So my boyfriend has a custom made Gardevoir plush. Being a child at heart, he sleeps with it every night. As would be expected, she started showing signs of dirt, so I helped him clean her. Because she is kind of a delicate plush, we did a hand wash method. I used an all natural unscented detergent, warm water, and a soft towel to clean her. It helped with some of the dirt, but she has now lost some of her softness. She is a minky plush, and parts of her are feeling kind of stiff. How do I soften her up again?
Any advise is appreciated.
