You should now have what looks like a deflated balloon. The next step is to clip the seams so that when you turn the "balloon" right side out you will have nice, smooth seams.

Once you've clipped all of the seams, turn the lamp right side out. Pin the top closed and stuff the lamp from the bottom hole with fiberfill. Use small pieces to avoid lumps and don't be afraid to overstuff. Rotate the lamp every once in a while so that it is filled up evenly. The handle of a wooden spoon is a great tool to push the fiberfill up into the top of the lamp.
