where can I buy a big roll of paper?

[mololoko]

sounds stupid but I don't know what to google for...

I want a big roll of cheap low quality paper to cover the table/floor for painting etc.

My mum reckons she used butchers paper but I'm not really getting anywhere with that. The rolls that go on easels aren't wide enough.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Ikea do exactly this sort of thing. Can you get to one?

here

otherwise the back of old wallpaper, possibly get some on freecycle?

thank you - I'll check out the IKEA one. I like the wallpaper idea too, I used to LOVE wallpaper sample books when I was little.

go to a D.I.Y store and get a roll of linning papaer about £2 a roll we often do this for the kids to doodle on.

to cover the floor use a cheap shower curtain and I agree with lining paper too

How about dustcovers? The sort builders and decorators use to protect furniture from dust.

Can buy from B&Q and other DIY shops.

i use lining paper.
