How to Make the Sofa Stay on a Wooden Surface
A sliding sofa creates a hazard in a living room. If the sofa moves too easily, a small child can become trapped or injured by the sudden movement. This movement usually is caused by placing a sofa with felt-tipped feet over a hardwood floor. Having felt under the feet prevents the movement of the sofa from scratching the floor, but it shouldn't be used on a sofa that you don't want to move. Fixing this problem is fast. Does this Spark an idea?
