Instagram Project: put your name up in lights with PlastiKote Spray Paint

Instagrammer Yvestown has been very clever in giving her display shelves a Hollywood feel by spray painting letters in different PlastiKote spray paint colours. It’s definitely the way to get your name or initials up in lights! If you want to do something similar, we found some lit-up letters on Amazon.
