I have been so excited about writing this blog post with you guys the past couple of weeks now and it is safe to say that I can now FINALLY talk about it!
As you can see from the title today’s blog post is about Petty Bones Club, who were originally called Ayloulou Apparel and who I’ve spoken about in the past on my blog, which you can read here.
If you follow me on social media you will have seen that recently I announced that I had become a brand rep for Petty Bones Club! AHHHH!!! This is like a bloggers dream come true, well for me anyway.
Not only am I excited and happy to be a brand rep, but I am so happy to be a brand rep for Petty Bones Club, whose designs I have loved for nearly a year.
So on today’s blog post I will be talking about the goodies I was sent in my Petty care package, as well talking about what it means to be a brand rep for them.
First of all I’ll talk about what I was sent.
In my package I was sent three stickers and six pin badges. I feel incredibly spoilt, especially considering some of the badges are ones I’ve had my eye on buying for AGES!
The two badges I’ll talk about are the Pokemon messenger ones. There are four altogether in the collection and I was sent two of them. As you can see I got the Charmander* and Squirtle* pins. I love the designs so much as they’re adorable and show each Pokemon’s personality. I love how each of these pins have certain coloured metals to match the colour scheme of the Pokemon.
As you can see there’s gold for Charmander to match the orange, yellow and red theme and silver for Squirtle to match the blue theme. I also love that the backs for these also match the colour of the Pokemon, it’s those cute little touches that really make it for me. I’ve never seen that before and I love it so much.
I honestly cannot wait to use these pin badges and pop them on my cardigans for work, especially in autumn and winter.Β I recently bought myself another rainbow cardigan so I’ll definitely be rocking these cuties on it throughout the rest of the year!
Another Pokemon pin I was sent was the Sailor Scout Sylveon* which I’ve actually had my eye on for ages!
The PokeScout badges are a mixture of Pokemon and Sailor Moon, which is such a cute concept! I’ve never been anyone do this to date and it’s such a great and original idea! I know Petty Bones Club have a couple of different PokeScout designs out including Pikachu and Vulpix, as well as a Kickstarter which recently finished. I really want the Eevee PokeScout!
The pin badge itself is just perfect and is a gorgeous gold metal which really suits it. The Sylveon has a little crescent on their forehead too which really gives it a slight touch of Sailor Moon, which I like. As I said I’m not a massive Sailor Moon fan so this is perfect for someone like myself.
This next pin is for sure my favourite out of the bunch of goodies I was sent, for various reasons, which I will bore you with. π
It was thanks to the first two Studio Ghibli pins that Petty Bones Club that I not only discovered this brand when they were originally called Ayloulou Apparel, but it’s also what started me collection pin badges!
I just fell in love with the Haku pin badge that Petty Bones Club came out with and I had to have No Face too.
SO when I opened my Petty care package and found the Catbus* pin in there, I was so happy. Since then I’ve worn it a few times and had so many compliments on it!
I love how all the Studio Ghibli pins by Petty Bones Club have glitter on them and the glitter on the light in the Catbus windows works so well! It’s also got the gold metal, which again works really lovely with the colour scheme of Catbus.
This is a pin badge I am really excited to wear alongside my other two Studio Ghibli pins, as well as in the autumn months. I’m going to try and hint here (as well as other parts of social media…) for Petty Bones Club to make a Totoro and Soot Sprites!
The last 2 pins that Petty Bones Club sent me are the same ones and they’re the Machamp x Hercules pins, which are so quirky!
As you can see it’s a mash up of Disney and Pokemon which in turn have created this pin badge, which is pretty cool. But you know what the best bit of these are? I’ll be giving these away very soon so keep eyes peeled! π
Finally the other things I was sent in my Petty care package, were some adorable stickers! These are a cross over between Sonic and Mario! They’re all adorable and I especially love Tails as Princess Peach. These are going to be stuck into my 2018 journal.
Although you can’t buy the stickers of these on the store you can buy the pins, which I’ll link here… Sonic X Mario, Knuckles X Luigi and Tails X Princess Peach.
So those are all the lovely goodies I was sent from Petty Bones Club!
Now I just want to briefly write a little thank you to Lauren over at Petty Bones Club for picking me to be one of her brand reps. It is an honour to be perfectly honest with you and I really hope I make her proud!
If you love the look of Petty Bones Club pin badges then make sure to check out their store, which I’ll link below as well as go and visit them over on Instagram.
I now have an awesome discount code you can use on their store, which is COFFEE10. Don’t worry if you lose this post on my blog and cannot find the code to use, it will be on the side of my blog from today!
What do you guys think of the Petty Bones Club? Which pin(s) do you like? Make sure to let me know in the comments down below, as well as over on the Petty Bones Club Instagram page!
Until next time though guys, take care and I hope you have a lovely weekend.
They’re so cute! I would be collecting pins too but I honestly dont know where to put them. π€ I would probably end up investing in a pin board. Theres so many amazing artists. I wish I could get all the pins hehe
To be honest I have a pin flag I keep all my pins on and itβs amazing! Cork boards are great for keeping pins on too and you can get them pretty cheap from IKEA! π
Which artists would you like to buy pins from? π
oh ive never heard of a pin flag?? it’s just like a cloth with pins?
Yeah, I was thinking of that kinda board for pin collecting! I have one but my cats have scratched it up. I have to get a real sturdy one hehe
I love a lot of them, there’s so many but I forced myself to just look at one persons account or else i would be constantly window shopping ha
It’s Wawe studio! heres her shop : http://www.wawestudio.com/shop/?category=Pins
i won 2 pins from her and they’re the cutest things ever. I almost didn’t want to put them on my bag but i ended up doing so.
Yeah pretty much! π I was gifted mine to review but you could easily make one! π
Hang it up high enough so that they canβt get to it. ^_^
Hahaha theyβre like ugly cute pins! xD which 2 did you win? π I always wear my pins on jackets, jumpers and cardigans. I get anxious wearing them on bags in case they fall off. π¦
ooh ppl make them? interesting ima look into it.
Omg so right. It’s not like i didnt think of that, it’s just that I’m short myself so i cant make things go so high lmfao but ill find a way hehe
Yes they’re ugly cute pins lol i love them tho theyre so my style lolol
I won ugly moon and baby moon so the ugly sailor moon and the baby one. I cherish them!!
And yes me too, but i never lost one. the one time i let my boyfriend use my bookbag, he lost a pin lol! These days i have the pin on a bag that’s like polyester/some fake leather and i think its super secure. also the artist made the pins super high quality so im not nervous about those 2 π
I’m sure if you Googled someone will have made one! π It’s literally a flag shape piece of fabric with a wooden stick through a loop on some string. I hope that makes sense! If not search for Old English Company on my blog and you’ll soon find the post where I show it! π
The amount of times I’ve nearly lost my Deadpool pin badge! I can tell when it’s fallen off though as it makes a loud noise as it’s so heavy. xD
YAYY! I’m so proud of you!! How exciting β€
I absolutely love Petty Bones Club's products & it was thanks to you that I bought my first item from them back when they were called Ayloulou Apparel- the gorgeous Haku pin that you've shown in this post π I adore it so much! So thankyou for bringing it to my attention β€
You got sent such fabulous items in the care package! I've had the Pokemon messenger pins on my wishlist since they were released but omgosh I want them so much after reading your post! They are so cute!! I love that they are all so unique in design, with their different expressions and the way they are holding the envelopes. I didn't notice the different coloured metals used to match the colour schemes of the characters themselves until you mentioned it, how awesome! So much attention to detail π The PokeScout pins are brilliant! My favourite is the Vulpix one, but this Sylveon one is super pretty! I really like that the crescent moon is subtle, it's perfect!
I love the expression on the Catbus pins face! What I really like about this pin is how much originality has gone into the design, like you can tell it's the Catbus we know and love but with the artist's own spin on it. I think it's great, and I just really love seeing different artists interpretations of my favourite characters β€
Those stickers are wonderful! I want them for my laptop, so I hope they are available to purchase some day π They are super bright and eye-catching, and Sonic & Mario go so well together. Awesome post lovely, and congratulations on becoming a brand rep for this fabulous shop! x

Oh Sarah thank you so much sweetpea. :’) Your comment has made my day and it’s really cheered me up! π
I’m glad you loved the post and I KNOW I remember you telling me that it was due to my blog post all them months ago that made you get a Haku of your own! π
If you ever order and want some stickers maybe drop Lauren AKA Petty Bones Club a message and ask if you can buy some stickers or something like that? π I’m sure she wouldn’t object!
Thank you again so much for your comment Sarah. β€
