Heating Instructions

For safe and proper use, follow the manufacturer's heating instructions:

  1. Do not microwave Churro for longer than 60 seconds per use. Only reheat her from room temperature.

  2. Place Churro in the microwave and heat for 30–60 seconds, depending on your microwave wattage and desired warmth.

    • Approximately 30 seconds for 800–1000W microwaves

    • Approximately 60 seconds for 500–750W microwaves

  3. If she isn't warm enough after 60 seconds, heat in 15-second increments, carefully monitoring throughout.

  4. Place a small cup of water in the microwave alongside Churro to help prevent overheating or burning.

  5. Moisture during heating is normal and can occur because humidity is absorbed by the fabric and tourmaline beads.

  6. Place Churro on the desired area and enjoy the warmth until she returns to room temperature.

Important: Always monitor the plush while heating and follow the included instructions carefully. Do not exceed the recommended heating time.

Washing & Care Instructions

For optimal care, remove the internal filling pouch before washing the exterior.

  • Spot clean or hand wash as needed.

  • Machine wash the exterior on a delicate cycle with cold water.

  • Air dry completely.

  • Make sure the plush is completely dry before reheating.

We’re all about fast, fabulous, and fun — but we’re not Amazon drones (yet). Here’s how shipping with Twirls + Twigs works:

Processing Time

We need up to 3 business days to wrap your order in gratitude (and bubble wrap) before handing it off to the shipping powers that be.

Shipping Rates & Delivery

  • Shipping costs are calculated at checkout (sorry, the post office doesn’t accept hugs as currency).
  • Delivery times depend on your carrier’s mood, traffic, and whether Mercury is in retrograde.

Local Pickup

Delays Happen

If your package takes a detour (blame weather, carrier hiccups, or cosmic chaos), we’ll help track it down, but a little patience goes a long way.

Address Oopsies

Double-check your shipping info at checkout — once it’s shipped, we can’t chase down a wrong address (no matter how magical our socks are).

Lost or Damaged

If your package arrives looking like it lost a battle with a raccoon, email us within 3 days with photos. We’ll make it right — gratitude guaranteed.
