How To Stop Kitchen Chair Pads From Slipping

Chairpads that won't stay in place are an unnecessary annoyance. It is annoying when a chair pad slides to the floor when you stand and can be even more annoying when the pad slips out from under you when you sit. Preventing a chair pad from falling out of place keeps the pads clean and the chair comfortable. You can anchor the pad in place without damaging the pad or the chair.
