Spliced Wooly Shoulder Clinger

1. Spot clean your Clinger with a damp cloth and a solution of rubbing alcohol or vinegar, depending on the type of stain. We recommend a cheeky google on cleaning wool when you’re at it!
2. Hand wash in cold water or machine wash on a wool cycle with mild detergent. Dry flat, out of direct sunlight.
3. Spritz with vinegar solution to deodorise at any time. Mix 1 part vinegar and 2 parts water into a spray bottle. Shake well and spray lightly over your Clinger.
4. Remove wool pilling with a clothing brush, sweater comb or wool razor if you have one. Avoid pulling at the pilling as this can cause more damage.

This Clinger has a lengthy life ahead of it. However, if the spark fades and you don’t want your kids/grandkids to find it in your attic and take it out on the town, then here is what to do;

1. Repair - If your old friend is looking a bit shabby, giving it some love and attention to set things back on track.
2. Pass it on - find someone else who will enjoy the company.
3. Find another use for it - could it be a handy make up bag or a hanging vase for fresh or dried flowers?
4. Recycle it - Although they aren’t widely accessible currently there are textile recycling facilities across Australia.

This is a really great article with lots of suggestions for end of life <3
