How to Clean Dust From a Boyds Bear
There are a variety of collectible Boyds Bears that you can purchase and display inside of your home. As with other stuffed animals or teddy bears, dust can accumulate on different parts of your Boyds Bears over time. Using only your hand to wipe off the bear may not remove all of the dust from the Boyds Bears. You could miss some of the dust on the bear if you use too large a brush, and spraying a Boyds Bear with a cleaner could stain the bear.
