Are you thinking about tying moss to it or something?
You can get Plastic Canvas stuff at a crafts store, or use window screen (I'd get the course stuff) from Ace/HD/Lowe's.

You are welcome. I just simply remembered that coleallensmom used hairnets to scape her moss in a rock. 
and it looks great when it grows out...I did the same technique but using a brand new ladies pantyhose..LOL. It works great as well...so I guess it depends on the creativeness for less money.

As Daileene mentioned, I've used Hairnets to keep java moss in place. Depends on what you are looking to do, but they work GREAT if you are just wanting to tie the moss to something and I usually only have to pay a $1 or so at the dollar store for a 2pack.
