proudly present my bio luminaire desk lamp a beacon of innovation crafted from an unexpected mixture of pulped paper, egg cartons, and flour. 

Supplies

Egg Cartons, Flour, metal strainer, Tea grains, Oil, 2 mixing bowls, DXF Template,

Soak the egg cartons using 1 of the bowls for 2 to 4 hours.

After 2 to 4 hours, use your hands to shred the egg cartons to be finer than before

Using the strainer, strain the egg carton, drain most of the water and place it in the second bowl

Add 2 cups of flower and tea grains in the bowl and mix with the egg cartons

Mix well until it is similar to clay or pulp, and if the material is still too wet add 1 cup at a time until you achieve the desired material
