i don't want to be tacky

I have a few projects that didn't turn out quite like I wanted. On one shelf (that would have been danged pretty!) I used a grout sponge that this guy at Lowes recommended. Last time I do that. It scratched the tile all to hell. Thing is, you can't tell unless you look close and since it's a shelf you'd sit stuff on it anyway. One is a wall hanging that I used mosaic tile instead of floor tile for. It looks cute, but it's not what I would normally do. Anyway, I've noticed that some people have "scratch and dent" sections on their Etsy pages. I was thinking about doing that and just marking the stuff way down. I'd call it something cute like "Live and Learn" or "Trial and Error". But I was just wondering if that would be tacky or not. I tend to think it would be ok, but I wanted to get every one's opinion. So, should I do it or not???

Also, is a 3rd tattoo tacky? The one's I have are really small and they have meaning. I think they're classy and I always get them somewhere that I can cover up if need be. I have a heart thingy on the lower right side of my back and a tribal cross on my ankle. The new one I want to get is a symbol that means "begin anew". It's really beautiful and unique. I have three possible locations for it; on my side, like on my ribs kinda under my arm, on the back of my neck, and under my ear. Here's pictures of my current and possible tattoos. I know the pants line going through the middle of my heart is cute. Sorry. These were cell phone pics, so they're not fabulous.

So what do we think? Tacky or no? Speak up, people! I'm going to bed now. Hope everyone has a fantastic night!
