Have you ever made a stinky book box?
I had this book acquired from a swap site that smelled so strongly of cigars I could barely stand to open it. But I really wanted to keep it! So I lined a small box with fresh kitty litter and baking soda, fanned the book slightly and set it down on its edge, so the spine faces up and the pages open a bit. Sealed it all in a large plastic bag for two weeks. Now the book still has some odor, but it\’s pretty faint and very tolerable.
I\’m sure there\’s a better way to make a stinky book box; more air-tight and a better odor-eating material, but this is what I had and it worked pretty well for me!
