Plushies & Keychains: Spot clean as needed.
Beanies (Yarn Pom)
Hand wash, do not get the pom wet. Don’t pull on the pom strands either, they will come out.
Removable Pom Beanies Hand wash, but remove the pom before washing it. Faux Fur poms stink if they get super wet and don’t dry properly, so just avoid swimming in it. (Seattle drizzles are fine, just blow dry it or something when you get done outside.)
Clothing, Bags, and other clothing adjacent items:Hand wash with a no-rinse wash (I like the brand Soak in Celebration) in water that a baby can sit in safely, too hot can shrink, expand, or felt the fabric, it’s weird, just test it on the inside of your wrist. Hurts? too hot. Do not agitate, just gently squish it to get fully wet, let it soak for a bit, then gently ring it out, lay it flat on a big towel, roll the towel and the item up inside, then step on it (remove your socks first) like you’re squishing grapes with your feet. (That’s weird but also very satisfying and efficient I suppose.) Or put it in a salad spinner. Then lay flat to dry. Or hang it up if that makes sense.
