How to get smoke smell out of wood furniture?
My husband is a smoker, and the smell seems to stick to the wood furniture in our house. Well, I've tried cleaning and refreshing the room, but the smell is still there. What should I do?

You can also place coffee grounds near the furniture to absorb the smell. Alternatively, sprinkle baking soda on the wood surface, let it sit overnight, and then wipe it off the next day. Good luck!

My father is also a smoker, and I have a few tips that might help. I use a solution of water and white vinegar—wet a cloth with the solution, then wipe down the wood surface. Make sure the cloth is only damp, not wet, so you don’t damage the wood.

You can try wiping down the wood with a mixture of white vinegar and water—it helps neutralize the smoke smell. After that, place bowls of baking soda or activated charcoal inside the drawers or shelves for a few days to absorb any lingering odor. Also, leaving the furniture out in fresh air and sunlight can really help. If the smell is still strong, lightly sanding and resealing the wood might be the best long-term fix.
