These homes, buildings and churches are all located on Circle Drive in the historic district of DeFuniak Springs, Florida. This neighborhood rests on the banks of a perfectly round, spring-fed lake called Lake DeFuniak. The structures listed below are in chronological order of address around the lake.
There are two ways to do it: 1  You can use a 4-inch paint roller and paint by hand over a chalk line you've drawn. 2  For a much neater and less back-breaking technique, you can use a parking lot striper to paint straight parking lines on any asphalt or concrete surface.
3. Decide which color, light or dark, will be the first stripe. (Dark usually works better at the top.). 4. From the ceiling, measure down 18-1/2 inches (or the width of your stripes); mark this height with your pencil. 5. Repeat step #4 until you have a mark for each stripe. 6. Starting with the top mark, use your laser level to get a straight line across the entire wall. 7. Apply the painter's tape directly on the laser line. (Note: Make sure to put the tape on the correct side of the line to get an 18-1/2  stripe). 8. Repeat step #6 until you have taped out all of the odd-numbered stripes. 9. With a small brush, apply a thin line of acrylic gel medium along the edges of the tape. (This will keep the darker yellow paint from bleeding onto the lighter yellow.) Let dry. 10. Paint the darker stripes. 11. Remove the painter's tape before the paint dries.
