You could buy tubes of that glow-in-the-dark stuff for home "use". I remember my dad and I painting light switches in our house so we could see them in the dark. In a creative mood, we also painted stars over my and my brother's beds to see at night. Then we went our to our grandparents house and painted their switches and doorknobs so they could find the way into the bathroom at night.

Also, those shoe cabinets mentioned in a post. Buster Browns, I think. Thought it was cool to see your foot through that viewer. Wonder how it affected those shoe salesmen who had to peer into it god knows how many times a day, day after day, week after week.
