Check the bottom of your chair legs...

This does not seem so important, but if you have a ceramic flor or even better, a marble floor, you need to check these. Why? Because most chairs come with a plastic glide hammered to the bottom of each leg. These are great until they wear down or break off leaving a nail head to scrape your flor.

If you find that this glide is no longer there, turn your chair so that the legs are facing up, with a pair of pliers or flat head screwdriver, remove the nail. Replace the plastic glide with a new one. It may be a good Idea to change all the glides since they are just as old as the one you replaced.

If you have a hardwood floor, you might consider using the glides which have felt on them. The furniture glides easier and there is less chance of scratches.

Enjoy your furniture...
