How to Care and Clean Your Teddy at Home
Soft Teddies are the much-needed anecdotes to our joy rides! Teddies are almost first gift we give to our love one or its first gift to our little one. There are so many ways in which they deliver care and love to us. Not only are they” the guardian angels” to our toddlers but are equally important for the adults and oldies; giving them a chance to enjoy the amusing child-like experience while they’re lost in the evanescence of human life. The delight and magic teddies spell on kids is so much so that they want to hold their presence at every single moment but as the days, months, and years pass, our boo-boos might wear and tear. And it’s the mothers who are on pins and needles about those molds and dust mites on their kiddies’ best friends that can be a carrier to the germs sliding into their bodies. But mummies need not worry! The under-mentioned cares will definitely cure your ailing teddies!
Washing the Furry friend
- Thinking of a washing machine right? Well, you gotta tread carefully. For an absolute luxurious cleaning of teddy bears, machine washes are not advisable. Just imagine the poor thing hitting and spinning the sides of the barrels. Is the play buddy worth this pain? But still, if the tag on your teddy says that it’s machine-wash-safe and for some genuine reason you have to wash it that way then do that by keeping it in a mesh bag or a pillow cover. Make sure the cover’s color is white! Not all teddies are okay with the machine spinning so checking the merchandise tag is a must before taking this step.
- The ultimate option for Giant teddy bear cleaning is to clean them after 15 -20 days with a damp cloth. Again make sure that the color is white. You’ll be able to see the dirt coming out of your teddy’s body and at the same time need not worry about the change in its color. For drying the wetness, you can use a hairdryer on a cooling mode. Be gentle!
- Vacuum cleaning is another miraculous mantra to clean them! Cover the end of the upholstery nozzle with some very thin cotton, silk, or linen cloth, a gauze basically, and with a minimum suction speed rid him from the germs!
- Baking Soda and Vinegar is a nice affordable DIY for a teddy wash. Soak him in a bucket full of water, add both the ingredients in it, and after 10 mins hand wash. For drying, be mindful! Squeeze the water slowly out of each body part. No turning and twisting. It’s going to be a patience test! After this either use the hairdryer idea as mentioned above or you can put it in a plastic bag and dry it in the laundry air drying rack. If you can spare a day then keep it somewhere where sun rays do not come directly over the toy. The sensation of warmness will dry but that takes many hours. After this even up the furs with a soft comb. And he’s ready to rock!
Removing the odor
- To be done only after bathing or proper cleaning of your teddy.Baking Powder Or Baking Soda and Cornstarch powder will do the deed.
- Take a big bag of plastic, put the teddy and the above two in it, and wrap it tightly.
- Give it a good shaking so that the powder gets fully absorbed into his furs. You can groove on to some beats as this will also take some time. Following this, take out the soft bear and let it sit for 4-5 hours at least.
- Use a soft brush and set the teddy ready!
