So you got a Mouse Ear Band...

First off, thank you for your purchase.  And secondly, I hope your buddy loves their new accessory!  If you haven't bought one yet...I highly recommend go do so, but feel free to read along anyways!  

Securing the band

Each ear band comes with an elastic band to help keep the band on their head and not on the ground as you walk around.  The process for attaching them is simple, but can vary depending on the plush as some don't have an obvious spot to route the strap. 

The following plushies have unique shapes and require alternative band placement.  

• Anger - The elastic band should be put on around his head and pulled down as far as possible on the front and back.  
• Sadness - The elastic band should be put on around her neck under the back of her hair and under her chin
• Anxiety - The head band has a notch to sit on top of her hair, the elastic band goes around her neck and under the back of the hair
• Hei Hei - The elastic band should be put on around his neck. 
• Winnie the Pooh - The elastic band should be put on around his neck. 
• Chuuby - The elastic band should be put on around his neck and under the beak. 
• Rummy - The elastic band should be put on around his neck. 

Care/Storage

The headbands are made from PLA, and thus may warp when left in hot places.  When you aren't using your band it is recommended to leave it in a cool place (not your car) to help keep your band from deforming.  

The provided elastic band should be fine left attached, but if you aren't planning on taking the plush out for an extended period of time to keep it from losing its elastic stretch.  Over time, the elastic band will wear out, but can be replaced with either another one or a simple rubber band, or anything else stretchy you have access.
