How To Clean Your Stuffable Animals

By Tracie Knight


Most of us love having stuffed toys. They are one of those valuable things we own. They remind us of all those moments that it represent. There are some that brings back those happy memories.

We should always take care of it just like our possessions. These stuffable animals have to be cleaned regularly. To maintain their look, they have to be cleaned regularly. If they are well maintained, it will be able to last for a long time. The following are procedures on cleaning them properly.

If your toy becomes dirty, look at its label for the care directions given by the manufacturer. You need to follow these directions as they are the appropriate steps which you should do. Care directions will vary based on the material they are made of. Some of it has fur coat made from synthetic materials like the polyester. Some of it has natural materials like wool as its body cover.

You will need baking soda. The baking soda should be sprinkled on the animals. It will be kept fresh by the baking soda. Just leave the baking soda in there for more or less fifteen minutes. When fifteen minutes is done, brush them off. You should not put much force when brushing them as you could damage the animal.

Get the vacuum and turn it on. Use the hose attachment of the vacuum to softly vacuum the dust particles and those dirt off the toy. Keep doing that every week. Ensure that there will be no objects which could get sucked off from the toy. One of these objects could be their loose eyes, their ribbon or bows.

If you see that there are soiled marks on it, you should remove that too. Remove it using a mild all purpose cleaner and a sponge. If it is heavily soiled, use a scrub to brush off the dirt in that area. If you wanted to remove spots and stains, you can use a rubbing alcohol for that one.

To wash toys on the washing machine needs to be the last option. Check its label again if you could have them wet. There are some of it that get damaged when it get wet so be sure to check that. If you really have to, place all of them one at a time in a pillow case. Use a safety pin to close that pillow case. Wash it on a delicate cycle mode. Add a little fabric conditioner so they would have fluffy coat.

Use some hair dryer to make it dry. Hair dryers are the best ones to use instead of the clothes dryer because your stuffed things are sensitive. You have to be cautious not to have them close to your hair dryer. If a hair dryer is not available, you can just air dry them. It would take you a few days to make them completely dried but it is the best step to do to avoid it from being disfigured.

Our stuffed animals are among our precious possessions. Some of us consider it as one of our family members. Just like your family member, one should keep taking care of those.
