Most people love stuffed toys. It is one of the valuable belongings of a person. It remind us of the moments these toys represent. Some of them bring us some of our happy memories.
We also need to be taking care of them just like our things. We should be cleaning our stuffable animals too. They have to be clean so their appearance will be maintained. If a person keeps it maintained, it could last for years. Here are the steps for you to be able to properly clean it.
If they become dirty, check first if the toys have care instructions from the manufacturer on its labels. You should follow these instructions as these are the proper ones you should do. Care instructions differ depending on the material it is made of. There are those who have fur coats made from materials which are synthetic just like polyester. There are also those who have a natural material just like wool which is covering their body.
Have some baking soda. Sprinkle some of the baking soda to the animals. The baking soda will keep them fresh for some time. Leave the soda there for about fifteen minutes. After fifteen minutes, brush it off. Do not put too much force on brushing it as you may damage your animal.
Get your vacuum and then turn it on. Use the hose attached to the vacuum to gently vacuum the particles of dust and dirt off the animals. You should do that every week. See to it that there will not be some tiny things that will be sucked off the animal. Examples of these things are its loose eyes, ribbons and bows.
If it has some soiled parts, you need to get rid of that too. Remove it with the use of mild all purpose cleaner and sponge. If the parts are heavily soiled, use some scrub to gently brush it off that part. If there are some spots and stain you wanted to remove, you may use some rubbing alcohol for it.
Washing your toy in the washing machine should only be your last option. Again, check the label if you can get them wet. There are those who will be damaged when they get wet so you have to be sure of that. If you have to do it, place them inside a pillow case one at a time. Close the pillow case using a safety pin. Wash it on the delicate cycle mode. You could also add some fabric conditioner so that they will have a fluffy coat.
Use a hair dryer in drying them. It would be best is a hair dryer is used rather than a clothes dryer since the stuffed animals are so sensitive. You need to be careful not to get it so close to that hair dryer. If one does not have dryer, he could let it be dried on air. It could take you many days to have it dried but that is the best thing to do to avoid them from getting damaged.
These stuffed things are also our valuable things. There are people who consider it as part of the family. Just like a family, one needs to keep taking care of them.
