How to Texture a Wall (7 options) Do It Yourself

[@stargazer0480]

So informative without talking crap between, you actually talked about what you're doing and how.

[@NoMusicalTalentTX]

Thanks so much for the video! I loved it! I wish all the DIY content creators made their videos the way you did. No extended open, no three minute dissertation that adds nothing to the video. Yours was just a lot of good advice, succinct, and well done. Again, thank you!

[@stephen4763]

Yes. Bravo. Quick - to the point v

[@lolafalana6960]

💯

[@hchayes9431]

Great video on texturizing house walls. We had a handyman type ruin our kitchen walls with plaster and then oversanding areas down to the metal....It going to cost us ADDITIONAL money and LOSS time now to fix it. Our kitchen walls were pristine....until he ruined them.

[@anthonymoehlig170]

great video. no BS just an informative video. Well done

[@seaspiritinme]

That's amazing! So simple. I like the Sand and Fine textures.

[@BenJohnson-os4ve]

Excellent video. Very well done and very well explained. Thanks.

[@babykakes6353]

The monterrey look is what I’m trying to achieve for my wall. You made it Iook so easy. I’ll give it a go though . Thanks

[@casualbillionaire]

I get that fancy "monterey" look just taping my seams lol.

[@bernadettecamacho8451]

got walls unfinished, I was feeling so overwhelmed $$$ - BUT then I found your channel! Thank you so much!

[@raywood8187]

I'm dealing with old plaster and a lot of patchworking so this should cover a lot of the adequate but not so perfect fixes I did. I like the knockdown drag out look, even if that does sound like a battle royale!

[@emmanuelleallen]

It's just called knockdown lol. But if you're trying to cover up some ugly plaster, you could just skim the whole wall with a large blade and regular drywall mud, and then sand down the highspots

[@sheilabrooks4848]

Thank you so much for taking the time to demonstrate all the different textures for walls. Very helpful video

[@dennissisneros1012]

THANK YOU! I like your video out of all I've watched. I feel I am ready to retexture my bathroom!

[@osirisjimenez5753]

Great video, simple & to the point! I personally ❤️ the Monterrey look. Thank you 😊

[@blue_frost0356]

I like the knock down look because when its painted with semi gloss paint it look elegant. Textured walls looks good but it depends whats your decor. If your decor is boring modern flat smooth walls are good for you. Texture walls is nice if your house has arches in it.

[@Elizabeth-cc4dz]

I agree. And sometimes it just simply more practical. Texture hides bumps and bruises if the home has children or pets

[@missdaisysunshine8633]

Could you please post links for the products in the post?

[@saraloomis2901]

So comprehensive. Told me all I needed to know and gave me some ideas I hadn't considered.

[@TheVishwarup]

Wonderful video. We live in France (but not yet totally French speaking :) ) and we had some electrical work on our walls wherein the the electrician had to take some ridges and fill it with plaster which made some parts of the textured wall flat. I had no clue until I saw this video how its done. Let me try.

[@jesusramirez000]

Love 💕 the video hands on right the first minute and just like the other comments not 3 minute video and talk and talk and talk

[@LukieLibra]

I’m soo glad this video was made!!

[@nadiakillen2761]

Thank you so much! new DIY here and searching all tips and great videos. 😍

[@jerrypatrick1047]

Thank you for this video, im in the process of doing some of my walls.

[@nadine91]

Liked your video. You didn't mention how messy these procures are and how floors and so on should be masked off. Also there are spray cans of texture available at the big box stores. Expensive, but if it's a small area, might be worth it. Also Wagner makes an texture gun that doesn't require a air compressor and hopper. It retails under $100, and can be used over and over. Well I could go on, but my last comment is most drywall people charge $1 a square foot to repair, patch, texture a wall or ceiling. They do the cleanup. This might be a better alternative...

[@gautamkhandelwal9408]

Very informative video and you have explained it in a very nice way, I got my answer and BTW, you look beautiful in this video.

[@truckinnstuff5271]

This was the best video. Thank you!

[@nafitron]

Love this! I'm glad you gave so many samples -- helps to give ideas for what we might want.

[@blancavillanueva9476]

So it's dry wall mix with water to create texture?

[@nanicasillas6492]

​@@blancavillanueva9476yes basically but this lady is doing it wrong and ugly

[@chestergal90403]

Appreciate this how to. Thanks!!!

[@juliehammon3677]

Perfect video to see the look AND exactly how to apply

[@marklanham391]

This video is very informative, I wish ‘somehow’ it was in other colors, for me, the tan color was difficult to see, but great job!

[@johnsonii1117]

Awesome job, thank you very much. 😊

[@SR-pb6kq]

Thank you. Short and informative

[@billybigg]

Thank you so much you just saved me...bless you and your video

[@margerykirner5604]

This was very interesting! I often wonder how they make all these textures thank you

[@MMAO-ky7bj]

Thank you 🙏. Much appreciated for sharing your experience!

[@madcitydan6082]

We have different opinions on "smooth and subtle" 0:56

[@RodeoCowgirl-55]

👍👍👍👍👍 just what I need as I was doing the hard hard way. Thank you.

[@Perlita-rq1hg]

Muchas gracias por este video.

[@brinkman4925]

You're killing it! Thanks

[@kimberlygries6517]

So helpful! Thank you

[@athomewithjojo7786]

When she says "smooth texture" producg, is that just drywall compound or something specific? Thanks!

[@marksproesser2720]

I love her style. I think I will give my walls a try. Can I contact you incase I run into some quicksand? thanks

[@gurpreetrai3755]

Very nice 👍

[@jayparker7518]

Which pre-mixed joint compound should I use ?

[@subguy3020]

Thank you for that demonstration! However, the texture that I am trying to do was not one of the seven. The texture looks sort of like bubbles, and I didn't see any of the finished projects that look like that. Bubbles may not be quite accurate, but I can't think of another way to describe it. I wish I had the option of posting a picture.

[@JackiePitalo]

Where do you purchase compound mix with sand?

[@jerrimclaughlin8432]

thanks for the different ways of textures that you have shone us.

[@deffy750]

Awesome video thank you 👍

[@retterdett]

What's the brand of the sand texture mud? Not having any luck googling it.

[@123verona1]

My question too!

[@JosephBoley-ef8ib]

Do all these have sand and water added or just the drywall mud? The second one with the textures ruler looked thicker than the first stuff

[@mikshmt91]

Where I live if you wait 15 minutes the drywall texture would be completely dry and you would not be able to knock it down

[@gutsandgrittv5076]

I watched until the end for you to tell us what was in the buckets but you didn't :'( Is it joint compound or plaster or?

[@fred4925]

A bought a box of the dry powder wall texture from home depot (not the premixed stuff), and I'm wanting to do the monterey finish. Any idea what the ratio of water to mix should be?

[@raghuy1]

Thank you for the video

[@audreypaese]

Can we see what brands are used?

[@malikShoaib-fj6fj]

I saw online, some people add silica sand directly into their exterior wall paint can and it is ready to use on the walls after stirring it up really well so the sand does not settle at the bottom. Is it a good idea to do that I mean if I want to give texture to fiber cement walls should I just add some white silica sand directly into the paint and use it and that is it?

[@desibulls8600]

How nice you awr.....❤

[@FixItYerself]

looks much better than My Old House !

[@Exploer8591]

What type of roller did you use on the sand finish?

[@surig3846]

Thank you for this! I live in a pre-war with horrible walls. Layers of patches of paint jobs are visible. Texturing will hides these. How does a high-gloss paint finish look on a textured wall?

[@rhansen1969]

Great video!

[@michaelmatallana5845]

If I want the rough texture, do I buy the sand 2 gallon or the smooth 2 gallon

[@meagankeyser5446]

Is the stuff in the bucket just mud?

[@AOD-tr7nd]

You can buy spray cans for knockdown texture at lowes and home depot

[@5questcy1]

Very expensive

I loved your video, and I love smooth walls with no texture!

[@poodee9395]

Huge thank you for posting this.

[@dannylewis519]

What type of roller to use for the sand texture?

[@relative_vie]

What is that material called?

[@lisarollins3960]

I love textured walls. So elegant and makes a home look expensive. I hate sheet rock and just painting it is dull and boring. Texturizing or wall paper is the way to go. IMO

[@123verona1]

What was the compound she's using?

[@tazmandeux9848]

Excellent video... thumbs up on production values and content. You made it very easy to update our home.

[@iqworks2961]

Hello ma’am I really enjoyed watching your vid please I would like you to learn me more on you creative idea thank you

[@tenneillechapman9192]

What is the product used please?

[@tammycole7171]

Can you add these textures over painted walls?

[@nadine91]

Yes. Sand lightly with 100 grit sandpaper. This helps the new paint grip or adhere to the wall..

[@jflowers090]

Is it just me or did the sand texture loomed smoother than the smooth texture?

[@CaliforniaLifeJourneys]

Exactly. I was confused too

[@justinmilla]

Has anyone actually seen crows foot? not only does it look terrible but seems like a serious pain to install

[@debbierains3169]

Can this be done over paneling? I really like the Monterey too.

[@jerrold3685]

No, even if you fill the seams, it will Crack out.

[@thek4232]

These textures were very stylish! Up until 30 years ago... Lol

[@brandib264]

😆

[@NickieTu]

Best comment! 😄

[@cm1642]

This looks like exterior texture to me. Too rough for inside walls.

[@melvynvandervoort5973]

Gracias por compartir 🙏

[@itschriscash]

what is this video, 480p?

[@Lovely655Girl]

I hate texted walls. However, I am Herr because I made a hole in the wall so thanks for the upload.

[@blondiesloftcatzdivirgilio6016]

can this be used on the exterior?

[@blue_frost0356]

Depends on material

[@oodles86]

Is one of those styles also known as orange peel?

[@frankmaggio4328]

no orange peel?

[@luvu2323]

I'm going for the Santa Fe.

[@brandib264]

Monteray???

[@targetedfordeath359]

What is DRYWALL ?

[@nat.serrano]

Why do we need a texture to begin with?

[@johnpaulcappa8081]

Not bad; but it’s hard to see the texture at the end. It all looks white, but at the end I cud finally see the splatter and drag one

[@dinaelsherbiny1727]

Can I mix smooth texture with paint before applying ?

[@rico-suave9078]

Yes there is no paint on the drywall that she is applying it too.

[@billprezioso3677]

Not sure I understand your question but if you add paint to any texturing product it is going to change the color of your paint so you would have to apply another coat of paint anywhere

[@billprezioso3677]

Anyway

[@dinaelsherbiny1727]

Thank you 💐😍

[@TheJnetnunez]

It could give an interesting look. Did you try it?

[@bilboyaz5123]

It’s all personal taste personally I like certain textures on walls

[@ThatTexasGuy86]

Lol so this painter I was potentially going to hire sent me this video. Don't know why I told him we have orange peel texture. My only question was is he applying it by a can or with a hopper gun? now I know who not to hire

[@davidwood351]

Close-up views would be nice

[@ceskgalaxycreations2751]

is this from the 80s?

[@bobdees6428]

I’ve had to repair and attempt to match it several times and it looks horrible. It doesn’t add value to your home, in fact it does the opposite.

[@demonross111]

Bosoms out of this world.

[@cantseenothing]

It's called a bosom (singular) and you're sexist!

[@sltfilho]

She talks just like a best friend of Carolyn Burnham, realtor in the American Beauty universe

[@shooth100]

Monteray texture looks like sloppy mudd work.

[@rebeccarodriguez8973]

This video just shows some alternatives instead of the basic smooth surface.

[@sparkinlandry]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@zer0coolninja887]

If thats what 6 inches is oh boy im in trouble

[@JimBroten]

I'm a 45 year taper with thousands of jobs completed, according to my records around 1500 in the last ten years alone, my advice hire a pro, if not you'll pay for it on the resale of your home, it's not easy to get a nice texture, can't tell you how many jobs I've fixed for new home owners that loved the house but not the drywall, could cost you thousands in the long run

[@Apitman7]

Knockdown texture
