Personalising My Mobility Aids

Hello my lovelies!
I wanted to share with you something that is arty but also personal too. If you know me in real life or are friends with me on FB you will probably already know that I am disabled. If not you do now!  Anyway, I was kinda waiting in case I got fixed. I can't be fixed. So in order for me to get closure on my old life I decided to make my 'aids' mine. So I 'Sezed' them! (Sezed means personalised them) 😊
I used some fab Galaxy Duck Tape as a starting point. I applied the tape to the metal parts I wanted to cover. This took me a while! It wasn't particularly easy either, but I did it! I then sponged on some Black, Purple, Pink and Orange acrylic paint in different areas making sure I covered the joins of the tape to hide them. I then flicked White acrylic paint on with a toothbrush. Once dry I added some Iridescent glitter glue in spots to look like stars. I also made some covers for the armrests on my wheelchair. They are made from fluffy socks and elastic so I can wash them. I am happy with how my 'aids' have turned out and they're definitely more 'Sez'.


My wheelchair is named 'Speedy'. I need her for distances out and about.





This is my crutch it's name is Crutch... haha! 😜 Well that's the name that stuck, not very imaginative, but there you are!



I really appreciate you stopping by my little blog.
Much love and crafty hugs
