Think twice about this. I have highly textured plaster walls at my mom's 1926 house. They get dusty quickly and are a pain to clean. If you want to do a light texture, here is how!

Really hard to repair fix any damage to these type of walls to get it to match up we have them in our house also hard to keep clean
Unless the plaster is very deeply textured, this type of wall is easily vacuumed with brush attachment and washes easily with soft cloth, but of course dust in the Eastern part of the U.S. may be substantially less that that in other parts of the country.
