I LOVE the restoration of a well loved toy. I feel like they have feelings and they are overjoyed for a second chance!

[@jaynestag95]

They do have feelings. I have Jacko Chimps and all other types of animals and they each get my attention or I feel bad because they may think there's favouritism.

[@paulinacarlisle7389]

I believe they have feelings too ..! I live alone and talk with my stuffies all the time! They are such good company!

[@sundayok2307]

I watched this vid to see if it could help me fix one of my old stuffed animals that I have had since I was 6

[@cinnamonbun1354]

I did this with my cow plush he practically bald but I love him like that I washed and re stuffed but I put a crystal inside him I love my cow so much

[@bearcareasmr2976]

Awww, I'm glad to hear he's so loved ❤

[@jonathanjimenez1206]

bro im thinking to do the same with my koala (coli) he bald too

[@Colesstar]

Don’t mind me omw to take the crystal 😶/j

[@Roses6858]

You can sew wool through bald patches, cut the wool down and brush it down. But maybe watch a yt tutorial first lol.

[@cidercake4373]

I also have a cow! I love him very much. I'm glad your cow is loved.

[@juhlsghouls]

This honestly makes me want to revive my old collie stuffed animal from childhood.

[@bearcareasmr2976]

It's therapeutic and rewarding 😌 good luck!

You should! I hope it goes well!

Guess what?After watching your video im finally going to restore my 38yr old rabbit that I still sleep with.She's my best friend & I can't even sleep without her.Thank you🥰

[@woffydoggy686]

I love to read this! I have a 30 yr old red teddy bear and in hard times I still sleep with him. This gives me enough peace to fall asleep.

[@ditahargrove2804]

I still sleep with my 30 year old stuffed bear my mom got for me when I was very I’ll. I want to restore him but I will miss him if I can’t sleep with him for a night or two.

[@oldart1948]

Also unless you do a load of laundry on cold, don't put stuffed animals in the washer and dryer! Heat damage comes easily to faux fur. Hand wash instead :)

[@tomie...]

Yeah!! My mom learned this the hard way lol.

[@seemsprettygaytome6116]

Yeah I’m washing my stuffed animal right now, he’s in the washing machine but of course I put it on cold. And delicate and he’s in a pillow case

[@vincetravis8701]

The best way to wash stuffed animals (without hand washing) is to put your stuffed animals in a white zip-up pillowcase, set your machine to cold/delicate cycle, and then set your dryer on low heat or air only. Once dry, brush your stuffed animals with a boar brush or slicker brush to knock out any tangles or mats. If you DO decide to hang dry your stuffed animals, hang them in an area with air flow. Long periods of dampness can cause mold to grow inside your stuffed animals (which can be bad for health). Also, *pay attention to what your stuffed animals are stuffed with!* It's actually very important for you to know so you know how to wash them. Most modern stuffed animals are stuffed with polyester filling, which makes it safe to be used in a washer and dryer. If your stuffed animal contains plastic lentils (beanie babies for example) or genuine organic cotton, then it's best for them to be hand washed as those materials can combust if exposed to high heat (cotton especially).

[@444ngelsss]

Wish I saw this earlier 🙃

[@CandyHatsuneWolff]

I just did that with a plushie the other day. Cold, in a pillowcase, with laundry quat sanitizer and an extra post-detergent rinse. She came out almost dry!

When I was a kid, I got asmr tingles from watching a tape about a how people restored antique toys in a museum and this video has the same effect. Super calming and nostalgic for me. ❤❤❤

[@bearcareasmr2976]

That is so lovely to hear, I'm glad you were able to experience that again 🥰

This person needs 10× the attention they get, not only is it helpful and satisfying, but it also will make a child/adult happy to see their fuzzy friend good as new ♥

[@leicalove9384]

This is so heart warming. The effort and love you put into restoring this cute ol'fella. Almost makes me cry

[@MookieB]

You did so good!!! I bet vanilla is very happy with all the work you put in for him :D

[@bearcareasmr2976]

Thank you! That means a lot!

[@nicole_toast]

Good job!! Vanilla turned out so great! I find the best stitch to use when closing a stuffy is using the ladder stitch. It’s actually suuuper easy and makes the end product look seamless! I do suggest tho that if you have an easier time with a running stitch, you should pull your needle through the outside of the fabric rather the inside so you don’t get the extra fabric seams to show in the end. Sewing with the two sides together and sewing on top with the ladder stitch

[@mr_cheepers6940]

Thank you for helping me restore my 21 year old stuffed bunny, Elizabeth has been my best friend all my life, and I'm so happy to give her a much needed makeover :)

[@BK69420]

Ive had a stuffed bunny for a long time and it’s currently where my family lives, hopefully I’ll get her back soon… she brought me so much comfort in life. Once I get her back I’m strongly considering to send her your way. I love watching these videos and how much you show care to all these stuffies!! ❤️❤️❤️

Pls continue to post if you want!! I've been looking for stuffed animal asmr videos forever

[@fluffybunny7089]

That's an amazing transformation and the bear looks as good as new. I really liked the brushing sounds.

[@CandyHatsuneWolff]

New subscriber. 😁 I love (trying to) restore things. Any idea why his stuffing stuck to the inside of the fabric? If it's poly fluff and not real cotton, maybe it stuck in the washing machine?

[@AAA-vv7wf]

He looks so good! How do you not have more subs? That looks like it takes a lotta hard work-

In the beginning, when the teddy was inverted, it looked like you were tugging off the fur 😂🥺💖 But then I realized it was just that the stuffie was inverted and you were plucking off the cotton, haha!! 🥰 This video was so cute n soothing, thank you for this perfect vid!

Is it just me or was that bear smiling at the end. 🐻‍❄ 😊 PS...my granddaughter found my daughters bear I had put away. Mr. Bear as my daughter called him is 37 years old. Thanks for this, I am going to attempt to breathe new life into Mr. Bear. I remember my brothers boys were so jealous of Mr. Bear I had to buy them their own 😊😅. When I'm no longer here, I hope my granddaughter can pass Mr. Bear on for a long life. Thanks so much.

TE quedo muy bien!!!me encanta como lo cepillaste.

[@hunnybunz7732]

He looks so much happier at the end of the video 🐻

[@artboxfashion4042]

I prefer a long soak with frail stuffed animals. You just change the water every day until its clean to avoid handling too much. Instead of wringing out, blot with bath towels and hang up to dry instead of dryer.

[@lauralulu4444]

I really love that the captions were the commentary! I think that's a cool way to not have talking but still have commentary :D What a cute bear! he looks so happy to be given a spa day :) Thanks for the great video!

[@loveheart5823]

I sometimes fix some teddies of mine and blankets that get kind of matted down I found using a cat brush actually detangles and makes things so Fluffy and they are generally on the bigger side Your teddy turned out great! Looking a bit brighter while still on the well loved side (which i think makes any teddy look cuter)

[@bearcareasmr2976]

I see, thanks for the tip! I'll be looking into using a cat brush

[@ipetzombies]

What sort of cat brush do you use?

[@loveheart5823]

@@ipetzombies i used the Burts bees one but im sure any really fine cat brush will work. I do want to put out there that it makes things really Fluffy and if you want to keep a finer texture its better to use something else like bear care did :)

I have the exact same bear! But in dark brown XD I just read the description and saw the name of your bear, I found it really funny because mine's name is Chocolate! XD they're cousins! Anyway Chocolate is really old and I didn't wanted to take him to the laundry because I was scared he would break or something so I was looking how to clean him when I stumble on this video :) I clicked on this one because I notice they're the same. Thank you for the video, you saved poor old Chocolate 🤎

Makes me want to put some work into this big duck plushie I have! I was given him for free from a lady's thrift shop in great condition, but my mom insisted on washing him in the washer and dryer right after lol. He's clean but his long fur got very tangled! I should go back and see if I can brush ol' Stormy's fur out :)

just wondering where you got this bear? i have one exactly like this in a bit of a better condition. missing lots of stuffing and had a few stitches i did myself and just today im looking up videos to fix him. and im surprised to find your bear that looks like mine. Since i got my bear from a yard sale and he had no seller tags like Hasbro or anything i never learned who made him. Do you know yours?

[@LamourVanity09]

I have a bear I’ve had since I was in the Newborn ICU (I’m 30) and he has bare spots and no stuffing in his tum. I’m a little afraid to work with him but he needs some loving, do you have any tips on how to help him? I’ve mended tiny tears in him by sewing them up over the years but nothing too big.

[@bearcareasmr2976]

I understand the fear! If you're willing to, you can use yarn and poke over the bare spots to fill them in with "hair." Or make a very tiny incision and gently put tiny pieces of cotton until he's well rounded.

[@LamourVanity09]

@@bearcareasmr2976 thank you I may try that! I worry because of his lack of stuffing, so if I put some in him he’ll be alright. He’s been my buddy for so long I want him to continue lol

Going to have to send my bear out to be restored again. We did a short patch work when I was 13 and couldn’t be away from her for my then a week. Coming up on 20 and still sleep with her.

Can you do a restore of a broken unicorn horn plush?

[@thomasplouffe1363]

this is why you NEVER put soft toys in the washing machine and dryer, especially the dryer, the second you said hes been in the washer i went "ohhh nooo" dryers and stuffed animals is the worst combo ever because the heat melts the plush, plus the "cotton" inside them is made from plastic fibers and melts inside and sticks to the fabric, if you need to wash a stuffed animal use a steam cleaner, some stuffed animals can go into the washer but only on selective settings, if you need to put one in the dryer place it on low heat and on gentle wrapped inside of a pillow case thats tied shut in the opening
