Keep Bookends from Sliding: simple fix

In honor of tackling my new year's resolutions head-on, I decided it's time to jump on all those,"I've been meaning to fix that"  projects and get to it!

If I had a quarter for every time this cheap metal bookend slid. Yes, I'd be dining with Beyonce'.

Do you have sliding bookends of your own that need a little help doing their job?

How to fix slipping bookends

Supplies:
(*Amazon Affiliate links included)

• Bookend (obviously) ;)
• Adhesive Spray
• Non-skid drawer or shelf liner
• Scissors

How-to:

Lay the rubber shelf liner over the bottom of the bookend, trace it and cut it out or just cut as you hold it.

In a well-ventilated area, spray the bottom of the bookend with adhesive spray, and with a steady hand, put the piece of cut rubber shelf liner in place. It will stay put, so one try is all you get!

Since it dries in seconds, your new and improved NON-sliding bookend is ready to use! It work perfectly! It snuggled right up next to my files and didn't budge. Perfect! Problem solved.

I love being able to check something off my list that takes such little time. And so little effort. ha!

On to my next project!
Look out 2013! I'm on a roll!
