After attempting hundreds (yes, hundreds) of shadow shots in the backyard, the driveway, the park, and on the deck, I decided that I needed to think a little more creatively about this week’s assignment. So I dug out a box of old eyeshadows (one of many, many, many) from under my bathroom sink.
I’m not really a makeup kind of girl. I have these grand ideas of waking up every morning, getting dressed in something trendy, and hitting the playground looking like a stylish mama. The truth is, I am MUCH more comfortable in my workout clothes and sneakers and I’m a sporty kind of girl. For me, makeup is sort of a hassle. Therefore, all the dozens of eyeshadows I’ve bought when I get on a stylish mama kick, sit unused in piles under my sink. Here is one of those compacts the lady at Smashbox somehow talked me into buying 3 and half years ago. Eyeshadows!

And here, a traditional shadow shot. Anyone know anything about how to revive that dead grass?

I took many shadow shots this week too. It seems nothing was a “cool” as I wanted it to be! LOL! I love both your shots! The first one is so romantic to me, waiting to be wore. The second one is just plain sweet! Great work!
I love it! Another original idea. I have those shadows that sit around too, but you do get to the point where you wear a little again. Just those won’t be any good anymore when you get to that point.
Great, original take on the challenge! I have tones and tons of makeup leftover from my pre-kid days. Now I’m happy just wearing a little mascara, eyeliner, and lip gloss. It’s so hard to throw out all of that old makeup, though!
Funny! I never would have thought of that. Both pictures are awesome.
Love the eye ‘shadows’ great take on the theme.
Eye shadow…I love it.
that case for your eyeshadow is lovely!!!
i love eyeshadow
How creative you are! You come up with wonderful ideas! Love the “shadow” shots! xo
