How to Clean White Artificial Trees

Is anything more nostalgic and magical than a blanket of snow glistening on the branches of a tree? That's not always a reality in every climate, but artificial white trees bring that charm into the home every Christmas. Dust, dirt and grime, however, stick like magnets to a white tree and can dull the magic. Cleaning the tree regularly is the key to keeping it white and sparkling. It's a little work, but significantly less than the work of keeping snow from melting all over your floor. Does this Spark an idea?
