Hi, I have hung a full size carpet on my wall because I really loved it. I cut a piece of wood the width of the top of the carpet and I attached the wood into the beams of my sheetrock wall. I then got a few people to hold up the carpet while I used my compressor stapler with industrail staple and attached the carpet to the wood. After we had already done this, we thought a better idea would be to get 2 pieces of wood one attached to the wall and the second is used to grip the carpet between the two pieces of wood and you nail the two pieces together. Or here are other ideas

Hi there, Rug should be hang with width 8' going across room, but if you want to hang it the other way because the wall is narrow, that's ok too. It's a matter of does it look right!! A Rug is meant to be seen from all angles!
If the rug cannot be folded over a support board at the top, I would have a strong piece of burlap sewn to the top edge. Then let the burlap fold over a support board. Attach it lying on the floor so you're sure it's straight.
Then securely mount the board to each stud in the wall. A rug that size must be quite heavy.
