Door Patch

Calipainter

I have a living room to paint with a door that was filled in. The walls are plaster, they framed in the door and hung a sheet of drywall on it.
I was thinking to run some self adhesive mesh around the door, skim the drywall, sand, then try my hand at hand texturing. Any thoughts?

why do you want to texture the wall - is it textured already?

if you texture a wall it looks like you are trying to hide something. I would just tape and mud the seam. if the drywall is not flush with the existing wall you might have to re-install the drywall using firing strips but its better than a texture.
