I have a roll of lauhala I plan to start mounting later this month. I've yet to unroll it to see how irregular it may be. My plan is to carve and torch 3"wide pine boards to act as borders/trim and cover any gaps the irregularities of the matting leave. Even if the mats were straight, like the woven bamboo panels I used outside, I'd still use those trim pieces to hide the seams. Just think of it as an opportunity to add more art/detail to the decor.
