Woodchip effect Textured Roller?

[stevec59]

Hi,
We're buying a bungalow that has woodchip throughout, all the internals walls are solid, we're having a cooker switch put in and as we want the cable buried, they will need to chase out a hole in the wall to put conduit and cable, once that's dome I was thinking about just plastering over and trying to get woodchip effect roller so that it blends in.
I guess the outer option would be to get a small amount of woodchip wall paper and put that over the plaster.
Does a woodchip effect Textured roller exist? Or am I better off just getting matching woodchip paper and using that?

Many Thanks,

Steve

just get a roll of woodchip paper," its cheaper than chips "

If its for repair patches tear the edges rather than use scissors to cut straight edges, the paper will blend in better ,once its painted. .

Thanks for that,if I do as you say am I better off really soaking the wood hip wallpaper that I've torn rather than cut? What I'm thinking is that if I really soak it, it might blend in with the existing paper

Just splice in a piece of wood chip over where you've plastered.

Thanks, I've heard of that before but no tried it,so if the strip I want to cover is say 1 inch, cover with 2 inches and then cut through say 1 1/2 inches of bothe new an old, Is that what you mean?

Thanks
