Patterned paint roller. Ever used one?

Hi Stoker ,

Have to admit that I haven't .
Some on Etsy are so pretty and the reviews look good .
I'd be very tempted .
I think that I might find it hard on my wrists .
I've done a lot of stencilling when it was in fashion .
I still like the designs by Henny Donovan .
I've also sectioned off areas with masking tape to make colour blocks -and it's been really easy plus effective .
And also done free hand artwork .
I think that you might need to do some practice and experimenting with your project .
Wishing you luck .

I have a wood effect one, and used it on my cupboard doors in the kitchen.
It reflects my rather slapdash attempts.

is that a roller for patterned paint ??
sounds like a skilled job.
or do you mean the equivalent of stippling, rag-rolling etc.

Sounds really good , I had never heard of them. I want one now ! ?

Thank you, all, for your replies.
It looks like a normal roller but has additional roller attached with ingrained pattern on.
You use ordinary paint. I read matt is best.
There are tutorials on YouTube.
The patterns look really pretty.
As I said, my walls are magnolia. I’ll
Keep that base colour and use maybe a coffee or soft amber paint for the over pattern.
If it turns out a mess I can just paint over it.

That sounds like a fun experiment with a solid Plan B just in case!
We 'stippled' in a previous house and were pleased with the result. We have found rollers give a better result than brushes.
Good luck!

Stoker48, yes, I've used one with a woodgrain effect - great fun. I've also used a home-made stencil for a kitchen feature wall, also frog tape for divided colours (as picure) or stripes!

These days, due to a dodgy back, my painting skills have declined - so I prefer removeable (but not self-adhesive) wallpaper. It's easy to change when required. I hate magnolia with a vengeance but I do like white.
