DECATUR, Ill. (WAND) — Oakwood Tattoo held its annual Toys for Tats promotion on Thursday.

Anyone who brought in an unwrapped toy worth at least $35 got the chance to pick out new ink.

In 2023, more than 140 people received tattoos. Crimson Ball, the Shop manager, says the event is all about sharing the spirit of Christmas.

"We like to give back. We have multiple people in here who have families who know what it's like to go through hard times, and we just want to do what we can,"

All the toys donated will go to WAND's Spirit of Giving.
