Claim:
A method of forming paneled corners, the method comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of first components and a plurality of second components, each of the plurality of first components having a pair of first legs oriented relative to one another at an angle forming an exterior angle of greater than 180 degrees and joined along a lengthwise seam, and each of the plurality of first components having a first connector protruding from adjacent the lengthwise seam and on the exterior side of each of the plurality of first components and equally dividing the exterior angle, each of the plurality of second components having a pair of second legs oriented relative to one another at the same angle and forming an interior angle of less than 180 degrees and joined along a lengthwise seam, and each of the plurality of second components having a second connector protruding from adjacent the lengthwise seam and on the interior side of each of the plurality of second components and equally dividing the interior angle; choosing a structure having both an outside corner and an inside corner to receive a plurality of panels; choosing the outside corner of the structure; selecting one of the plurality of first components; placing the one of the plurality of first components over the outside corner; securing the one of the plurality of first components to the outside corner; placing two panels adjacent the structure with a panel edge of each panel on a respective one of the first legs; selecting one of the plurality of second components; pushing the one of the plurality of second components onto the selected one of the plurality of first components to engage their respective second and first connectors, thereby capturing the respective panel edges of the two panels between the corresponding first and second legs; choosing the inside corner of the structure; selecting another of the plurality of second components; placing the another of the plurality of second components over the inside corner; securing the another of the plurality of second components to the inside corner; placing two panels adjacent the structure with a panel edge of each on a respective one of the second legs; selecting another of the plurality of first components having a first connector; pushing the another of the plurality of first components onto the selected another of the plurality of second components to engage their respective first and second connectors, thereby capturing the respective panel edges of the two panels between the second and first legs.
