Now that modern Barbie has a wheelchair friendly dollhouse, I really want the media to reintroduce Becky 😭. She could be a redhead with freckles as a reference to LITD Midge❤️.

I know that Barbie already has a shit ton of friends but one more character couldn’t hurt, especially if she fills a much needed niche (named disabled dolls).

I love seeing american girl dolls with wheelchairs, with hearing aids, with diabetic kits, with guide canes, with service dogs, with crutches, with allergy and asthma kits, with braces and hospital bands and gowns.

I love seeing disabled and chronically ill dolls

Meet Vanessa Hart!

She's a stylish business student with dreams of being a CEO of her own company. Her favorite color is grey (because of her eyes) and blue. She is allergic to cats and dogs, so she doesn't like either very much. She loves socializing and is really popular at her university, the NYU Stern School of Business. She is terrified of water + being on boats. She became a double amputee after a car accident when she was 10. She is also asexual + hetero-romantic!

More thoughts + materials under the cut 🌟

Not the most proud of this one, but she was in a pretty rough state when I started lmao. (No legs, damaged plastic, loosing hair, half off face, ugly ass bangs, horrifically proportioned ect.). It's mostly the face I'm unhappy with, but the entire thing feels a touch sloppy.

I used mostly scraps from jeans for the wheelchair and skirt, and a hoodie for the shirt and scarf. I couldn't find metal wire, so I used scraps I could find, but metal wire is probably the best choice. Hot glue is holding this entire thing together lmfao. I can't for the life of me find the name or brand of the doll, but it's some weird off brand barbie.

I'm pretty proud of the wheelchair though! I used cardstock for the back and seat, on those weird colourful parts.

For her skirt I just hot glued the top to her waist and threaded a wire through her "hips" then down the length of her skirt so that it could be positioned. I then glued down the pack of the skirt and stuffed it down to her knee height then covered the inside with glue. It gives the impression of a below the knee amputation pretty well, I think.

For the face I just painted it on with a brush and posca pens. I didn't seal it either, so I have to be careful with it.

All her clothes are hot glued on, so it was less sewing her an outfit and more like fucked up fabric paper mâché, where I glued on whatever worked.

My most recent paper doll~

She doesn’t have a name yet, I can’t explain to you the inspo, I cannot elaborate what her interests are without someone calling me a freak and i cannot insinuate more about this characters possible intentions.

All the paper dolls in the dollhouse are just as strange mysterious and freaky deaky.

A little more tactical-practical before integrating the crew. Weird Bab from the trash isn't even the trashiest.

Today's disabled character of the day is this unnamed doll from Kmart, who is a wheelchair user

I love how well this Barbie wheelchair goes with Daphne!

You know people don’t tell you this but apparently when you are actually on meds for your ADHD you suddenly gain the ability to just… make spreadsheets

Two years ago me barely even touched google sheets. Today me is constantly like “hmm you know what I could do with all this information I’m gathering? Make an intense multi tab spreadsheet as a quick reference guide :)”

Wild shit

I wish they made ghoulia a wheelchair user!!! It would have been so cute!! Not only does it make sense for a zombie to have a mobility aid but she also could tick out her chair to satisfy her need for speed!!

[droodlebug]

anyway if someone wants to throw a cool 1500 usd my way so i can afford a wheelchair that i could push even when my arms are weak so i can have a semblance of independence still. that'd be swell. ill draw you porn or whatever in return idc

[multiple-sclerosis-barbie]

Me, buying Barbie Fashionistas as an adult and fistfighting the collectors: I NEED THESE MORE THAN YOU! I AM ACTUALLY GOING TO USE THEM!

Collectors: What for?

Me, raising pencils: ART REFERENCES. NOW HAND OVER BARBIE #98!

New doll: Scarlet! I believe she's a 1 Modern Circle Producer Barbie. She has a bald spot that her bangs mostly cover, fortunately, but I may have to reroot her one of these days now that I know how to do that.

The choker is part of her original outfit, everything else is different. I found her (at a thrift store, I've now forgotten which one) dressed as is with the exception of the leggings, and I'm not sure where her outfit comes from but I feel it suits her. She has a lot of character.

Her lower joints are a bit wonky and she doesn't stand well on her own, and I found her at the same time as the wheelchair, which matched her colors, so I decided this doll is a wheelchair user. I had to glue one of the wheelchair wheels back on with E6000 but it works great now. Her skirt would ride up when she sat in it so I made her some leggings.
