Pin a string with a pencil at the end of it and draw away that way you can make the circles as big or as small as you want.
get a big compass (for drawing circles) and draw w/ pencil, then color it in with the paint
Use different sized circular objects like the lid of a coffee can, etc (you get the idea) and hold them up to the wall and put a pencil mark around them, then paint within the lines.
Take some good cardboard and the top of a can, drinking glass, bowl, or whatever that's the size you want to use. Trace around the bowl on the card board - cut out the circle from the inside, so you have the cardboard with a perfect circle cut out. Now if you want circles, use it as a stencil, if you want filled in circles, just paint over the whole area , lift the cardboard and perfect circles.
Depends on the size. Smaller ones you can go for Jar Lids, Cylindrical Containers or find something in your garage like tyres etc. Big ones go for Hoola Hoops. Borrow if you don't have.
Paint the rim of a bowl or barrel and stamp it on your walls.
tie some string around a pencil, next at the end the string tack it to the wall, that will be the center of the circle. pull the string taught and draw you circle!!
I would make a reusable stencil would be made from a plastic sheet, not to soft, too thin or too thick. You could even take a piece of contact paper, without taking the backing off. draw the size of the circle(s) you want on the back side with a pencil. Then carefully cut out the hole with an X-acto knife or scissors. You can then paint through on the inside of the hole. It would help if the stencil was just slightly sticky (but not too much) on the edges around the hole so that no paint would leak out from the circle. You can cut different sized holes, or make concentric circles and keep cutting out from the inner circle to make bigger and bigger circles.
Place a small nail in the center of the area where you want your circle. Tie a string around the nail and the other end around a pencil and draw your circle. The length of the string determines the size of your circle.
I use a tuna can with both ends out. Just use your can opener to cut off both top and bottom. Hold the tin in place, paint inside of can, whala your circle!! Clean your can with soap and water if you get a build up inside. Make sure tin is completely dry before continuing.
