DIY Acoustic Paneling noob needing help

Hey everyone, I'm fairly new to recording. My budget is practically none and I'm attempting to record out of my room and my friend's basement. What are my options for cheap DIY paneling? And what kind of things do I need to consider when placing it?

The link JWL is great and just to add here is a bunch of videos that will help you with not only placement but also understanding room acoustics itself.
