Planning ahead for all of your family is not an easy task when it comes to the holiday season. Who is bringing the food? Do we have enough chairs? Who is coming?

My big question is always, how do I protect my furniture?

Most guests are less likely to care for your furniture like you would. You will want to use tablecloths, coasters and floor glides.

1. Tablecloths will keep your table from scratching when someone drags a bowl of stuffing across your table.

2. Coasters under sweaty glasses will keep the condensation off of your furniture and avoid water marks.

3. Floor glides on your chairs will help the chair last longer and protect your floor.

If you follow these three rules, you will avoid the most common means of destruction during the Holidays.
