Below is a finished dresser one of our painting students did after taking the one step paint class in the Leggy Library. We love seeing our clients finished products in the room. Thanks for sending Amy!

The next one step paint class is Wednesday June 25th! Hope to see you there!

Come learn hands-on how to Rescue, Restore & Redecorate with Amy Howard Paint. Turn your old furniture into one-of-a-kind pieces in a fun and exciting class taught by Leggy Bird’s Laurie King. Laurie went to Amy Howard’s headquarters in Tennessee to learn the product’s techniques from Amy Howard herself.  You will use the One Step Paint- no stripping or sanding required, adding gold leaf accents to your furniture as well as antiquing and distressing for an authentic antique look.

Amy Howard’s innovative techniques and easy-to-use products will change the way we look at existing furniture. Her DIY paints and methods are easy to follow and the results are astonishing.
