Glad to be of help.
Usually when I'm stuck lighting a hotel room I order several source 4 juniors (fixed lens at 50 deg) so I can get plenty of "texture coverage" on my backgrounds. I also use 375w lamps -- which is more than enough intensity -- to avoid blowing breakers.
Necessity being the "mother of invention" I too have very often used black wrap gobos in front of fresnels. By the way, you'll find the texture is "stronger" when you remove the lens.
You should also try cutting various textures out of heavy gauge broiler pans that you've cut to the size of your fixture's color frame. They're easy to carry around and having a variety pre-cut and ready to slide in front of your fixture saves time.
