Hello, When I am laminating the faces of the shelves, top and bottom, I buy Formica in a roll. I roll it out to the appropriate size with an inch on all sides extra, Then I use a spray adhesive (outside because it smells). I turn it over and do the next and then leave them stacked so they go flat all the way.
For the sides, I use "EDGE BANDING" which looks like this

This stuff is laid out and ironed on, IT is made with an adhesive that works like magic on the wood. Don't forget to buy the edge cutting tool to trim the excess off if your going to use this. I have heard a lot of people tell me they use a sharp utility knife but I have not had good luck with that.
