Well actually in The Soviet Union people put carpets on the walls because the walls were so thin you can listen to everything going on with your neighbors, so the carpet kinda blocked the sounds
Nah, I used to live in a Ukrainian village and we had carpets on the walls (and floors).

Damn she is so hot
#The lack of gravity in video game hair had me wondering if she’s laid down or standing
Really tied the room together 😁
Every family have carpets on their living room walls, I guess this was stylish and also sign of family wealth
