I reminded myself of this tip today when I was sprucing up my bathroom. I found it years ago on the internet, don't remember where. If you have silk flowers that have gotten a bit dusty, you can put them in a bag with a handful or two of cornmeal, and shake the closed bag around for a bit. When you remove the flowers, the dust will be gone. Any residue left from the cornmeal is pretty easy to remove.

I've had good luck with rinsing them under the faucet, shaking the water off, and hanging them to dry above the laundry tub.
I've heard this method used with sea salt or larger grain salt and it would be cleaner than cornmeal
