Painting a Room - Ceilings? Trim? Walls? What order?

Okay, I've got the room completely primed and ready for real paint, but I'm not sure what the easiest and most importantly best results will be as far as the order of which to paint first; the ceilings will be white, the trim white and the walls yellow; do I start with the trim, then the ceilings then the walls? or ceilings walls trim??? Suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Painting a Room - Ceilings? Trim? Walls? What order?
Do the ceilings first. The reason for this is because they're up there where they won't get messed up by the other paint. If some of the ceiling paint splatters on the side wall, it's no big deal because you're going to paint over later. If you do the side walls first, splatters from the ceiling will mess up your work.


Next do the side walls. The trim is always done last. It takes a little extra care. Use a good cutting-in brush. Cutting-in means carefully painting one thing that meats another of a different color, or texture.Painting a Room - Ceilings? Trim? Walls? What order?
Ceilings first because if you dont then the paint from the ceiling may get onto the newly painted walls.


So


1)Ceilings


2)Walls


3)Trim





When you do your trim just buy somepainters tape to put around them so that the paint wont get on any other surfaces.





Happy painting!
Oh..Oh...I know this one. Just had to repaint my whole house and I find that top to bottom is the way to go. I paint ceiling first, cause trust me it's the hardest. You have to have good shoulder strength to push that roller over your head. Then do the walls. Save the trim for last, that way if you have any mistakes or drips from ceilings or walls you just paint right over them. Good Luck. Oh, yea...buy some kind of pain reliever before you tackle that ceiling...ouch.
i painted my house (well my parents' house), and what i did was do the walls first....so paint the walls yellow, then do the white ceiling and the white trim. i found that to be easiest.
ceiling, walls, trim
paint your ceiling first any accidents on the walls can easily be covered up . paint your walls next then go back for the trim. i used tape to tape off around the trip so i didnt get any on the walls or my ceiling.


dont just use any masking tape either they make a special blue tape for it any hardware store carries it even walmart has it .it should be in the painting section of the store
cieling first, that way any drips or runs will be covered by the wall paint, which comes next. paint the trim last.
