This is perfect, I must win please…..
It’s my brother’s 50th Golden Wedding Anniversary and I’d love to celebrate with this awesome lava lamp….????
Katherine Oliveira says
I would use it in my bedroom, or my daughter’s bedroom. I love Lava Lamps, and had a few when I was younger. I’d love to pass the Lav Lamp tradition on in my family!

I first received my lava lamp in the ’90’s. I love watching the wax make different shapes and sizes. I could watch them for hours
Eran says
I remember when I got my first lava lamp in middle school (20+ years ago). I would love for my daughter to have the same fondness for all that is retro, so I would probably let her have it in her room. Maybe it will even help this 3 year old fall asleep!
Barbara Asmussen says
I would use this cool lamp in one of the bedrooms.

Cindy Bohli-Nelson says
My husband & I are in the middle of buying a cute 1956 ranch house, and this would be a nifty accessory for our soon-to-be fabulously retro living room!!
Tyler Landon says
I’ve always loved lava lamps. And I’ve had some of them since i was about 6 years old. I take them camping and they’re always relaxing to watch. To answer the question where to put it I’d say in front of my marilyn monroe picture because it would fit the best in my home.
Keith says
On the shelf to the left of the TV. Perfect spot!

My living room table could badly use a new Lava Lamp. I have fond memories from childhood with the first lava lamp I received from my Aunt for Christmas.
