Protecting Deck

Hi all . I have very recently finished my deck and are ready to fill it up with BBQ , Outdoor setting pot plants etc,etc . The deck had two or three coats of Cabot's oil prior to laying and two more mopped on after completion.

Question is what do I do to protect the deck from table chairs ,pot plants etc . I use felt stick on's inside the house to protect the timber floors ,but the deck furniture is outside and will get wet and felt I think will not last 5 minutes ... (Pictures of deck are a seperate post's under Amateur deck pictures ) thanks all
