I was very excited when I saw your teaser. Not many people incorporate disabilities into their art or in the art doll community. And because I suffer from invisible disabilities, it was so nice to see the full pride flag (not just representation for physical disabilities like usual).
I love this so much! I love seeing a doll representing younger people who need/use a cane. I've needed one since age 22 & this is the first disabled doll I've seen with one.
Thank you! 💖💖 I've known several non-elderly people who've used mobility aids (and since I was in my early 20s, I occasionally need to use crutches myself when I have a bad arthritis flare). I wish that more people realised that they're tools that enable freedom and personal independence.
Nina is so cute! I love her faceup, haircut, and jumper! Her eyes and lips are very pretty. And her cane is a cute design! I have physical and mental disabilities/illnesses, and while I don't use accessibility tools to walk, I super appreciate this doll! Happy disability pride and channel anniversary!
This might be one of my favourite dolls repaints of all time as a disabled doll enthusiast this really made my day. She’s a beautiful doll and I love how you’ve customised the wheelchair.
Mad at TH-cam for not showing me this and making me late to the party, but I have to say she's gorgeous, another great doll! The outfit and details are lovely! Having anxiety and depression and having relatives with other disabilities I am so chuffed seeing this, it made my day ^_^
Happy anniversary! Super happy to have found your channel. This is a beautiful doll, and I love how you represent a whole variety of characters and demographics.
Thank you so much! 💖💖 Her hair was a bit tough to work with but I'm super happy with it! Short hair can be really difficult to tame, especially if it's not made of yarn or viscose fibre, so I get why it's not done a lot. 😅
@@stephoodoll I've done twice short hair for dolls but luckily I used yarn both times😅 Anyways that the hair is awesome, your effort was totally worth it❤❤
There's a link to the Wikipedia article about it in the video description. But it sort of came to be over the years after the Americans with Disabilities Act passed in the US in 1990. The flag was first made in 2019, and later updated in 2021.
I really love your vibe and how educational your content is. I mean you're just pretty spectacular and I feel like a better person from being in your sphere of influence. Does that make sense? I hope so. It's a bad pain day so you get what you get 😂
You know, something I learned that I find really interesting is that there is a large amount of people on the spectrum that also identify as trans and especially non-binary! There are many suspected reasons for why, including that gender may just not make as much sense to autistic people, but it’s interesting to think about, as an enby on the spectrum myself.
I feel like I've probably met just about as many binary trans autistics as I do enby ones. So I wonder if it's more just that we just don't get on with the roles other people expect of us if they don't align with who we are? Definitely an interesting thing to think about.
LGBTQ+ pride month is in June, and Disability pride month is in July. I did say in the video that I was originally going to make Nina as my June pride doll specifically because disability an intersection that's often overlooked in LGBTQ+ spaces, but I decided to make my trans pride Bun instead for June, and made Nina just for disability pride month (which just happened to be the month after). I hope that makes sense! 💖

Thank you! 💖💖 And I very much want to be as inclusive as I can with my dolls. 😊
She came out great. I love the hair cute and faceup.

It's so nice to see more disabled rep in art (especially in the doll community).
I'm glad I can provide some! 💖 I do want to do more. I really want to be as inclusive as I can.
Love the inclusivity and progressive values of your channel! 💙 and that cane is so stinkin’ cute.
Thank you so much! 💖💖 And that cane is one of my favourite things I've ever made for a doll, alongside Grim's daggers. 😊
This is wonderful- art, education, and pride all together!
Thank you! 💖💖

Aww, thank you so much! 💖💖 And I'm glad you enjoyed the video. 😊

Thank you! 💖💖 I think they would. :)
Happy anniversary! Super happy to have found your channel. This is a beautiful doll, and I love how you represent a whole variety of characters and demographics.
Thank you so much! 💖💖 And that's what I want to try to do as much as I can.
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!! ❤❤❤ Thank you for making disabled doll😍❤ She is gorgeus!! I love the hairstyle, not often do people give dolls short hair❤

Congrats on two years 👏👏👏🎉🎊🪅 😁
Thank you! 💖💖😊
WOW she looks great 😄😄😄

Since when their was a disability pride month ?

@@stephoodoll Oh that sound interesting

Aww, thanks. 💖💖 I try my best. 😅 And remember to be kind to yourself, especially on those bad pain days!
@@stephoodoll well I think you always knock it out of the park so... Way to go! And I am trying my best to be a bum today but it's not easy.
That's cute.
Thank you! 💖💖
You welcome! 💜💜
Instant sub! 👍
Aww, thank you! I really appreciate it. 💖💖😊
@@stephoodoll Great content!😊
This looks exactly like my bff Angie 😅 even the same floral cane…
Well that's a fun coincidence. 😅💖

I don’t think disability pride should be grouped in with lgbtq pride I think they should be separate even tho many times there are intersections
