    Step 2

    Next you need to crush it up! It best to use the back of a paintbrush, or makeup brush.
    P.S. DO NOT DO THIS ON A DARK COLORED BED SPREAD!!! (I did and it made a mess!)

    Now for this step you need a funel. If you don't have one handy, you can roll up a piece of paper and stick it in the nail polish bottle.and pore the cruched up eyeshadow into the funnel/paper funnel.
    P.S. Don't do this on a dark colored bedspread either!

I get those cheap multi-color eyeshadow compacts from the .99 store - usually for only one or two colors - so I end up with a bunch I won't use on my eyes... this is the perfect project for that! Happy
