Can I use different types of balloons?

Yes! While latex balloons work best, you could experiment with other types, just be mindful of their texture and stretch.

How do I store the squishies?

Keep them in a cool and dry place to prevent any damage. They can be stored in a basket or easily thrown into a soft bag.

Can I wash these if they get dirty?

Since these are made from balloons and yarn, spot cleaning is recommended. Avoid submerging them in water.
