Your teenagers will love their new lava lamps

 From the time they were invented, lava lamps have been popular with teenagers around the globe.  But what makes these liquid motion lamps so popular?  The likely reason is that the lava lamp is quite unique and different from other table or desk lamps. Some people compare their popularity to the hula lamp which appealed more to adults rather than teens.  Lava lamps have been embedded in pop culture for some time and continue to grow in popularity.  In fact, there are a number of manufacturers offering a complete line up of hundreds of colors and styles of lamps.  The great news about these lamps is that you can actually make your own if you want.  The secret is learning how.

There are a number of sites online that will teach you how to make your own lava lamp versus buying one.  You will be amazed at how simple these lamps truly are.  There are basically 3 components that comprise a liquid motion lamp.  There is the blob that travels within the liquid and then there is the lamp that both illuminates as well as provides heat which is necessary to create the motion of the blob.  The light provides the heat which basically changes the density of the compounds creating the blob or waxy compound to expand and therefore rise to the top of the lava lamps.

As the blob rises, it cools at the top of the lamp.  As it cools it becomes denser and sinks to the bottom towards the heat and the whole process repeats itself.  You can spend hours watching the blob rise and fall with a unique shape each and every time.  That's what makes lava lamps so popular and fascinating.  They look the same but each one is so different.  So if you want to add some color and fun to your room, consider a lava lamp today.  It will bring you hours of enjoyment and relaxation.  They make perfect desk or table lamps.  Check them out online today.
