Ideas for Rough Decorations to Put on Walls to Soundproof

When turning an existing room into a recreation room, unexpected noises can be emitted from the room that can disturb the rest of the household. Wall decor can help soundproof the room without having the expense associated with actually soundproofing the floors, walls and ceilings. Rough decorations hung on walls will help reduce the amount of noise that can travel from the room.
