Like many people, Brandy Naugle grew up around Barbies. But her love for the dolls really grew when the world shut down.
“I originally had barbies when I was a child. My grandmother and aunt were barbie collectors.”“I started collecting seriously since pandemic time,” Naugle told me during a tour of her impressive Barbie display."And I started to fall in love with the barbies again.”
“Barbie is ubiquitous with our culture. She is every person, she is everyone,” says Naugle."Anyone can find a Barbie for them." “My husband and I have been involved in the gem and mineral business for 20 years,” says Naugle. “At the Tucson Gem Show I was inspired to do a Barbie diorama, the Barbie Reiki Healing Center.”
