WASHING INSTRUCTIONS FOR FINISHED PRODUCT: Put the stuffed animal in a pillowcase and close the hole with a hair tie. Put it in your washing machine on a gentle/delicate cycle using cold water and a very small amount of detergent so it will smell good. Let it air dry until it is completely dry. You may have to reshape the stuffed animal slightly. You can surface treat any stains.
