# SILICONE STICKIES… They don’t work! I need some good ideas to keep my…

_Posted by Lynda on 2024-05-29_

SILICONE STICKIES… They don’t work! I need some good ideas to keep my plant vases from scratching my counters and table tops. I have tried little felt tabs and as I already mentioned, the little silicone tabs, but I’ll nothing seems to stay stuck to the bottom of my pots! Does anyone have a great idea to help me with this problem? TXS.

You are right.. the silicone type does not work well. Cork saucers could work. Or for heavier plants you could try cork risers/pot feet. They don’t stick but they keep the pots off the surfaces. I have seen the self adhesive type risers with rubber or foam pot feet but I prefer the natural look of cork.  
There are some quality adhesive furniture felt pads off of Amazon. You’d need to cut it to size but it’s a good investment for multi use around the house.

What happens when cork gets wet? I have these pots in and out of the sink so the pot bottoms are frequently wet. Ideally, I’d like to put cork bits on the bottom of the pot. TXS for your info.

Hmmm… I will check out cork risers! They sound kind of cute. TXS for the info.😊💚🪴

Hot glue some material to the bottom? Then you get to have fun with a glue gun 😂

Right on! Me and glue guns don’t always get along, Don’t get me wrong, they really are great! But, after burning myself, getting strings of glue everywhere, and mishaps in general, I think it must be a pervert, who invented glue guns! TXS kindly for that info.

I like using alien tape. It seems to hold well.

#### Lynda replied on 2024-05-29

Sounds out of this world! But I’ll check out Amazon and see exactly what “alien” is! TXS for that info. 😊💚🪴

Felt and heavy duty glue like E6000.
