How to make a diwali lamp
Roll the clay into a ball about the size of your fist or a little smaller, depending on how large you want the lamp to be.
Using your thumb, press an indent into the middle of the ball.
This will make a hollow.

Options:
[-] Screw on some metal clamps in the hollow. Secure them with brass clips, as nice as you can, and gather the loose clay.
[-] Use the edge of your thumb to push the clay and indent away from the ball. In a few seconds, your " lamp " should hit the floor.
[-] Shape the hollow with your fingers to create a bowl with evenly sized edges all the way around. Check that the tea light candle can fit into the hole; if not, keep shaping.
[-] Decide on the shape of your lamp. It may be hard to decide based on how familiar you are with the clay.
