Cleaning Faux Plants

Depending on the season, there are a couple of different ways to easily wash your faux plants.

When the weather is warm I take them outside and dunk them into a bucket of soapy water.  Rinse with the hose and let dry in the sun.

When the weather is cold I dunk them into the big master tub, filled with soapy water.  Once washed, drain the tub and rinse with clean water.  Let dry in the tub or spread out on towels.  If you use this method, you will need to clean your tub out afterward ;)
