Cool thanks (I edited the post above as didn't want to go 'off-topic' but asked same question in DIY section)...aah cardboard chic, there is nothing like it I will be on the hunt for some asap
Have you considered cheap vinyl floor tiles? A member used these a while ago to cover a wire shelf and I think they managed to get a few as free samples from a flooring shop. They are wipe clean and wouldnt be too tricky to cut to size with a craft knife either.
