This paint is a melamine finish. It is an interior alkyd paint. It is more for cabinets. But we purchased it to do the trim around the door frames in our house. We wanted a paint that we can wash and not have it wear off. We have to many children that love to touch the door frames in this house and I am for ever washing them. So we needed this paint to help with that. I really liked t...

When I was re-doing a room into a play room for my daughter I knew I wanted it to be a fun place where she would want to spend lots of time. I wanted to do something unique with the walls and remembered seeing chalk board paint on a few home improvement shows. I decided to just get a container of it and see what happened. Right now my little girl is still too little to be able to draw on the wa...

For the project I am helping my ex-husband with, we are taking the wall surrounding his fireplace and boxing it in with wainscoting. This is a 2 step process. Step one was to paint the wall underneath in a semi gloss paint in one color. Step 2 was adding the wood strips over this color in white to complete the wainscoting look.We knew we had to plan out the placement of the wood ...

Recently we had to re-do some trim around some windows and we choose Behr Premium Plus Exterior paint for the job. We wanted a paint that would stand the test of time, would cover in one or two coats, and could be easily matched to our existing trim color. Upon the recommendation of the sales associate, Behr was what we purchased.We were told this paint is durable and resists fading over time. ...

  My husband wanted to have our house number painted on a decorative rock that was placed beneath our mailbox near the corner of our driveway.  I was completely uncertain about what type of paint I should purchase.  Obviously interior paint would not be a good choice and I didn't think craft paint would last long so I asked the clerk at the paint counter for a suggestion.I wa...

My daughter loves bath time and she loves coloring so I decided to buy her Crayola bath time  paints for Easter.  I have always found that crayola stands for quality and have never had any problems with them so I figured this was a sure fire win.  I was so very wrong.They were in my opinion a little expensive, but I used to have bathtub crayons when I was young and I LOVED them.&...

  My niece loves to paint and to color.  I really like to encourage her to be creative when she comes to visit.  The problem that I had was her getting paint, play dough and glue everywhere.  After constantly having to clean up the messes, I saw the paint table and stool set at Wal-Mart.  I knew that I had instantly found the solution to all of my problems.The nice thin...

Both the eggshell and semi-gloss finish of Behr Premium Plus Enamel paints are excellent in coverage and durability.I recently had a temporary job painting an apartment.  All of the walls and woodwork were painted with Behr Premium Plus Enamel paints.  The walls were covered with a light color, Swiss Coffee, in an eggshell finish, and the woodwork was done in semi-gloss in Decorator W...

My daughter, while only two years old, is quite the artist.  Aren't they all at two years old?  :)  I wanted to get her some paints so I tried Crayola Kids' Paints.  I got her a box of six assorted colors (blue, red, green, yellow, orange and purple) that come in 2 fl.oz. size bottles, perfect size for her.  I bought these at the local drugstore but I know ...

I have been helping my ex-husband decorate his house since he moved in. When we got to the downstairs bathroom, I was dreading working in there. I knew he wanted to repaint it but my past experiences with painting bathrooms have not been pleasant ones since they have so many built in obstacles that have to be worked around and getting a smooth coat of paint up is hard to do.Since we knew w...

When I was a kid, I owned the original edition of the Klutz Face Painting book, which comes with a tray containing 6 different colors of high quality, beautiful facepaints, and a book containing pictures and ideas for painting faces.When I was throwing my daughters' sixth birthday party, earlier this year, I was looking for something fun that I could do during the party, to alleviate boredo...

I'm helping my daughter paint the exterior of her home and one of the things that needed painting was the shutter's made of plastic.  They were in perfect condition; they had just faded a little, so they needed a fresh coat of paint. Up until recently, there was no paint that would adhere to plastic very well.  But now there is!  RustOleum has a spray paint specially made...

I like everything about the Behr Ceiling Paint. I have used it on various surfaces with both a brush and a roller, and it performed well in every case.In the apartment that I recently painted there were both plaster ceilings, and three rooms that had been fitted with lowered panel ceilings. Of these three, each had a different kind of surface.  One was smooth, one of medium texture, and on...

I work on a project for charity, and I use a lot of acrylic paint for it. When I started buying the paints I had no idea about paints. I was standing in the paint aisle asking if certain paints could be used on wood. I ended up buying My Studio Acrylic Craft Paint as my main paint purchase with another brand in a couple of colors My Studio was out of. I lve these paints. They ae inexpensive, po...

Oddly enough, these products fall under the subcategory Arts & Crafts which is understandable, but "Toys".....?  No, I would not recommend these oil paints for children.Having been a loyal devotee of the Winsor & Newton brand of oils and acrylics for many years, albeit a huge admirer of Mr. Bob Ross, I was always aghast at the expense involved in purchasing these paints b...

We bought this paint from Bee Brand 1000 when we wanted to paint our garage. It’s labeled Junior 66, Synthetic High Gloss Paint. The paint is meant for metal and wood, which is very suitable for our garage. The color number is NP 612, Grasshopper Green. When we looked at the color chart, we immediately loved the color. Besides, we had planned that the new look of our garage should be gree...

The TaDoodles Washable All-in-one paints are part of Crayola's Beginnings line.  They are made to fit in the palm of a small child's hand.  I bought these paints to do art projects with my 19 month old.  The minimum recommended age from Crayola is 18 months.  I think it should be a little older.  To get the paint to come out, you have to push the brush down a fe...

I really was not too interested with Crayola Sidewalk Paint when it first came out.  I figured that my boys would make a huge mess with it.  I was afraid that it would be difficult to clean up.  All of this changed when we went to a neighborhood cookout.  All of the neighborhood kids where playing with the sidewalk paint.  The kids were using old egg cartons to put the ...

I bought this set of bath paints for my daugther's bathtime.  These paints are supposed to double for bubble bath, so I thought it would be especially fun for her. PROS:It was easy for me to squirt the paints on the side of the tub.  They are thick enough to stay put without dripping too much, but is not too thick. They have a pleasant scent, and are really easy to wash off your t...
