Plushie Care

Looking After Your Plushie

Each plushie is hand-sewn, which means a little gentleness goes a long way

Daily Care

These are art pieces meant to be loved gently. Display them on a shelf or sit them on the bed. Pull limbs softly back into shape if they look squished after travel.

Don’t roughhouse with the seams — tug too hard and the stitches give.

Spot Cleaning

For small marks, spot clean with a damp cloth and a tiny dab of mild soap:

  • Dab gently — never scrub
  • Work in small circles, follow the felt grain
  • Air-dry flat, away from direct sun

Don’t machine wash, soak, or tumble dry — the felt mats and the beads can shift.

Pilling

All wool felt pills a little over time. To freshen up, snip pills off with small embroidery scissors held flat against the felt.

  • Use the smallest scissors you have
  • Always cut away from any stitching
  • Take your time — one snip at a time

Storage

Store plushies somewhere dry and out of direct sunlight. A shelf, a glass display case, or a cotton drawstring bag all work great.

Don’t store in plastic bins long-term — trapped moisture isn’t their friend.

What’s Inside

Most plushies are stuffed with polyester fiberfill for shape, plus weighted glass beads in the body for that satisfying squish. The outer fabric is ethically-sourced wool felt.

Not safe for small children or pets — the beads are choking-sized if a seam ever opens.
