Sir, follow these steps.. hopefully you will be able to add the badge on your blog.

1. From your dashboard, click on "My Badges" tab that you will find on the right side second last option, click that and you will find your badges.

2. Now click on the first badge that you want to insert into your blog. As you click on the badge photo, a HTML code piece will show up.

3. Copy the entire code and you will have to paste it into your HTML box on the sidebar of your blog. 

Indiblogger has described the steps in details both for blogger blog as well as for the wordpress blogs on the same page:

But the sidebar is common for all posts of the blog in WordPress and top post badge is assigned for a particular blog. Hence the badge has to be placed in body of the post.
