How to Clean and Care for Your Jellycat Bag

Quick answer

Spot clean your Jellycat Bag with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry flat. Avoid machine washing or soaking to preserve the liquorice fur and cotton lining.

Step-by-step care routine

1. Spot clean stains immediately: Dab a clean, damp cloth with a drop of mild soap (like baby shampoo) and gently rub the affected area. Do not scrub hard—this can mat the fur. Rinse the cloth with clean water and dab again to remove soap residue. Always test soap on a hidden spot first to check for colorfastness.
2. Air dry flat, away from heat: Lay the bag flat on a towel in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight. Do not use a hairdryer or radiator—heat can melt synthetic fibers and warp the zipper. Fluff the fur gently with your fingers once dry. Avoid wringing or twisting the bag; it can distort the shape.
3. Store properly when not in use: Keep the Jellycat Bag in a cool, dry place. Stuff it lightly with acid-free tissue paper to help it hold its shape. Do not hang by the strap for long periods—this can stretch the webbing. Avoid storing in plastic bags; breathable cotton dust bags are best.
