How can I remove the smell of cigarette smoke from vintage plates?

I purchased 6 bread & butter plates at Value Village, and now that I have them at home I can smell smoke which has probably soaked into the ceramic over many years. I have already washed them in dishsoap, but that hasn’t altered the smell…

Try to wash them with vinegar and lemon (don’t dowse them but let them soak it in). Have the windows open and let it dry.Use a cloth and try repeating this throughout the week at least twice .

While your letting your walls dry boil some water and put a couple sticks of cinnamon and a sheet of fabric softener in the pot. This will bring a fresh aroma throughout your home (blocking out any of the cigarette smoke).

If all else fells you may have to speak with your landlord about repainting and if you have carpet have it pulled up(don’t hesitate to speak up you are paying for the space)
