I just got this 95 X 82 inch tapestry in the mail
What would be an easy way to hang it?
-------------------- December 1960: "They took the drug one evening at Leary's house and had a profound experience, during which Ginsburg prophetically realized that it was a time to start "a peace and love movement". He then ran naked around the house, attempted to get Kruschev and Kennedy on the telephone and announced to the operator that he was God."

I'd just use clear tacks, or some small nails.
Its cloth, you could probably re-hang it a bunch of times and never notice the small holes nails make. It looks like there are some weaved holes at the top, just hang it over the nails with those.

I would set a rod on the wall and loop every loop up top there through it.
More loops distributor the weight and pull much less over time.
YOu see any tapestries like THIS?? >

i usually run wire between two large nails and then mount the tapestry on brass hooks...i dont like putting holes in them.
