#BC’s Doll Place

[alittlebitbethany]

Hi everybody I’ve posted a new video in honour of Joss‘s birthday today. Please check it out it would mean a lot to me. Image Description: screenshot of a YouTube video featuring a photo of an American Girl doll with a hearing aid dressed in a yellow dress with daisy details at the waist and a daisy headband. The text reads BC Doll Place: Happy Birthday Joss 2024! (With Subtitles).

@thatweirdowithdolls made a post saying that ag should make a coconut toy at ag scale. My first thought was “OMG absolutely!”, and my second was “I wonder if I can make one using needle felting?”. Well…

TINY COCONUT!!!

this was such a fun craft, I absolutely recommend it. it took about two hours, but it was very fun and relaxing, and I absolutely LOVE how mini coconut came out.

here she is in comparison with mini maryellen (who is missing a shoe lol):

i used mini Maryellen for scale - I put normal coconut up against nicki’s leg to measure relative size, and did the same for mini maryellen and mini coconut as I made her, to make sure they were in scale.

here she is next to regular coconut:

(I like to call that pic “please feel free to talk to me or my daughter any time 😊”)

#american girl #american girl dolls #agblr #coconut the dog #my posts #my photos #my creations #I’m literally so happy 😭. I’m so glad I added the stripes to the collar - they were finicky and took a long time but it adds that extra #touch. #mini Maryellen had to sacrifice her hair elastic for the photo of Nicki holding coconut lol #I’m at my parents place rn (bc we keep our. imbibed craft stash here) and my elastics are at home haha

ok actually building more on the idea of jigsaw apprentice grocery shopping trips and the various reasons they all suck at it (John doesn't go out bc he's too ill and also way too recognisable)

Amanda - It's not really Amanda's fault that she sucks at getting the groceries, she struggles with chronic nausea as a side effect of her sobriety so she ends up buying lots of small, bland snack foods and forgets to get actual ingredients for big meals. She does eventually start buying more fruit to make smoothies for John as his cancer gets worse and she flips her shit when she catches hoffman stealing it for himself later

Lawrence - Lawrence should be the best at getting the groceries but he forgets that basically only hoffman and himself can cook (and hoffman sticks to simple staple meals.) He buys a lot of fancy preserved foods and fresh ingredients assuming the other apprentices will cook with them only to find Adam eating feta out of the jar with a fork.

Mark - Hoffman is usually the one to actually get the groceries as he does buy a decent amount of food and he's an okay cook (he used to have regular family dinners with angelina where he'd cook her comfort foods.) He cooks a lot of pasta bakes and roasts, tends to stick to stodgy, hearty meals. The rest of the stuff he buys is usually microwave ready meals and those big chunky meat soup cans for big boys. One year Amanda buys him one of those super cheap kiss the cook aprons as a joke and he now unironically wears it every time he cooks.

Adam - They let Adam buy the groceries one single time and he ended up bringing home seven bags of frozen potato gems, four litres of mountain dew and a pack of darts. John doesn't talk to him for two weeks.

#look i know this is probably one of the more fandom meme-y things ive posted but things have been Tuff and playing with saw characters like #theyre little ken and barbie dolls is my happy place #john kramer #mark hoffman #amanda young #adam faulkner #laurence gordon #i realise i left the other two later jigsaw apprentices out but thats bc i play favourites im sorry #sawposting #they have a little beer fridge and wine cellar but they keep it locked up in its own room to help out amanda #lawrence has a lovely collection of red wine #mark has some nice whiskeys and then a case of cheap beer #adam has one half drunken vodka cruiser thats been sitting in the back of the mini fridge for weeks #strahm learns about the apron and almost bites through his own fist

A belated Happy New Year from Harley and Dinah!!! (and me) [[Harley design by @eedaeth btw!! check him out]] This took a couple of days to actually finish but I'm so fucking proud of how it came out. New Year's resolution is to genuine make more art and post more in general. Buckle up folks, I'm gonna be more deranged and more vocal than ever!! I hope everyone had a good New Years and that 2024 is treating them kindly so far!!

I had only kinda wanted this Cleo when she dropped but like... I didnt nearly $100 want her so I was like whatever. But she grew on me and then I was like dang I do want her actually. Then yesterday at a doll show I found her and snagged her for $50 so I guess patience pays off sometimes lmao

#personal #dolls #my dolls #cleo de nile #monster high #monsterhigh #mh #midnight runway #like the guy was originally selling her for 100 #but by the time i saw her she was down to 60 #and hes like well its the end of the day hows 50? and i said fuck yea lmao #bc no shipping and getting her right that second is worth a lot tbh #and less than retail like god bless #only issue i actually see with her is maybe one of her eyelashes on the left eye is a little out of place #but i might be able to fix that a bit anyway #opening her later fr im so excited #he also gave my sib a mlp princess cadence for free bc we're guessing tehy were the first one to not call her celestia lmaoooo #so bonus!! he was cool #and shout out to my sibling for having cash when i didnt lmao love you!

[hum--hallelujah]

the THING about Disloyal Order Of Water Buffaloes is that, #1, it is one of the most melodically satisfying songs I've ever heard and that's why it was one of the first FOB songs I actually listened to of my own free choice, and #2, it makes people crazy insane bc so many of the lyrics simply make zero sense on a surface level EXCEPT "I'm half doomed and you're semi sweet" which IMMEDIATELY gets across its point and acts as a thesis statement to the song, thus allowing an understanding of the rest of the lyrics to fall into place

#especially the second verse I still have to think about a lot bc it sounds like nonsense until you really dig into it #but I tend to interpret it as actually somewhat literal #a lot of truck stops have fancy painted porcelain or glass doll displays or souvenirs (which is how I read the lizard scales line #which is also funny bc usamerican truck stop gift shops often make zero sense in most ways skskskdkdn) #and it's kind of like this weird futility. like it's pretty on the surface it's nostalgic but it's also SO out of place #and probably cheap and veneered as well #which is.... absolutely fascinating in the wider context of folie and its creation #something something music industry something something the band itself at certain points in their history (especially #right before the hiatus) #idk man. all I know is that disloyal order is insane and also insanely fun to sing. the melody is just OUGH I wanna drink it #she speaks! #m #fob #fall out boy #folie a deux

What no one tells you about making plushies is that the hardest part is finding the motherfucking fabric

#i'm trying to make a pokey doll and by god i will #but finding the blue fur is not only IMPOSSIBLE but whatever similar fabrics i can find are so damn expensive too #i have like one place left to go ask #either a miracle happens and i find it there or i'll have to compromise and get white short fur and dye #or order the long one online and hope for the best #also white bc blue is not that popular a colour ig #i'm distressed #lords in black #pokey #hatchetverse #hatchetfield #diy merch

It's very interesting trying to find blogs to follow for cherry alive bc like. Things we like: pink, ribbons, flowers, pretty clothes, baked goods, cute things, fairies, feminine stuff, cottagecore aesthetics, etc etc etc

Things we DO NOT like: misogyny, thinspo, 'i'm just a girly girl who needs a boyfriend to take care of me' (and related), traumacore, lana del rey inspired stuff (her music's fine, the way it's been turned into an aesthetic online bothers me), nymphette stuff (Yikes TM), tradwife stuff (extra Yikes TM), etc etc etc

Like a lot of pink themed blogs have content we find viscerally upsetting and completely antithetical to what I'm trying to make this space into. On my former account I saw a lot of posts criticizing the whole "girlblogging girl dinner" thing but I didn't see a lot of the original content they were responding to. Now I've seen it and I do not like it! I like femininity and fairies and flowers and sunshine. One of my deepest desires in a relationship context is actually a dynamic that includes a certain amount of being taken care of. But like. In a chivalrous butch/femme way not a weird 'girls are incompetent' way. I like so many things that are aesthetically adjacent to a lot of stuff I hate, but at the same time completely opposite from it. Because for me it's about healing and embracing joy and whimsy and magic and sunshine and hope and art, and, to a certain extent, how that stuff interacts for me with gender and femininity and finding joy in my femininity again. It's not about this bizarre 'i'm just a weak little girl' and/or 'i'm a violent girl who's cutesy and cruel' or whatever all that nonsense is. It makes me so sad to see honestly. Like. Idk what you're doing, I'm having fun. You should maybe try it too.

#text post #my post #anyway. i don't follow those blogs but i follow some that are close to it #like. i'll follow some coquette blogs if they don't post some of the things i find more objectionable about that whole world #bc i like ruffles and ribbons and vintage pink and white fashion #but like. things just a step to the right of that scare the crap out of me and make me very sad #it's fine though i'm careful to make my dash pretty happy #i just run into it when searching for new blogs to follow #the interesting thing is i get it #i had a pink traumacore dollkin blog once upon a time. and obviously we do still have a thing for dolls/creepy dolls sometimes #but i'm just soooooo glad to be out of that place for the most part and in a much healthier happier world now #in fact. i deleted that blog and used the email i used to use for it to make this account <3

nightmares have rendered me unable to sleep once again so i've been dancing in my room to Elvis music pretending K is dancing w/ me for the past 45 minutes. I think it'd be his way of trying to make me feel better. he isn't very experienced with comforting others but he hears me gasp awake, hears me crying. he knows the drill by now. he immediately gets up. takes my hands and pulls me out of bed. asks me if i want to talk about it, and if i don't, he turns on some music and swirls us around. he mimics elvis' voice while singing to the songs, knowing it'll make me laugh. when i finally do, he's smiling, saying very gently "there you are, sweetheart... there's my girl"

#its funny he doesnt even listen to elvis in his downtime in canon and he's become synonymous w/ his music in my mind #im so tempted to draw him in a black leather jacket and me in a poodle skirt #sharing a milkshake at the diner. OH GOD WAIT i want to draw me and Driver doing that #i need my F/Os more than ever rn it's gonna be uh. a difficult day bc i gotta work soon #and im running on VERY little sleep 😭 #i didnt sleep for 60 hours straight and then i only slept for 2 hours just now and i jolted awake #and i cant sleep again ;~; #but thank god i have ryan F/Os to think about when i jolt awake now #my dolls or my posters being the first thing i see when i wake up scared. is comforting #every tme i blink my eyes burn but it feels better knowing Driver would understand... or Six would get it bc he has c-ptsd too #i need them to hug me so tight. augh. hell on earth i wanna sleep so bad #IM FINE i dont mean to complain. well yes i do. im running on such little sleep my thoughts are all over the place #woof #love notes #💕♬♪ ♡ I can't help falling in love with you ☆- ̗̀💛 ̖́-☆ #vent #I GUESS?

[monsterously-high]

idk what my deal is because the new monster high black & white dolls look BEAUTIFUL but when I see them my brain is just like huh. Well that certainly has no color. Like the appeal of the b&w just doesn’t click? And again objectively they are lovely dolls but the aesthetic appreciation part of my mind is just drowned out by my most primal instincts being like “🤬 why Draccy Lauren is not pink 🤬🤬🤬”

#and its different from like shadow high bc those characters are already monochrome designs in the first place #but seeing a previously colorful character without color makes my brain go 🚨🚨🚨ALERT!!!! 404 COLORS NOT FOUND!!! #does anyone else have this reaction? or am i just silly #my thots #monster high #monster high reboot #monster high news #dolls #doll news

I am feeling very Normal about Chucky. Mhm. Yes sir. Very Normal indeed.

#Most of our ship takes place before the possession but. thinking about carrying around doll Chucky n helping him commit atrocities #like. the way Ti.ff holds + treats him like a baby kinda rubs me the wrong way. ma'am that is a whole grown ass man #i would treat him with more respect than that. i think it's little differences like that that he'd appreciate #little ways that i treat him better (': #I am also thinking once again about us going through a ceremony to bind ourselves to each other. #outside of marriage obviously bc marriage is overrated n i dont think he'd do it again after Ti.ff #We make a sacrifice to Damballa by killing together n use the blood for a spell that binds us deeper than marriage ever could #and y'know what. he doesnt regret it. not for a damn second. #rain rambles #Dollface #Netflix and Kill

While g3 is a lot better about including different body types, I feel like ppl are applauding the bare minimum just bc they made Draculaura's doll have a pear shaped ish body but like. Thats just an average body type?? Sorry but thats not far from the body type of our body and we are not considered fat. The rest of the characters are often simply at least a bit skinnier than whats actually average. I feel like Iris Clops and Tundra Bominable are probably the only humanoid body characters whose bodily types even diverge a bit from the norm?? And I feel like they made Clawdeen in the show (and practically every character ofher than Draculaura) very skinny compared to her live action counterpart.. It feels like media franchises want to be lauded for just having a doll and character with an AVERAGE body type and that being "body diversity" for them. Media in general makes it seem like average is "skinny but not so skinny that your bones show"

#impromptu rant and. Im not fat myself so sorry if Im speaking over fat people #but I have a gripe with ppl acting like including an average body type is so progressive #I feel it detracts from ACTUALLY including fat people in society and representing them in media #when shows are hailed for making a character have an average sized body #thats still basically not even fat #I know that the new drac doll helped some ppl w an ed #but. uh. the norm should not be made “skinny is average and this character whos a little bit bigger is body diversity” #like. Im sorry but all characters and dolls etc. shouldnt be on average made this skinny in the first place #it just promotes the false idea that the “normal” body is very skinny #and I think it functions as “thinspo” without being intended that way #or maybe it is intended. you know how corporations are #g1 mh is even worse bc all of them are stick-thin #like. bro. what. very few ppl look like that wtf..and if they did you would see their bones it wouldnt #be like “average body but just thinner everywhere” it would be like bones poking out #bc thats how bodies look if they actually have that less fat and muscle !! #monster high g3 #mh g3 #mh g3 dolls #fatphobia in media

#im losing my fucking mind over this u guys. like. time is cyclical its circular its a loop and its infinitely repeating #and youre trapped in it. and your fate is sealed from the beginning. always destined to repeat. and theres nothing you can do about it #like... dylan in av. got exonerated for the dicks but then committed vandalism anyway. his fate was set. u root for him but he was doomed #from the beginning. AND AND adam from saw. lawrence was always going to walk out of that bathroom. he left behind adam and he left behind #his corpse six years later. its inevitable. its fate. its tragedy #AND DONT GET ME STARTED ON KENDALL ROY! literally tries again and again and again to overthrow his dad and fails every time #he keeps trying and trying and u just have to keep watching him and fail and its pathetic and heartbreaking bc he is just a victim of the #cycle!!!! #ok and finally nadia from russian doll. she thought she could change things! she thought she could go back in time and fix her fate. but she #couldnt. she was doomed to repeat it. doomed to 'choose' her mother again when she never even made that choice in the first place!! #which goes to show about cyclical time and intergenerational trauma like.... that cycle of abuse is repeated over and over and over #its tragic its heartbreaking and theres nothing you can do #this is a very old story there is no other version of this story etc etc #god i am about to go insane fr #saw #american vandal #russian doll #mine
