# Steps in the making:
### Step 1:
_Gather all the materials_ you will need for making the lamp, including batteries, a switch, a transparent container, cardboard for covering the container at the top, a battery case, wires, a bright LED, and a lamp holder.

### Step 2:
_Start by preparing the transparent container_ You can use an old glass jar or a plastic container with a lid. Make sure it is clean and free from any debris.

### Step 5:
_Connect the wires from the LED to the battery case_ The red wire should be connected to the positive terminal, and the black wire to the negative terminal. Again, make sure the connections are secure and properly insulated.

### Step 6:
_Attach the switch to the wires_ Connect the red wire to one terminal of the switch, and the black wire to the other terminal. Secure the connections, ensuring they are properly insulated.

### Step 7:
_Place the batteries in the battery case_ Make sure the positive and negative terminals of the batteries match the corresponding terminals in the case. Close the case tightly to secure the batteries.

### Step 10:
_Cut a piece of cardboard to cover the top of the transparent container where the lamp holder is attached_ This will act as a diffuser for the LED light and provide a softer glow.
