The proper way to do it and have it be removable is to glue it on to 1/4" plywood and mount the plywood to the wall.

Use contact cement with a special glue roller (it fits on a paint roller). Glue up the plywood and a little on the lauhala and let dry.

The plywood can be mounted with 4 screws instead of dozens of staples and the only impact it will have on your wall will be screw holes which can be filled later.

Give it a try.
