How to Clean Furry Slippers?

- Rince the slippers in clean water
- Mix together one part vinegar and one part water and soak the slippers in the mixture for about an hour and a half for them to completely soak up the solution.
- Sprinkle some of the baking soda on the slippers and let them sit for the night.

- You then dab the excess water using your towel.
- You should then set the slippers outside where it is sunny or next to a heater for them to properly dry.
You now have some fresh furry slippers.
