When I took the curtains down I saw how faded they are in spots--maybe I'll make new ones, someday.
To answer some questions, I use a mild soap and hot water for the walls and ceilings. If the ceiling is tiny, like the bathroom, I do wash it from a stepstool by hand. A larger ceiling I would definitely use a clean sponge mop. Many of our ceilings are textured, so washing them is out. And, Mrs Meyers soap can be found here online or there are also some stores.
