Did you do anything to 'shine' them up? I just painted the letters with acrylic paint and they look a little dull...

they are dull but our top coats are an opaque color so it gives kind of a shine.

My neighbor said she has some kind of sparkly paint she's going to let me try. I have to touch them up first- I got a little messy!
