You might try nailing some thin wooden furring strips around the edges of the matting where it meets the walls, then trim the excess matting away with a utility knife. Stain the furring strips before you nail them up, then you'll have a nice border around the matting.

I did something similar with the stiff matting that I mounted on the wall behind my bar shelves and it came out looking very nice.
