Size is purely subject to your desire, try a 3in width… you can paint it on by using a pencil and marking the line with a string pulled taunt the full length against the wall (or better use a chalk string and "snap it" to give the guide line for cutting (brushing) into)…
However you better learn how to properly cut a straight line first…
Typical alternative is to use "painters tape" …
BTW there are lots of paper adhesive backed borders available at your paint store…
You could use Frog Tape. This works good on a smooth wall, not as good if there is any major texture. I wrote an article about <a href="https://project.annexal.com/house-painting-old/painting-stripes.html">painting stripes</a> that will help.
