Bumpers to stick to underside of glass tops

So, we have some nice new bedroom furniture and I've had some glass tops cut to size to protect the furniture top surfaces.
Can anyone recommend what and where I can get some clear bumper type things?(not sure what they are called)
I've seen some double sided sticky dots but I don't want them to stick to the furniture just the glass underside. I know you can get the bumpers to stick to the inside of kitchen door cabinets but was looking for something a bit flatter or lower profile so they don't show up too much when in place.
Many thanks for any replies.

We got felt pads to protect our wood flooring from the furniture - but I don't see why they wouldn't work for you.
We got them from Homebase - they come in different shapes/sizes, and are only sticky on one side. And being felt, you can cut them to size.No longer a spouse, or trailing, but MSE won't allow me to change my username...0 -

Thanks, only thing with felt is I think the glass may slip around, but worth considering.trailingspouse wrote: »We got felt pads to protect our wood flooring from the furniture - but I don't see why they wouldn't work for you.

Thanks Ruski. I did think of those, but wondered whether there are any that are slightly 'flatter' if that makes any sense but at least I can give these a try if I can't find anything else. Thanks again.0 -

I've used these for the exact same purpose. They are slightly larger than most bumpers (about 18mm across) but their height is only about 2-3mm.0 -

Brilliant thanks so much that looks just the job. Do you by any chance know if they are in Wilko stores or are they only online?

If the glass is to protect the furniture top surfaces, and the bumpers are to protect the glass, what will you use to protect the bumpers?0

the glass protects the bumpers - they are really used as little stand-offs, under the glass.0
