Getting Rid of Smoke Smell
DH's parents very graciously gave us some furniture (bed, dresser, nightstand) for our spare room. The only problem is that they both smoke, and all the furniture reeks of it! We've tried Febreeze, and it helped some, but mostly it just smells like we tried spraying Febreeze to cover the smoke smell. Is there any way to get rid of this smell?

Cancer sucks.
We received a piece of furniture from my Grandmother, and had the same problem. We wiped it down with Murphy's soap, and it helped. We did it several times over a few months, though.
Good luck!
All of the above, plus SUN. Leave it in the sun for a few days. Take drawers out. I also rotate directions during the day to maximize the sun. Bring it in at night incase of rodents or rain.
Good Luck
