We have used Amy Howard paint for our Airstream makeover! The theme is to bring the outdoors indoors and the colors are simply amazing and the smell is wonderful, too.

I’ve used Amy Howard’s gel stain in English Walnut several times now! It has a rich color that works very well for a medium-dark color. So easy to use, and it holds up excellently. I highly recommend this product.

I found this 80 year-old hope chest at an estate sale, my DIL has been looking for one for a while. It had major water damage on the bottom, it all had to be pulled off and remade. Once that was done, I aged it with nails, chain and hammer effects. My DIL chose the Chambourg color and my goodness, it is a stunning color!! We finished it woth the glazed over and she is over the moon about her new hope chest!! Thanks again for such amazing products, this is my 3rd refinish project using your pr...

I’d give this 10 stars if I could!! The simplest product out there to use. Game changer for sure! It’s like a box of chocolates because you never know what you’ll get when applied to different types of raw wood. ☺️

Love this product! Not sure I could use it on a large piece of furniture to flip and make a profit, but it works beautifully on small and large lamps, figurines, entry tables, and small side tables. Great product!

Second time using Amy Howard paint. It is an awesome product. It has a wonderful silky texture which makes it so easy to work with! And I love the scent. Which lingers quite awhile and makes the room smell so good! I definitely recommend this paint. And the color palette is amazing!

undefined review of 2.0″ Round Hog Hair Paint Brush image 1 out of 2+1
Debbie S.
Yeah, y’all…this brush is it. Perfect for Painting larger surfaces that you want smooth and nicely fills in pieces that have carved hard to fill detail. Cleans well and all around a great brush. After you wash this brush, Be sure to shake out any excess water that gets trapped inside the red plastic attachment. I flip a lot of furniture and skimping on your tools, paint, and finishes is not the way to go. This brush is an investment. 👍

I am painting an old twin bed with the One Step paint & am amazed at how well it does. No sanding or any other prep work. And it dries super smooth! This is the way to redo furniture for an inexperienced DIYer like me.

I had this old dresser that I was about to toss and decided to paint it and put on new drawer pulls. I'm so glad I did. This paint is very easy to work with and coated perfectly.

Erin F.
I was really impressed with this paint. Took a smelly China hutch and transformed it in 2 days. Wiped everything down once with Clean Slate, and then painted two coats. I found this paint to be easy to work with and it has a beautiful texture and not unpleasant smell. Very happy. Just need to add some lower knobs and I’m done!

I was a little nervous to try this paint as a 1-step process. It was great! I forgot to buy the furniture cleaner, so I wiped it down before painting. It truly was a 1 cost process with zero issues. I bought new hardware and completely transformed an old dresser for under $60. I did but the paint swatch booklet for future projects, too.

I used Barn Board white, one-step paint to re-paint and update the bodies of our tired looking nightstands. They look fantastic! Fresh and new! The top and drawers I painted with one-step Weybridge classic paint- another Amy Howard paint.

I lived the speed and efficiency of this paint! I was able to clean the dresser and apply 2 coats within a half day! The color is a deep velvety matte that looks gorgeous! I’m so pleased with this product! And I still have 1/2 a can of paint so I’m painting a bookshelf next!

This brush is made so well that I didn’t even tape the glass for this project. The brush made a beautiful line of gel stain on the edge of the inserts and NO bristle breakages. Worth every penny!

I wanted to repaint an old console table to give it a beachy feel. I found the Amy Howard paint while looking at furniture flips online. The color selection was great and the product came quickly. I used a small foam roller and did two coats and a third on top. I actually sanded first even though it said you didn't need to. The finish is what I envisioned, the color seems slightly lighter than I was expecting but I like it just as much. I'm very happy with the end result and I will order again...

Janette H.
Most beautiful shade. . . Have used Amy Howard's one-step paint for many years, from my wedding to my garden and into my home. One of my favorite things I love about the one-step paint is the smell . . . It reminds me of baby oil. Not joking, so nice to not deal with the toxic smell you usually get with paints. Sometimes I do projects in my home so that makes it very nice. Just moved to Tennessee and love all of her product and want a tour of where all this great stuff started! 1# Fan JHall

This pink is the perfect “Barbie” pink. I searched every paint store to find one and could not find anything remotely close! The paint is very forgiving and smells great! The one 32oz can got me through two coats on our Barbie box! I will be purchasing this paint for all my painting needs.

The cracked gesso is perfect for getting that hint of white showing through and a touch of texture beneath a milk painted surface that is worn. Adds a touch of old world charm and patina all in one product when used in combination with the Toscana Milk Paint line and Antiquing Glaze. Easy to mix, apply, and distress as desired.

I fell in love with this product as soon as I opened the pot, the fragrance is spectacular and the consistency and how it works on the surface, I am almost finishing a project that I proposed on a wall in my house combining Gesso, milk paint, antique glaze and of course Gel Stein and I really like the result, thank you Amy for such excellent products!

Stacy T.
This was just one of my pieces of bedroom furniture that I repainted with the Amy Howard one step paint. It went on very smooth, very low odor, and I got it done in a couple of hours. I also put a coat of Mind Your Own Beeswax on the top of the dresser, and on the front of the drawers for a smooth battery finish.

First time trying the One Step Paint. I used it as the base for the milk paint which was also a first. This frame and picture was $2 at a ReStore (cheap plastic). I plan to tone down the border a little bit and add a little gold leaf for highlights. The paint is really smooth and has great coverage. Thanks for a great product!

Lori D.
I fell in love with Amy Howard products. I have never used them before and I was building beds and decided to give them a try. And then everywhere I looked I saw other items that needed the dust of ages and wax. In a moment I had picture frames, some too new looking and some 1800’s poorly refinished frames, that went from, as Amy says “garish “, to fabulous; so rich and beautiful looking ! I have a lifetime of painting experience. These products take it to an amazing new level. Thank you!!

Love how easy this paint was to use (I used the Cartouche Green). Both my curio and bookcase were that glossy dark wood color. This went on easy and beautifully. I ordered more paint and am planning to paint my 30+ year old guest bedroom furniture to give it an update as well. Definitely recommend this paint to anyone!

My wife bought Blenko hourglass made in the 1970’s. Some had painted over the original green with latex paint. When originally made they were painted with chalk paint and highlighted with wax. I used your one step paint, light and dark waxes to bring the piece back to its original beauty. The final touch was adding the guiding wax to make the spindles pop. All were awesome products. Glad I watched your videos too. It made the project so much easier.

Mary R.
I love this paint. There is very little prep. It covers any thing. I have even painted my metal diswasher with it. For this project I wanted the hallway doors to match my new kitchen cabinets that are a shade of taupe. This Spa White was the closest I could come. To break up the white I dipped pine branches in black, and then used the deluted paint with water and glaze to add the white wash effect. I used the Not Your Beeswax for a final seal. Looks great!

Love the matte sealer. I use it for all projects that I don’t wax. It shows the beauty of the furniture without making a glossy look, which can show more flaws in old pieces. LOVE IT.

This was my first project and I was nervous painting a dark piece of furniture. I used the One Hour Miracle Paint (Rugo) and the paint went on so smooth and the color is beautiful. I’m not done with this project yet I want to hide the TV with a Shade, or tapestry and still pondering what to do. Love the paint and the paint colors we have to choose from.

We have looked for awhile to find something that would elevate the shelf to be more like the Nativity cross stitch above it. Your wax did just that! Thanks for having such a great product, so easy to use as well.

I have been asked to review my purchase. This review may be too long for most people. I am trying to resurface an old picnic tabletop. About 10 years ago, I put old 5/8” plywood highway signs on an outside 2x8 picnic table toptop. The old 5/8” plywood signs have held up well, but were ugly. I decided to make four, approximately 8”x8”, 5/8” plywood test pieces to try different color combinations on and to see if I could make something I like. I bought several different colors of acrylic paint in...

My husband had started refinishing this quilt rack. He'd sanded it down and tried to stain it. The stain soaked totally in and wouldn't wipe off. The Amy Howard Chalk paint covered it in one coat. Looks fantastic!!

This paint transformed my table and chairs. Glides on smoothly and the finish is beautiful. No harsh smell. Literally smells like cake. Will buy from the company/brand again. Highly recommend.

undefined review of Brooks Grey - One Step Paint image 1 out of 2+1
Sereina D.
I used my grandmothers old buffet from the 50's. I primed it with Clean Slate, used two Coats of Brooks Grey and then one coat of the beeswax. I was shocked how powerful the beeswax smelled! But it leaves a beautiful sheen. I learned a lot on my first one! Next time I would definitely use a 4" roller on the top part of the furniture. It would have been smoother. Although the paint does dry to hide the streaks. I was going to replace my pulls but they just don't make that size anymore- and that w...
