How to remove a bad smell in a piece of furniture


#1- This one is for more mild to moderate smells. Grab some good baking soda, put it in a bowl and place it in the furniture piece. For example, if you’re working on a dresser you’ll need a bowl in each drawer. Close it up and leave it for at least one or two weeks. The baking soda will absorb it up like magic. You can also try using one of those odor eliminating carpet powders like this one. Use it in the exact same way as the baking soda.

#2 - This is an old-school trick that works well for those really funky smells. Just mix water and vinegar together using a half and half ratio and thoroughly wipe down your piece of furniture, then allow it to air dry. Or you can also fill a spray bottle with the solution and spray it down, whichever your little heart desires. Vinegar is a great natural cleaner and will do the trick just fine !

#3 - Buy a Murphy Oil Soap Wood Cleaner bottle. This stuff is the bomb and works wonders for actually cleaning wood and removing bad smells. And it’s so easy to use just pour some on a clean cloth and wipe the piece down really well. Easy peasy for the win and it’s really effective.
