    The dollar stores have felt pads that stick to the bottoms of chair legs, they stick pretty well too. Also they have the pad material you can cut to size.

    Try the rubber feet that slip over the ends. It would be like the bottom of a cane. These feet are sold in various sizes, but you may need to remove a part of your existing feet - depending on construction. Another option is to buy the stick-on felt pads to the existing bottom. These are all sold in the same section of the store.

    We use felt pads, but they always seen to come off even though they are really sticky. I dab a bit of glue on to help them last.

    There are few ways to go on this. First off are the legs round or squared?

    Rounded use the rubber caps. They are metal so they may cut through the rubber and need to be replaced often.

    If the are squared, try screwing on wheels. They won't mark up the floor.
