Hurrah – Marina is at it again with her wonderful stain removal skills!
This time Marina’s dry-cleaning skills weren’t being applied to a garment refresh, Instead we got to see Marina’s fab ability to remove stains applied to some much loved items: two cuddly toys.
It may not seem like the most obvious thing to take into your local dry-cleaner and yet getting a teddy bear or cuddly toy cleaned professionally makes perfect sense. These items are often dearly cherished and thus taken all over the place. Soft toys are dropped on the ground, dragged by an ear, hugged tight and lavished with kisses. They can be left in the car, stuffed into bags and left behind at school. All of these things may leave them looking a tad scruffy, but more importantly really quite covered in dirt and germs!
This is why we think that giving soft toys a good clean once in a while is not only a great way to preserve them for as long as possible (we all know the heartache it can cause when a dedicated owner of a teddy bear finds themselves having to part with it forever..) but a re-conditioning will also help get rid of dirt so as to help keep the toys nicely clean.
