Caring for Your Bears
We, as your loveable, adoring and collectible bears and hares, know that sometimes (when ya least expect it) we get dusty and maybe a wee bit dirty. Playin' in dark corners and pouncin' on unsuspecting dust bunnies will do that to a Boyds critter!
Wunderin' how to keep us spic and span (aside from chainin' us down)? Follow these cleanin' methods to give us that almost new, squeaky-clean (but devil-may-care) look.
Resin Figurines
An unused soft makeup brush or paint brush (no turpentine, please) will remove dust very easily. (But it really tickles, so please be kind!)
Using a can of compressed air will also do the trick. (But please watch the eyes and ears!).
Finally, any small electronic vacuum will clean us up nicely. (It's the best kinda massage!).
Although you may like bubble baths, you can't take us in there with ya (that's what rubber ducks are for!). Please forgo the soapy water - it's murder on our delicate details!

But wait, yer not quite done. Haven't you forgot sumptin'? A big hug will make us feel like our old selves again!
Special Primpin' Instructions Fer Yer Plush
Ok, so we aren't the best travelers. How do you think you'd look if you were crammed in a tiny little box with several other of yer best friends and shipped across the country (minus the complimentary peanuts and soda)? Answer: Pretty Shabby!
Well, we critters got a quick fix. Grab a brush and scissors, set us up on the barber's stool, and go to town (please no electric razors!). You'll want to brush the fur in the direction of the nap (gently, gently!), and for those stubborn fly-aways, nothin's better than homeade hairspray (i.e. spit). If we're made of Chenille, forget it - start brushin and watch the fur fly! Besides, we were meant to look a bit disheveled.
If yer wonderin' what happened to our eyeballs, "They're There," just covered up by stray fur. If yer not crazy about the
