Worry Doll necklace

When my daughter first wore her Worry Doll necklace, she couldnโ€™t stop touching the tiny pendant, tracing its little shape with her fingertips. I told her the story behind the traditional worry dolls – how you whisper your worries to them at bedtime so they can โ€œholdโ€ them for you. She loved that idea and said it felt like wearing a tiny friend around her neck.

My daughterโ€™s eyes lit up the moment she saw this delicate Wish necklace. She wore it the entire afternoon – running around the garden, reading her favourite book under the trees and didnโ€™t tug at it once. The lightweight chain sat comfortably on her neck, and the tiny star shimmered every time the sunlight caught it. Itโ€™s become her go-to piece for school days and weekend adventures, proving itโ€™s as practical as it is pretty.
