Do you also love plush toys but have noticed that over time they can collect dust and get dirty? No worries! Here are the 10 best methods to keep your beloved plushies clean and fresh.
1. Dusting
Use a small dust cloth or a soft brush to regularly remove dust. It can also be a good idea to use a small handheld vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment.
2. Hand Washing
Fill a bowl with lukewarm water and a mild soap. Dip a cloth in the mixture and gently wash the inside of your plushie.
3. Washing Machine
For plushies that can withstand it: Place them in a laundry bag and run a delicate cycle with cold water. Always use a mild detergent.
4. Spot Treatment
For stubborn stains, use a mixture of baking soda and water to rub the stains, let dry, and dust off.
5. Really Stubborn Stains
Use a toothbrush and a little baking soda to gently scrub away the stain. This is especially useful for older plushies.
6. Fresh Scent
To keep your plushies smelling lovely, fill a spray bottle with water and a little vinegar and spray over the entire toy.
7. Quick Deodorizing Method
Place a few cotton balls dipped in essential oils around the plush toy. This works well to neutralize and add a new scent.
8. Sunbathing
Allowing plush toys to sit in the sun for a few hours can help kill bacteria and give them a fresh feeling.
9. Storage
Do not store plush toys in damp or dusty areas. A well-sized, dry, and ventilated space works best.
