I need furniture leg tips for outdoor wicker plant stands.
Any suggestion on where to get them or other alternatives that can withstand heat and water.

3po3 on Aug 13, 2012Thanks for the clarification and photo. Now I am on the same page with you. I just did an Amazon search and I have to assume that if Amazon doesn't sell it, it may not exist. It's not the most elegant idea, but you could use the old tennis ball trick a la seniors' walkers.Helpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Aug 14, 2012Why not purchase some 2 inch PVC pipe and glue on caps. Cut them a few inches long, Glue the caps on. Drill a hole on the end of the cap to allow for water to drain out if the wicker is left outside. Paint them brass or what ever color you like and push them on. A little glue perhaps or a small nail pushed through a pre-drilled hole to hold them in place. You could also wrap the PVC with hemp rope and glue to mimic the wicker and paint to match.Helpful Reply
