About One Step Paint
One Step Paint is our premium, water-based chalk-style paint that transforms furniture, fabric, and everything in between. No stripping, no sanding, no priming. It dries to a soft, chalky matte finish that's perfect for vintage, distressed, layered, and Old World looks. While decorative pieces don't require sealing, we recommend adding a wax or sealer on high-use items like dining tables, chairs, and cabinets to protect against everyday wear.

I mixed maxwell garden and barefoot in the park, and I'm painting my vanity cabinet doors with this color. Its very pretty , a bluish green.
I had so much Fun playing with my products on this piece. I used each of the products including Clean Slate, Glazed Over, Atelier, and Maxwell Garden. I Love how it turned out and the smell is so AWEsome!
It was the exact color of teal I was looking for. I love the coverage and how silky the dry paint feels to the touch. I am so grateful for the zero VOCs as I have a severe asthmatic grandson🙏 I am now experimenting with a bit more distressed look as it’s the exact pop of color I was hoping for, just need it aged.
Love both of these colors! Matched my bathroom perfectly!
I’ve used other top brand chalk paints and I like Amy’s the best. It’s easy to use, doesn’t require a wax seal, distressed easily and smells great. The variety of colors is wonderful! And her brushes are much less expensive than other brands. The variety of waxes and finishes are best as well!
