Heart Plushie Care: Keep Your Stuffed Toy Clean

Quick answer

Spot clean your heart plushie with a damp cloth and mild soap for small stains, or machine wash on a gentle cycle in a pillowcase for a deeper clean. Always air dry flat to preserve the plush shape.

How to clean your heart plushie

1. Spot clean small stains: Dampen a soft cloth with cool water and a drop of mild liquid soap. Gently dab the stained area—don't rub, as that can distort the embroidery. Rinse the cloth with plain water and dab again to remove soap residue. Check that the cloth is only damp, not wet, to avoid soaking the stuffing.
2. Machine wash for a full refresh: Place the heart plushie inside a zippered pillowcase or mesh laundry bag to protect the embroidery. Use the gentle cycle with cold water and a small amount of mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Skip the spin cycle if your machine lets you—excess spinning can misshape the plush.
3. Air dry flat completely: Lay the plushie on a clean, dry towel in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat. Reshape it gently while damp. Allow 24–48 hours to dry fully inside. Do not use a dryer or radiator. If the stuffing feels lumpy after drying, massage the plushie gently to redistribute the fill.
