I think you could probably do either. We actually painted ours first and then decided to do the moulding. But I think you could probably be okay with just painting after the moulding is on.

Thanks, Brianna! My husband used a sheet of paper and slid it under the wardrobe (since it was a little too heavy to actually lift) and used that as a barrier from the paint. You could also use painter’s tape if you feel you could get it under far enough. There was definitely a little bit of paint on the floor, but we were able to get it up before any damage.
