The Day of the Dead is a national holiday celebrated on November 1 in Mexico. Every year families commemorate and honor the deaths of their loved ones by visiting grave sites, preparing favorite foods of the deceased and building elaborate altars which may include Sugar skulls. Sugar Skulls are so-called because they used to be made of white sugar.
Some people get tattoos of sugar skulls and other things representing the day of the dead. The sugar skull tattoos actually tend to be quite colorful and vibrant in spite of the seemingly dark origins.
