But first, a little bit about how we became Ambassadors. Can you tell I’m excited? 🙂 And, yes, this is a giveaway, so continue to discover how you can win a Petco gift card towards anything in the store!
How we were selected…
There’s a very cool organization called BarkWorld. It’s the place to be for pet bloggers and brands who are serious about social media and growing their business. It was through the Team BarkWorld Influencer Program that Petco selected me to be an Ambassador. I’m thrilled to be able to share what I love with the Petco Community and with you!
If you don’t know about the Community, its a meeting place for people like us. Whether you seek answers in the Forum to a pet challenge you’re facing, love participating in contests (of which they have plenty), want to learn more about your pet to be a better parent or love entertaining stories on animals, there’s something for everyone. I’m going to be spending time in the Community and would love to see you there! You can check it out here.
Wait…you want to talk style? And, not just any style, but trending fashionable pieces for fans? Then, read on!
The cool, new collection that just hit Petco…
Last week, after the big holiday family visit at our place ended, my husband and I finally got out to the movies to see Star Wars (yes, my British step grand kids aren’t fans, who knew?!). I was especially excited because I love JJ Abrams. He didn’t disappoint. He directed a movie that is so fantastic; it absolutely restored the magnificence of the Star Wars franchise to its original glory!
Imagine how excited I was to discover Petco’s Pet Fans Collection™ of Star Wars apparel, accessories, home decor and toys? Very, and I’m happy to report they’ve captured the fun, whimsy, edge and personal style of some of our favorite characters.
I’m highlighting my home decor faves today, which along with the entire collection will be flying off of shelves. If you love something, go get it before it’s gone.
You can view the entire collection of fashion, home decor and toys here. I’ll be sharing my favorite apparel and accessory items with you in another post, so stay tuned.
The Chewbacca Plush Bed
How many of you love Chewy the best? He’s definitely one of my favorite characters, with his understated humor and exasperated groans. What I love about this bed is its vintage vibe, but with a rich and sleek look. It’s comfy as can be, with a plush, cozy interior (note the Chewy detailing on the bed cushion) and a handsome faux leather exterior. This shade of brown is neutral; it’ll go with many home decor color palettes. Cool Chewbacca character detailing on the front gives it a bit of an edge. This one’s spot clean only, but at a very reasonable $20.99, you don’t have to sweat it too much.
For fans of matching decor, this is for you…
The Chewbacca Dog Bowl, Place Mat, Treat Jar & Lead Holder
Petco has in its collection a very modern-looking, bronze-colored matching dog bowl and placemat that I like very much, as well as a matching treat jar and lead holder; a mini-collection within their collection for Chewbacca-lovers.
Now, hang on…maybe you’re drawn to the dark side. In that case, the Darth Vader mini-collection is perfect! As a long-time New Yorker, I love black. And, these pieces look very smart.
The Darth Vader Plush Bed
Like its Chewbacca counterpart, the Darth Vader plush bed has minky soft insides and a sleek, faux leather exterior. With the head of Vader insignia, and a Dark Side-centric patch inside, your pooch will be all powerful, all mighty. Just don’t let him get near a Chewbacca bed baby, or a canine war of galactic proportions could ensue! Spot clean, please. The cost? Also, a very reasonable $20.99.
There’s a matching, industrial-looking Darth Vader bowl (black, of course), placemat, treat jar and lead holder, so go crazy! How cute is the mat text, “The Force Is Strong With This One”? All pieces are very reasonably-priced, so you can wave your Star Wars fan flag high!
The Giveaway!
Win a $15 Petco gift card towards purchase of anything in the store! With the Star Wars collection at such reasonable prices, you’ll be able to get something in the collection with the card or put it towards one of those fabulous beds.
