I would try using some blue tape and tape off a line as staight as you can down the corner. If that doesnt work try 5 in 1 (scraper) painters tool and drag it down the corner a few times to score you a nice line to go by.How to paint textured wall corners?
Just tape as close to the corner as you can. Make sure tape is down good. When you begin to paint keep the brush just on the one wall even though other wall is taped, because on really texture walls you won't notice how close your edge is but if you hit the other wall....not good. Ok. Get a good brush too, I like angled.//////
try running a sanding block or a block of wood with heavy grit sandpaper wrapped around it in the corner first. it may give you a sharper corner than you have now. then run a pencil line in the corner to use as a guide. you may not get a perfectly straight line but that's about all you can do. good luck
