Please read the description for more information:

In Generation II, it is possible to customize your room and place decorations. These decorations were meant to be obtained through Mystery Gift, or gifts from Mom if you are saving money with her. 

Glitch decorations exist in the game in Gold/Silver/Crystal as invalid dolls, big dolls, posters or beds, game consoles, and carpets.

In this video we show all kinds of glitch decorations and their side effects. 

Small glitch dolls:

Controlled by address D95E and D95F (left and right corner of table respectively), or GameShark code 01xx5ED9 or 01xx5FD9.

Small NPC sprites, which can include non-Pokémon, Pokémon normally unavailable as dolls, and characters that appear as a mess of pixels. Talking to some of them may freeze the game.
If the value belongs to a big doll then only a corner of the big doll is displayed to make it fit as a small doll.

Game consoles:

Address D95D (01xx5DD9)

Very similar to the small glitch dolls. Characters instead of game consoles may be forced as game consoles, and as before talking to some of them may freeze the game.

Big dolls:

Address D960 (01xx60D9)

These are like glitch dolls but bigger, and there are only three valid glitch dolls in the game (big Lapras, Onix and Snorlax). These however only have the same text "A giant doll! It's fluffy and cuddly.", so there are no glitches in talking to them, but there may be still when attempting to put them away.

Upper right corner and lower left corner:

Addresses D95C (upper right, posters) and D959 (lower left, beds)
Changing these will alter the building blocks for the top-right and lower-left corner of the room.

GameShark code 01xx5CD9 01xx59D9

Glitch carpets:

Address D95A (01xx5AD9)

Carpets. These change some of the building blocks from the top-left corner of the room and near the center.

Room appearance corruption:

Small glitch dolls 0x5D, 0x5E, 0x62, 0x65, 0x84, 0x94, 0x8C, 0x9B, 0x9D, 0xAC, 0xC1, 0xC9, 0xDC and 0xE2 (thanks Glitch City Laboratories' DollDex project https://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php?topic=6202.0v for the data) can corrupt the appearance room permanently even after saving and resetting, until you remove them and may not change tile permissions (meaning you can walk around your room freely). This makes them ideal if you want the aesthetics of a glitchy room.

The effect is also unlike glitch mailbox room corruption (enabled by glitches like glitch Unown 0x84), which would change the available start menu options and can trap you inside your room.
