**Chemical Strippers**: You can grab some paint stripper from the hardware store. Just apply it with a brush, let it sit for a bit, and then scrape the paint off with a putty knife. Just make sure you’re in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves!

**Heat Gun**: If you have a heat gun lying around, that can work wonders! Just heat up the paint until it bubbles, and then scrape it off. Be careful not to burn the wood underneath, though!

**Sanding**: If you’re up for some elbow grease, sanding is a classic method. Use some coarse sandpaper to get the bulk of the paint off, then switch to a finer grit to smooth things out. Just be ready for a bit of dust!
