Rug Hooked Footstool Feet – where to get them

[clear]

Once you begin hooking on your pattern, order the feet for the footstool so you will have them when your hooking is complete. You can find many sources on the internet. A few are listed below. These feet are 4″ in diameter and 6″ tall which will give you a final footstool height of approximately 16″. They come unfinished and attach by simply screwing them into pre-drilled holes.

I stained mine with Minwax Polyshades. It is a stain and Polyurethane in 1 step, providing a durable finishing that protects the wood. I used several coats. The color I used is Bombay Mahogany Gloss #480, a rich dark color that does not detract from the hooking. I also attached a rug label to identify the piece and paired it with a coordinating hooked pillow for a complete look. I could not find an 8 oz. can this time, which is enough for several stools. The smallest I could find was a quart.

You can add a plastic or felt pad on the bottom to protect your floor.

I ordered A0558 CONTEMPORARY BUN FEET with Dowel Screw, 6″ height in paint grade from Adams Wood Products. This is the exact same foot that I’ve used on my previous footstools.
