  • Publication number: 20130019410
    Abstract: A protective guard for furniture legs, particularly bed legs, to lessen the impact when a person inadvertently rams a toe or other part of the foot into the furniture leg. A protective guard for furniture legs includes a base on which a furniture leg rests, and a cushion which covers at least a portion of the furniture leg. The base can be circular and the cushion cylindrical, so the base and cushion couple at the bottom of the cushion, giving the protective guard the form of a cup. The device can be made of foam, providing the cushioning aspect and lessening the impact when a toe or other part of the foot strikes a leg of furniture, and protecting the surface on which the furniture rests. The device can be decorative, providing an enhanced visual appeal to a wheel of a bed frame or other portion of a furniture leg.
