is a beautiful placement for a phoenix tattoo, allowing you to keep it hidden or reveal it whenever you choose.

        CHERRY BLOSSOM HIP TATTOO

        A cherry blossom tattoo is one of the most stunning choices for the hip. These delicate flowers, which bloom briefly, symbolize impermanence, love, and beauty, making them a powerful reminder to cherish life and its fleeting moments. While there are various ways to design your tattoo, using color to capture the vibrant pink of the cherry blossom creates a striking and eye-catching piece. The hip is an ideal location, offering the flexibility to keep your tattoo hidden or reveal it at your discretion, making it an incredibly versatile option for your body art.

        LION HIP TATTOO

        Lion tattoos offer a range of design options, from realistic portrayals to geometric patterns. As a symbol of courage, bravery, royalty, and wisdom, the lion, known as the king of the jungle, makes a powerful choice for a hip tattoo. You can enhance your design with floral elements for a softer, more romantic touch, or opt for a lioness to celebrate femininity and motherhood. The hip provides ample space for detailed designs, allowing your tattoo to extend across the upper thigh or around the back, making it an excellent location for a bold and intricate piece.

        SIMPLE HIP TATTOO

        Simple tattoos emphasize the core elements of the design, featuring clean outlines with minimal shading or contrast. Their beauty lies in their minimalism, making them perfect for those who prefer a sleek, understated look. Simple designs can also be done on a smaller scale, which is ideal for the hip—a particularly painful area to tattoo. Choosing a simpler design means your tattoo will be completed more quickly and often at a lower cost.

        SUNFLOWER HIP TATTOO

        The sunflower is a stunning flower that makes for a striking tattoo, thanks to its bright, bold colors. Symbolizing hope, optimism, devotion, and everlasting love, sunflower tattoos carry deep meaning and make for meaningful body art. You can choose from various styles, from a realistic depiction with vibrant hues to a simpler outline design. The hip is an excellent placement for such a tattoo due to its versatility, offering the option to keep it hidden for a more personal touch or reveal it as desired.

        HIDDEN SMALL HIP TATTOOS

        The hip is a great choice for a special and intimate tattoo design, but it’s worth noting that it is one of the more painful areas to get inked. The pain is due to the thin skin and the proximity to bone. Considering the intensity of the pain is important, and opting for a smaller design can make the tattoo session more manageable. Small tattoos are not only simple and beautiful but also versatile in placement and easier to conceal. This makes a small hip tattoo an ideal choice for someone who wants to keep their ink private and personal.

        MANDALA HIP TATTOO

        The term “mandala” comes from the ancient Sanskrit word meaning “circle,” and it holds significant cultural importance. Recently, mandalas have inspired both artwork and tattoos, though their appropriateness as a tattoo design can be a topic of debate. The intricate patterns and symmetrical shapes of mandalas are visually captivating and are often associated with harmony and balance. A mandala tattoo can serve as a reminder to pause and focus on what truly matters, encouraging inner calm and reflection. The hip is an excellent placement for this type of body art, offering a private and personal location where your tattoo can remain hidden or be revealed on your own terms.

        SMALL HIP TATTOO

        Small tattoos are perfect for the hip due to the area’s high pain level. Opting for a simpler, smaller design can accentuate your hip without overwhelming it. This placement is often associated with femininity and can be a way to celebrate your strength and individuality. You have various design options, from unique ideas to classic symbols like hearts, stars, or cherry blossoms. While small tattoos can be tailored to your preferences, an outline design is often the best choice, minimizing shading and contrast to keep the tattoo elegant and manageable.

        HEART TATTOO ON HIP

        The heart is a universally recognized symbol of love and looks stunning as a tattoo on the hip. This placement allows you to keep a meaningful design private and concealed. Depending on the message you want to convey, you can personalize your heart tattoo with additional elements like an arrow or dagger, or keep it small and simple. You might also get creative with variations of the heart shape, such as combining it with a cherry to represent innocence and passion. For those who have experienced heartbreak or loss, a broken heart design can be a poignant and personal choice.

        FLORAL HIP TATTOO

        Flowers symbolize growth and beauty, making them a meaningful choice for a tattoo. When opting for a floral design on the hip, you can incorporate various blooms to create a stunning and decorative piece. Depending on your preference, you can choose a realistic depiction of the flowers or simplify the design with an outline and minimal shading. A floral tattoo on the hip combines significance with aesthetics, allowing you to showcase your favorite flowers in a beautiful and personal way.

        UNIQUE HIP TATTOOS

        Body art is a powerful form of self-expression, reflecting your thoughts, feelings, or serving purely as decoration. Common tattoo choices include flowers, hearts, and serpents, but you can also opt for more unique designs. Consider incorporating unusual quotes, words of personal significance, or combining multiple images to create a one-of-a-kind piece. For your next tattoo, choose something that resonates with you deeply or blend several of your favorite elements to craft a design that is uniquely yours.

        SNAKE HIP TATTOO

        Snake tattoos look striking on the hip due to their elongated shape. They can be inked horizontally across the side of the thigh and upper thigh or in a smaller scale directly on the hip bone. Snakes are rich in symbolism, often associated with transformation and change, making them a powerful choice for someone who has overcome challenges and emerged stronger. While snakes can symbolize sin and temptation to some, they also represent good luck and protection to others. The meaning of your tattoo can be tailored to your preferences; for example, a snake with visible fangs can convey danger, while a design incorporating flowers can offer a softer, more feminine touch.

        HIP TO THIGH TATTOO

        If you’re not fazed by the pain of getting a tattoo on the hip, a hip-to-thigh design could be perfect for you. While the hip is a beautiful and feminine placement, it is also one of the more painful areas due to its proximity to bone, thin skin, and sensitivity. A hip-to-thigh tattoo offers a large canvas for detailed and expansive designs, giving you the freedom to incorporate multiple images and styles. Whether you opt for a design that holds deep personal meaning or a purely decorative piece, the choice is entirely yours!

        DRAGON HIP TATTOO

        Dragon tattoos are both visually striking and rich in symbolism, often representing wisdom, fearlessness, and protection. While dragons may symbolize greed and evil in Western cultures, they are typically associated with protection and good fortune in Eastern traditions. The meaning of your dragon tattoo can be tailored to your personal preferences and the style you choose. The dragon’s shape is well-suited for a hip tattoo, allowing for a large, detailed design that can extend across the hip and thigh, or a smaller, simpler version that remains elegant and impactful.

        GIRLY SMALL HIP TATTOOS

        When choosing the ideal placement for your next tattoo, the hip is a fantastic option for both its aesthetic appeal and versatility. Designs here can be both feminine and striking, whether large or small. Smaller tattoos often suit the area well and are practical, especially since hip tattoos rank high on the pain scale. The hip’s versatility makes it an excellent canvas for a range of designs, from delicate and girly to bold and meaningful. It’s a great way to celebrate the beauty and strength of the female form. Whether you choose flowers, a significant word, or a meaningful phrase, the choice is entirely yours.

        BUTTERFLY HIP TATTOO

        The butterfly, with its diverse forms and vibrant colors, is a symbol of transformation, beauty, and freedom. Butterfly tattoos are popular due to their rich symbolism and versatility. They can be designed large or small and suit various locations on the body, including the hip. Although hip tattoos are notably painful and are best reserved for designs of deep personal significance, this placement can also embody female energy and strength while allowing you to keep your tattoo private.

        ROSE HIP TATTOO

        The rose is a popular tattoo choice, celebrated for its beauty and rich symbolism. It represents love and passion, and its meaning can be deeply personal. A rose tattoo can signify the balance between beauty and caution, as the flower’s thorns remind us to be wary of those we trust. The color of the tattoo can also shift its meaning; yellow roses often symbolize friendship and positivity, while red roses are associated with passion and desire. Although getting a rose tattoo on the hip is painful, it offers a great option for those who prefer to keep their body art concealed.

        FLOWER HIP TATTOOS

        Flower tattoos are a fantastic choice for the hip, offering a range of design possibilities from delicate and feminine to intricate and realistic. With numerous flower options available, each carrying its own symbolism, color, and form, you can choose a design that resonates with you. For instance, a sunflower tattoo symbolizes positivity, devotion, and optimism, making it a meaningful choice for celebrating faith or a special relationship. On the other hand, a lotus tattoo represents spiritual awakening, enlightenment, beauty, and growth. The hip, often associated with femininity and elegance, provides a beautiful canvas for body art that celebrates female strength and grace.

        CONCLUSION

        Tattoos have become a form of self-expression, and hip tattoos offer a unique and stylish canvas for women. From delicate designs to bold statements, the possibilities are endless. Whether you’re looking to showcase your femininity, personality, or cultural heritage, there’s a hip tattoo that’s perfect for you.

        Remember, choosing a tattoo is a personal decision. Consider your body type, lifestyle, and the meaning behind the design. With careful planning and a skilled artist, you can create a piece of art that you’ll cherish for years to come.
