The processes can be drastically different, and we will discuss them with you. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe typically unstich and remove all stuffing to thoroughly clean the stuffy. The stuffing can be cleaned separately if we want to reuse it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis process can be different for vintage or handmade plushies with alternative stuffing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy go to cleaner for stuffed animals is powdered oxyclean. This does have a mild lingering scent. If there is a concern, such as allergies, sensory or otherwise, we can work with you. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf youd like a specific scent, I am able to do that too. Our most common request is lavender. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe like to soak sherpa stuffies in fabric softener. You can imagine why. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI hand wash every stuffy, never machine wash. Depending on the stuffy, we have different cleaning processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are thoughly dried, typically with warm air. Never in the dryer. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stuffy is fully restuffed, either with a new comparable material, one of your choice, or the original stuffing that has been steamed and dried. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI stich them back up, if they were intact. If they were needing patchwork, this is the step that I may remove seams, and handstitch or machine sew in new fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the stuffy has Sherpa fur, I use a slicker pet brush to return the soft silkyness. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI do any last minute details or cleanings of the stuffy.
