We had tiled our alfresco in some really nice tiles 300x300 and we had nearly a whole pack left over. So I didn't want them to go to waste and hubby wanted to keep them for"just in case". So I grabbed some felt feet (flat ones) that I have been using for decorator pieces that I feel might scratch furniture......tables, buffets etc and put them on the bottom of my tiles and I use them as my placemats for our alfresco table. Washable and they don't fade (like my expensive wood ones did when i left them out there one sunny day) and when hubby cooks charcoal steak your plate doesn't move around trying to cut it. Its not everyones taste but its simple and effective.... Re: An idea for left over floor tiles................ 2Sep 01, 2008 9:51 am Nice idea!!!
