Toscana Milk Paint uses an easy one part powder to one part water ratio for a smooth, creamy consistency. Mix with water, strain through gauze to remove any clumps or foam, and your paint is ready to use. Apply with a natural bristle chip brush, working on a horizontal surface for the best results. Use it as-is, thin it for a glazed patina effect, or layer multiple coats for rich, antique depth.
Toscana Milk Paint doesn't require a primer when applying it to raw wood, since it binds naturally. If you'd like to add a tinted base before painting raw wood, our Gel Stain works well for that, though it isn't required for adhesion. However, if you're painting over slick, finished, or previously painted surfaces, you must prime with One Step Paint first to ensure proper adhesion.
Protect and complete your finish with wax or our Matte Sealer, this step is required to seal in your color and protect your piece for everyday use.
For the signature old world finish, start with the right base for your surface, Gel Stain for raw wood, or One Step Paint for slick or previously finished surfaces. Add a layer of Cracked Gesso for that signature cracked, textured look, then apply your first coat of milk paint. From there, layer on Antiquing Glaze, followed by light wax, dark wax, and finally Dust of Ages for rich, dimensional patina. Milk paint is especially beautiful on carved furniture, bergere chairs, and ornate frames, where this layered technique settles into texture and detail.

Pigments from Italy & France
Beginner Friendly
33 Colors
All Natural, Zero VOC
Just five natural ingredients: milk protein, limestone, clay, chalk, and pigment. No VOCs, no harmful solvents, no synthetic fillers, just a simple, water-based formula that's safe to use anywhere in your home.
Our pigments are flown in directly from quarries in Provence, France, real, natural pigments with color variation you simply can't get from synthetic alternatives. That authentic Old World sourcing is what gives Toscana Milk Paint its unmatched depth and vibrancy.
Milk paint shines on pieces with detail, think carved furniture, bergere chairs, ornate frames, and anything where you want the finish to settle into texture and bring out fine craftsmanship. The natural variation of color play beautifully against carved lines and raised detail.
Start with a base coat of gel stain, One Step Paint, or Milk Paint Binder, depending on your surface. Add a layer of Cracked Gesso for that signature cracked, textured look, then apply your first coat of milk paint. From there, layer on Antiquing Glaze, followed by light wax, dark wax, and finally Dust of Ages for rich, dimensional patina.

Yes. While it was originally formulated for raw wood, it works beautifully on ceramic, glass, and metal too. Use One Step Paint as your base coat, or mix in Milk Paint Binder for adhesion, no extra sealing needed.
Start by cleaning your surface thoroughly with Clean Slate to remove any wax, oils, or residue. For raw wood, no priming is needed...just mix, strain, and paint. For finished or slick surfaces, apply One Step Paint or mix in the Toscana Milk Paint Binder with your milk paint before painting.
Unmixed Milk Paint powder stores indefinitely when kept in an airtight, dry container, so you can mix only what you need for each project. Once mixed with water, use it within 1 to 2 weeks, stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Sealing is required for Milk Paint, since the finish is porous by nature. Lock it in with Light Wax, Dark Wax, or the wax of your choice or our Matte Sealer.
A single 12oz pouch of Toscana Milk Paint generally covers approximately 17 to 24 square feet, mixed at the standard 1:1 powder to water ratio. Coverage will vary depending on how thick you mix it and your color choice, lighter colors often need 2 to 3 coats for full opacity, while darker colors may only need 1 to 2.

I haven’t started using the kit yet but can’t wait. The packaging was like receiving a Christmas present where I just kept unearthing all kind of yummy things. I’m just waiting for some uninterrupted time to begin my Milk Paint 101.

I LOVE this Milkpaint kit. First time using milk paint, and it has opened up a new world for me! I love the old world look as I’ve traveled to many European countries and drooled over the beautiful finishes on antiques. I already have so many pieces of furniture and decor I want to use for Amy Howard milk paint!
Kim M. 5/5 Verified
This is a must if you love European finishes!! I’ve been blessed to travel all around Europe and drool over centuries of painted pieces. Amy has created something amazing that I can learn to duplicate those beautiful European antiquities that sell for thousands!! I played around with the different colors in the kit and layered some of them. I’m so excited to start using it on furniture!! Milk Paint is my new favorite way of painting furniture!
Kim M. 5/5
Such an AMAZING experience!! It was like Christmas opening the package when it arrived! You receive everything you need. The video is absolutely the best! Amy is such an awesome teacher!! I would suggest watching the video a few times BEFORE following along because you have to move quickly because of things drying. Thanks sooo much to Amy, Gene, and their entire staff! (A shout out to Ken in Customer Service!). Can’t wait to try some Milk Paint projects!! 😍

Amy Howard Milk paint is delightful fun if you’re like me and like a process that will allow more freedom in the finish. It goes on in layers and and dries light as the dry pigment. Shipped from France, the colors are gorgeous!

Fantastic class! By working virtually side by side with the Howard’s I finally got the confidence to use milk paint. Guess what?!? I LOVE it. Truly a great starting class.
Stacey P. 5/5 Verified
I had such a wonderful time with the 101 Milk Paint Class! I think my daughter and husband were very entertained and impressed by it too. It was a lot of fun! I loved watching the bare wood pieces transform into the different stages of the project. I purchased the trial sized milk paint bundle and look forward to my future projects. Thanks, Amy!!
Sherry K. 5/5 Verified
I loved loved the kit. I only did one board during the class due to technical difficulties I was about 25 minutes late. But finished them up the next day. I thought I did a pretty good job for my first try. Love the colors that came with the kit. I have already ordered the products in the kit and some samples of different color milk paint. I love using the one step paint, but now that I’ve used the milk paint it might be my favorite. I have wanted to use all the products in the kit but didn’t know if I could do it. I look forward to the next class. I wished it came with a PDF file that had all the steps down so you could print it on paper. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Terry A. 5/5 Verified
The kit was just as pictured. Great products from all Amy's lines.
Kris B. 5/5 Verified
Ok this is going to be a little long but here I go. This was the first time using these products. I have been watching 100’s of makeover videos for the past 2 months and I have only seen one person using Amy Howard products and I keep asking why . So when I found this class I thought let’s give it a try and I was very very pleased. One of the things I have noticed is that none of the results look the same. We all took the same class watched the same video and yet the results all came out different. None right or wrong just all different. I really love that because we each did it to fit how we wanted it to look. Sometime with other products they kind of all look the same, basic prime, paint, wax. With these products I have so many options and products to work with I love that. I’m sold on your line of products can’t wait to really get started and see what I can do. By the way I never ever leave a review. But this is a life changer.

I received my kit very quickly and was impressed with the packaging and presentation. Since purchasing the kit, I have received several emails, but not too many, keeping me in contact and informed leading up to the workshop on July 8th. This has added to my excitement and anticipation to learn from Amy different techniques and finishes.
