staple (with a power stapler) a piece of thin wood abut 2 inches wide to the top back edge of the rug. Put hook into the top edge of the wood to fit onto a screw in the wall. If larger rug need mulitiple hooks and screws across the top of the rug.
If it is a heavy rug, you will want to support it on all sides. Construct a wood frame (1X2s on edge), then attach all four sides to the edges of the frame.
