PIECES OF US // FEET | Amanda Zampelli

FEET // I wiggle one - back and forth, back and forth - when I’m laying down feeling really cozy, and that motion usually “rocks” me to sleep. They’re a bigger size than your average female’s feet, but I think they make sense with my body. My toes? Oh, my poor toes. I stub them much too often. It’s a problem. I like to keep them polished, maybe as a way to make up for how often I bag them into corners of things. Overall, my feet get the job done. They’re not the prettiest pair I’ve ever seen, but they’re not the worst either. Lately you can find them inside big fluffy socks, tall Ugg boots, or my Nike black sneakers.

This post is a part of Ali Edwards’ self portrait adventure challenge PIECES OF US.

I am planning on participating as way to do a few things:

1. pop back on Instagram - I haven’t been able to “get into it” lately (my last post was on New Year’s Day)

2. explore my body through my olw little word: HOME - I’ve been thinking of my body as my ‘home’ & I want to explore that idea this week through the lens of this challenge

3. find out what really matters to me - …in terms of my creativity & what I want to share. I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately…that zest and direction for how I want to use my voice & craft has had little to no focus since I went back to teaching, and slowly but surely I’m getting more clear about it. I think this challenge is a good start.


4. ALSO FUN TO NOTE: Kristin + I recorded a podcast episode dedicated to the whole thing!

We talk about our plan for the week with this challenge, the magic of being part of a creative community of memory keepers, and everything in between.
