Wear an old glove to dust and wipe leaves. You get both sides with one easy stroke.

Rub a little mayonnaise on the leaves of real plants. They shine like crazy for months - or until the dust settles again. (Tip is only for smooth leaved plants!)

To clean the leaves on your house plants. wash them with a solution of 1/2 cup baking soda to one gallon of cold water. This will make them shine. But make sure not to use them on fuzzy plant leaves like those of African Violets!
