It sounds at first like a nice thught. i use cork bark myself as decoration. Are you thinking about those 12 inch square cork tiles for making bulletin boards? I can't imagine they would be easy to clean at all. They are just full of itty bitty little holes and will mold if too humid (or someone spills). May also be processed excessivly, possibly exposing your geckoes to some chemicals.
