This really works. Wrap those charms in newspaper and let them sit for a few days. The newsprint should absorb that smoke odor. This really works!!!

Fresh air and in the sun will work the best. I am allergic to
everything and must outgass everything before being brought into the house. We leave things outside in the garage to outgass, and the sun does the best on products that we can
leave on the porch.

put in a baggie with a drier sheet for a few days or spray with fabrize

Newsprint also helps smelly refridgerators.. (of course once you find that bad boy that's causing the issue) Maybe if you wash them gently by hand and lay them out to dry.Good luck.

am not sure how one responds online so hit "reply" ... I have the same problem with yarn and smoke (woodstove) ... I just leave it in the garage to "air out" for a few days ... another trick I learned when we had a fire is to put the material in a paper bag with a few dryer sheets ... one on the bottom and one on top ... Bounce works and has a nice smell ... I always keep one in my pocket in the summer and it keeps away pesky bugs

Whether or not there are worse smells than smoke is relative. We all percieve smells differently. I personally think smoke rates right up there with some of the worst.

I once bought a charm pack from a seller on eBay who stated they were from a smoke free home. They weren't. I put them in a bag with baking soda and three days later they smelled fresh and clean again. Good luck with yours! :D

People who smoke have smelled the smeel so much that they don't realize what an odor it leaves on things and on them. So they don't think it. I would suggest running them in the drywer with a nice scented dryer sheet. Or stick them in a bag with a nice sachet. This should take it away.

I do not know about fabrics and smoking odors.

However, I was lucky to receive various magazines and books but they had undesirable household odors. I was grateful for these recycled items and I also received some hints for removing the smells.

The tips were: use wadded up newspapers and put everything in a sealed box for approximately a week. Then do a follow-up by spreading everything out in a single layer on a sunny day. Good luck! :-)

The sad thing is that "smokers" actually cannot smell the smoke. I remember when my husband quit smoking and got a whiff of his old suits in the closet and it made me nauseous. :thumbup:

Love this homemade idea! I'll do it! thanks for the idea.
