(Easily) Repair That Torn Soft Toy / Plush

I learned to repair soft toys from this 30-second video. I've fixed rips in at least 4 of my daughter's teddies since then. So sharing it with you!

Remember, soft toys are textiles. So if too worn to mend or re-home, pop them in textile recycling:
* Clothing banks in public car parks, or
* Civic amenity centres, or
* Some charity shops get paid for un-sellable textiles by recycling companies (ask your local shop whether they do).

See our "New lease of play: cleaning and repairing your child's toys" article for more tips like this!
