Accessorize With Dolly
While looking through Etsy shops to find one for this week’s Yes Please! feature, this one immediately caught my eye! Not only does this piece match Channelling Dolly’s logo, but you can also accessorize with Dolly!
This lovely Dolly inspired necklace is brought to us by Sofie Johnson of Cat Fight Back via Etsy. The reason behind this creation according to Sofie is that Dolly is an awesome (music) feminist icon!
The Dolly Parton Cabochon Necklace is available to ship worldwide from Sweden. The bronze chain and pendant are handmade. Custom orders are also welcome!
