Now I am armed with resources of where to look. Curious, what WOULD be better, wire or woven? I just like the look of the old type wire baskets.

I guess I must be brain dead or something but didnt even think of looking there! I did look at eggcartons.com and do really like the ones they have, so at this point will probably order one from that site.
