Sharp furniture edges can be extremely dangerous and essentially invisible. Most tables have sharp corners to form rectangles or squares, and we don’t usually think twice about it. The problem is, when you have small children running around, it’s easy to get hurt. The sharp corners are in the perfect position to poke the eye of a little one or an adults hip at a moments notice. Sometimes it’s like they come out of nowhere, I swear. However, there are some simple steps you can take like sanding down the corners and refinishing the stain, adding rubber corners, or buying furniture with rounded edges.
