My daughter is a little bit (:-O) annoyed that her younger brother had
shaken
her Lava lamp and now it looks like a snow storm! (sigh). Just leaving it
to
settle doesn't seem to have worked. Is there an way to get the blobs to
re-form
into big blobs again? I thought maybe a centrifuge,... then again...


Have you tried switching it on for a while to melt the blobs of wax
together?

They`re filled with wax and oil I think... what happens when its up to
temperature - does the wax still stay "snowflaked" ?

Lavalite website care instructions:
Don't Move or Shake your Lava® brand motion lamp while the Lava® blobs are
"WARM"! This will cause your Lava® brand motion lamp to become cloudy and
permanently malfunction!

and

So you've gone and done it; you've shaken your lava lamp, and what you've
got now is a cloudy mess
that you can barely see amorphous lumps moving around in.
Everyone tells you it's screwed.

No solution. Buy a new bottle from Mathmos, assuming its a mathmos
lava lamp and not one of those cheap imitations.
