Decorative Wall Paneling For Your Home

We all have that one room in our homes where the walls are uneven and bumpy. When company comes over we steer clear of that one room. Every time we are out shopping we are looking through wall covering catalogs or asking the professionals questions. We just haven’t found the solution to our dilemma. That is until today.

The solution that can beautify, easy to maintain and can be applied right over the disastrous wall is decorative wall paneling.

Wall history dates back thousands of years ago. Walls have two main purposes. They act as a support for a structure and to divide or enclose an area. Wall paneling is a decorative treatment of walls which consist of thin sheets of different materials that are framed together.

It adds charm and style and brings luxury and sophistication to your living quarters. Decorative wall paneling is versatile, inexpensive and gives just the right look wherever it is placed. It is welcome in every room of the house. it can also be placed on walls below ground level. There are so many choices you will never be at a loss for inspiration.

Decorative wall paneling is available in a variety of finishes, textures and wood grains with distinctive groove patterns. Consumers have a choice of plywood, fiberboard, hardboard or engineered wood. Decorative varieties come in such styles as bead board, finished panels, wood grain, lionite, wainscot, plank panels and project panels.

Bead board panels add visual interest and are a great selection to use as an accent. Finished panels add richness and textures and are available in a variety of patterns and colors. Wood grain is usually oak or cedar and is pre-finished. Lionite is the toughest of decorative wall panels which is baked on and water resistant and has a melamine finish. Wainscot is pre-cut with a double groove pattern and comes in many wood grains. Plank panels are easy to install and can be hung vertically, horizontal, and diagonal or even in a herringbone pattern. Project panels have a dry erase surface. This is perfect for your home office, garage or basement.

There are eco friendly panels made from bamboo pulp which is one of the world’s most reusable resources. This does not have any chemical filler or additives and trees were not harmed in this process.

There is another wall paneling that uses decorative wrapped fabric that reduces noise and reverberation. You can order custom made panels to meet your specific needs.

Most wall panels are specially coated and sealed to resist moisture and water migration that can cause mold. This decorative solution has become a maintenance free solution for our hectic lives. Install it and enjoy it. It’s just that simple!

Whether you hang this to cover up an existing wall, disguising a not so smooth wall or just to add a modern decorative pattern you will be amazed at the finished product. Another perk is that modern materials have also allowed natural light to come in while preventing harmful UV rays to damage the wall paneling.

In today’s factories, decorative wall panels are pre-cut to the correct dimensions. This minimizes the time of labor and installation. They also have easy to follow instructions and use many tools that you have around the house. This project is easily completed over a weekend.

If you decide to cover your entire room or just one wall my advice to you is get started. Make that impressive statement that we all desire. So at your next dinner party the entire house will be on show.

My bathroom has this dark wood paneling in all the walls, I would like to paint them because make the bathroom look dark, so i want a nicer color, what would you recommend me to use to paint my wood paneling wall’s bathroom?
Thanks.

I have a wood paneled wall that frames a door at the end of a a hallway. The wood wall consists of unfinished wood pieces almost like a hardwood floor. How do I paint this wood to make it look like the rest of the walls in the hallway ? Can I cover it with some type of paper and paint the paper so it has the same texture as the drywall ? What about the corner where the wood meets the existing finished drywall – how do you make it looks smooth ?

I have a room that is paneled. We primed and painted it several years ago and now I’d like to put up wall liner and hide the paneling. The paint held well, no chipping although I have a couple of scratches. Do I need to fill in the vertical lines in the paneling before applying the wall liner?

I will be adding decorative aluminum panels. The columns were made with cement in the ground and re-bar then the bricks were laid around the re-bar by an experienced brick layer. Will my fence be sturdy once the aluminum panels are attached?

We just moved into a rental home and every wall is wood paneling! The land lord has said that we can make any improvements we want, but I don’t want to invest too much money in something I can’t take with me when I leave in a few years. Any ideas (maybe with fabric) of how to disguise ugle wood paneling?

I live in a mobile home and I would like to remove the vinyl finish off the wall panels. Is this possible to do without damaging the panels? How?

There is one wall in my basement that me and my sister were planning to decoupage. I’m printing old B movie posters on hard stock paper. Is is possible to just use spray adhesive to stick them on, then decoupage over them? The wall is old paneling, kind of glossy like. Is modge podge what I want to buy?

Thanks!
Hopefully this doesn’t make a difference, but all the pictures will be printed from an ink jet printer…
