Does anyone sell or make soft fabric boots for kitchen chair legs to stop their loud scraping against floors?

While felt pads are probably a better choice, I have seen decorative floor protectors for chairs:

you should go to home depto and buy these pad things that you stick under the legs. It dosen%26#039;t show and the have fabic ones nonslid plastic ones.
Reply:I haven%26#039;t seen %26quot;boots%26quot; for chairs before. Try your local hardware store, or even your local drugstore for felt tips that get stuck to the bottom of the legs of the chairs, they come in different sizes and colors too, I think. This way you don%26#039;t have the unsightly %26quot;boots%26quot;, but can still protect your floors.
Reply:That%26#039;s silly! Go to WalMart, Home Depot, etc., and get furniture slides- I%26#039;m not sure what tey%26#039;re called - just ask a clerk.


(boots ... that%26#039;s funny!)
Reply:A bit abstract, but a great idea,,,why not craft some yourself?





Pretty easy actually and you wouldn%26#039;t need to sew even. Just use the fabric of choice, cut and hot glue, slip on and slide about.

Reply:We got these cool things at the office supply store, and only bought them because they were on clearance, but you could do it yourself. They are yellow tennis balls, you just slash an X on one side, and slip on the legs (that already might have those rubber thingies on them). Alternatively, buy replacement rubber thingies.
Reply:Any hardware store should a collection of boots or felt products for your use to help with your chair problem.
Reply:boots may ruin the asthetic appearance of the chairs and tables. instead you should cut pieces of felt to size and stick them at the base of each leg. there will be no more loud scrapes and you%26#039;ll stop any scratching too.
Reply:WalMart has felt %26#039;sliders%26#039; for the chairs and tables, which should do what you are looking for.
