I have a lion rug that measures 8 ft by 11 ft that is going up on a 19 ft high wall in the living room. Question, would you hang it at an angle? straight? head up? head down? head to the side?
It has good hooks sewn into the backing so it should hang nice and tight...

Looking for advice before I start making a bunch of holes in the wall.

Thanks in advance!

That all depends what you like. What I did when I placed my mounts and rug on the wall was to just lay them on the floor and then backed off and got up on a step ladder. This gives you an idea of what they will look like when you hang them up. Just move them around until you get what YOU like.

Head up and right.

Depends on the type of wall and ceiling angle. If wood angled then up and right might be best. What is the background?

Modern Fireplace in the middle, taupe painted sheet rock wall, high flat ceiling...

Thanks for the ideas.

We need pictures bro!! lol
