Clean Artificial Flowers
Fresh flowers are fantastic to look at. Creating different floral designs of fresh-cut flowers in vases can bring instant pop and color to any space. However, some people who are allergic to pollen from flowers have to avoid them. If you have such allergies, artificial or fake silk blooms are a great alternative. They are relatively low-priced and can last for a considerably long time as long as they receive the proper care. Learn how to clean your artificial and silk flower arrangements to keep them looking better, longer.
- If you want to clean an arrangement, you can put it in a paper or plastic bag and add some grainy salt. Shake the bag continuously until the flowers are all clear of dust and dirt. The salt absorbs the dirt and dust, leaving your small silk flowers all clean.
- If you don’t have salt on hand, you can also use baking soda.
