The Elly Store
Care Guide
How to keep your Elly pieces looking their best.
Clothing
- Cold hand wash with a mild detergent. Please avoid using organic detergent.
- Separate light colours from dark. Rinse until water runs clear, then gently wring out each garment before hanging.
- Expect slight colour run from initial washes.
- Delicate lace garments should be dry cleaned.
- Iron fabrics with gold foil on the reverse.
- If you prefer to machine wash, use cold water on a gentle cycle. Place garments in a laundry net before placing in the machine.
- Remove garments promptly after washing — colours may bleed if left wet for too long.
Do not
- Soak, bleach, or tumble dry.
Shoes
- Where necessary, clean leather shoes with a damp cloth and dry in shade away from direct sunlight.
- Salt-Water Sandals and Native shoes can be hand-washed in cold water with a mild detergent. Use a cloth to wipe them down and dry flat. Native shoes should be stored in a cool, dry area.
- Selected Pediped shoes may be machine-washable.
- Remove inner lining or insoles before washing.
- Always refer to your shoe packaging for detailed care instructions.
Pillows
- Cold hand wash with a mild detergent. Please avoid using organic detergent.
- Separate light colours from dark, or wash pillows with similar colours. Place them in a mesh garment bag for added care.
- Expect slight colour run from initial washes.
- Air dry recommended.
Do not
- Soak, bleach, or tumble dry.
Jellycat Toys
- Unless otherwise stated on the sew-in Jellycat label, surface wash only — use mild soap and rinse with cold water.
- Some soothers and comforters are suitable for cool machine wash. Always check the sew-in label first.
- To restore the fur, carefully dry with a hair dryer on little or no heat, then hang for several days to completely air dry.
- Jitter Toys and Musical Pulls should be sponge cleaned only.
Do not
- Machine wash, tumble dry, dry clean, or iron.
A note on ageing
Your Jellycat toy will show signs of having been loved over time, and its texture will naturally change even with the most careful cleaning. This is part of its charm.
