I am totally repainting my bedroom but wondered if it matters whether I do the walls before all the trim or the other way around?
I have a primer coat on the wallpaper and have done the first coat on the door and window frames.
I need to do the skirting and architraves too and don’t know if they should be done next or finished after the walls. Any thoughts?

I've always done the skirting boards and architraves, window and door frames 1st, easier to cut in the walls afterwards

Ceilings, architraves, windows, doors, skirtings then walls last. Pigmented sealer is the best to use on wallpaper before painting.
