**Use a Paint Stripper**: Grab a good-quality, eco-friendly paint stripper. Just apply it with a brush, let it sit for a bit, and then scrape off the old paint with a putty knife. Make sure to wear gloves and work in a well-ventilated area!

**Try Heat Gun**: A heat gun can work wonders! Just heat the paint until it bubbles up, then scrape it off. Just be careful not to burn the wood underneath, and keep it moving to avoid damage.

**Sanding**: If you’re up for a little elbow grease, sanding can do the trick. Use a medium-grit sandpaper to start, then switch to a finer grit for a smooth finish. Just remember to wear a mask to avoid inhaling dust!

**Vinegar and Water**: For a more natural approach, mix equal parts vinegar and water, heat it up, and apply it to the paint. Let it sit for a bit, then scrape it off. It’s less harsh and safer for you and the environment!
