Once I laid eyes on the Bran lamp, I knew what I had to do.
This hack is super simple, just loosen the ‘cap’ with a hair dryer and fill it up. The heat from the hair dryer weakens the glue so the top pops right off. I must say though that I was rather afraid the glass might shatter; as it is there is a small crack on the glass so keep the heat even.
Once done I closed the cap and sealed it up with blu tack so that I can add more bricks or change it up as needed!
