Decorative wall panel system

Abstract

A wall paneling system is provided in which panels of various widths are pre-fabricated with raised moldings. The panels are thin enough to be easily cut, if necessary, and applied to a wall by an inexperienced installer with adhesive. Various chair rails and baseboards are provided. By providing the panels in different standard widths, they can be easily pieced together to cover walls of any length, thereby enabling an inexperienced installer to easily complete the lower wall paneling of an entire room. Corner moldings are provided to cover any gaps where the panels meet in corners of a room.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A wall panel system comprising pre-finished panels including raised moldings, said panels having a thickness that facilitates their easy cutting and mounting on walls by an adhesive.  
     
     
         2 . The wall paneling system of  claim 1 , further comprising a chair rail and baseboard molding pre-fabricated onto the panel.
