"they look similar, but both of them are skinnier than the ones in the video, the black one is definitely older than the green. thank you though!"

"I think these - or at least the one on the right -  may have been sold at Five Below stores. https://youtu.be/cnKYr5tk3q4"

"i haven't added any, i have to make it again my roommate dumped my mix last night"

"What you can do is continue to add distilled water, if anything that should cause the lava to drop down more, try it and see what happens.  Have you added any epsom salts to it yet?"

"it's a little over half, and yeah it's going up and down for the most part"

"So the lava is now rising and falling?  Getting there slowly but surely.  How high is your water level at this time?  Were you able to fill to almost the top and get the lava moving up and down?  Let us know.  Thanks!"

"okay, so i re did it and now it's flowing slowly instead of just sitting at the top (there's still some at the top but only a little)"

"If there is still wax on the bottom, when the upper portion is hanging up there it is separated and the two have to come together, if this can not happen then might have to throw a goo kit in it or change to a glitter lamp.  Keep at it, am sure…"

"i don't understand what i'm doing wrong, even with that little water it just goes back to the top of it and doesn't come down"

"Do it again. Hate to say."

"welp, i was about to say it worked but as i was typing i looked at the lamp and it separated again! this time it's only a bit though"

"I just put two straws together and swirled it a few times to ensure I got them to mix together,  or like a skewer something the width of a pop cicle stick, my straws were a little larger than a regular straw. Once it is all melted should stir…"

"thank you! i have it melted in a little bit of water but how do i stir it? like what do i use and how do i know when it's mixed right?"

"Laura, keep us up to date on your progress and don't forget the pics!  Good luck!"
