☆ in this video, i show you guys how to wash thrifted plushies and pillows! You can't just throw plushies and pillows in the washing machine because it will beat up the stuffing and make them lumpy, hand-washing is the best option to keep them in the best shape possible! Make sure to avoid bleach, and use a toothbrush to gently spot-clean stains and dark spots!

Also as someone who works at a thrift store, this is just...amazing. People often have the misconception we clean things before selling, but we get SO much stock we would never have time to. Now I won't hesitate to buy these cute plushies! T_T And your message at the end, plus your lil chicks. Awwww! Youre a sweetheart.
I'm thankful for thriftshops not cleaning stuff because more then possible they would clean it wrong and ruin any value
hannah: *drowns them* hannah: i love the noises :)
This is a very well lit together video and useful for anyone wanting to hand clean, but 95% of the time delicate cycle in cold water in a washing machine is fine.
Tysm! I just found a Winnie the Pooh pillow pet at the thrift store! I can't wait to do this with him!!
LOVE the vintage care bears!!! I still have my original Cheer bear from when I was a kid and eventually found the rest of the originals (not the cousin ones) at thrift stores and eBay. Washed them all and they turned out great.
So happy to have found your channel. You rock it!
Love the video!!! 💛💛💛

Thank you!
watching this to properly wash my spirited away Kaonashi plushie and a Kageyama plushie from the thrift store😁
You could use shampoo and conditioner for washing stuffed animals because I did that and it turned out really good
Does it depend on the brand or can it be whichever? ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ
@@fruityloops6780 can be any stuffed animals
@@fruityloops6780 plushies come with a tag on them that shows what they can't be washed with and how they should be dried ^^ have a nice day!!!
the yellow carebear is so adorable! i actually found one like it but its not as furry 😣 ur video is so helpful bcs i just thrifted some plushies, thank youuu ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi, I found a Day Dream Bear at a swap meet recently with a still intact voice box, I was wondering if you knew how to properly wash it, at least on the outside?
Does the rinse cycle help with not making their fur crunchy? That’s my only fear washing them.
Do you have a link to where you got that drying rack? Or a brand name? Thank you ❤
How do we keep them fluffy o wanna resell Mines but don't wanna rui. Them
how do i know when the inside of the plush is dry
I've had a xl hello kitty for 8 -9 years. I have never washed her due to being scared to. damage her. After watching the video and getting some context I think I'm finally ready to clean my plush for the first time 😢....... For context I got her when I was in middle school 7th grade so maybe 13 years old. I'm almost 21. .
Going to try this with a plush I recently bought from Ebay. It's not visibly dirty, except the fur on it is.. sticky..?? My mom said it was just damp, but after letting it sit for 9 hours it still feels oily and sticky. Which makes me worry. I originally just wanted to toss it in the washing machine, but I've been having problems with something in the wash cycle. (Washing machine + dryer. I think it's the dryer but I'm not wanting to take any risks as this was an expensive plush.) I can't dry outside, how can I dry it? I'm thinking using a towel just so it's not sopping wet, then letting it sit on a rag with a fan or putting it in the dryer on the "no heat" setting. Think that would work? I really don't want to mess up the plush. While it isn't exactly rare, the shipping to get it here is usually 10-20 dollars, and the plush alone is nearly 20. I'm just a kid with a little bit of allowance, I can't afford to buy several replacements if I mess up.
Ty! Getting a rather nasty Zero from Mega Man plushie off of EBay, he made me so sad looking at him all dirty like that I had to have him... Been looking for some good tips for hand cleaning!
Awww i do grt some plush at sales n thru r lil dirty they grt passed cause thry dorty2
I have just washed them in my washer and dried them in my dryer…nothing special and it works great!!😁🙌🙌😁🙌🙌😁
I know I've read dont buy stuffed animals at thrift stores. Thrift store i use to go to had a huge bin of them all the time and i also donated some. Most stuffed animals you can wash, even if its in a tub or sink. You can even restuff them for cheap if they seem to be to flat. Im 53 and even i got stuffed animals from a thrift store when i was a kid and washed them. I had some old stuffed animals that actually were stuffed with weird Styrofoam, i took the seam out of the back and took it out ,washed the stuffed animal and restuffed with the fluffy stuff like for pillows. Allot of things they say dont buy, you can and wash real good and disinfect. My mother bought a nice big braided rug at a yard sale sge cleaned ut with the attachment on a carpet cleaner. It was nice and she put it in her living room in front of the fire place. Funny, because clothes from.thrift stores can be gross to, you have no idea where it was or what is on it. People have no problem buying the clothes. Soak wash, use Borax or white vinegar in with it. You can see bed bugs, so for people saying dont buy it can have bed bugs. I've been nice quilts and bedspreads in thrift stores. Just put directly in wash when you get home.
1984 damn older then me... I jut not sure how to dry what to do theu seem different I also heard wash them inside a pillow case
I have Funshine Bear and I wash my stuffed animals by hand cause I’m worried about them being torn into teeny tiny pieces
She has the haircut my little sister used to give to her Barbie dolls
LMAOOOOO
Why do you have to be so mean to a young lady trying to help people out?? Let's see your haircut so we can make snarky comments about your ugly ass self!!
What kind of soap should I use ?
I used shampoo it worked really good
regular laundry detergent, i’d go with a clear one just to be safe
i dont want to put them deep submerged in water because i think the stuffing inside will get ruined if theyre delicate and already fragile
You are cute like the chicks. Good info.
You're cute 😁
I am not a guy. If you want me to watch your videos, make them for women, too.
Why tf do you keep commenting this lmfao no one cares.
Maybe she doesn’t want you to watch
cringe, go watch your boring ass malebrained youtube vids 4 “da real men”. We’ll be watching plush washing vids thank you very much.
Plushies are for everyone? Lol.
Don’t think Hannah said that anywhere, your comment wreaks of insecurities Lorraine.
