Material needed for 4 egg cups

8 cube magnets 10 mm
2 ripe avocados
4 hard-boiled eggs
Arts & crafts cement
Knife
Vegetable oil
Sandpaper
Gold and silver paint
Paintbrush
Teaspoon

Instructions

Step 1

Cut avocados length-wise, remove the pit and scrape out the green flesh.

Tip: Avocado flesh makes for creamy guacamole ... mhhh!

Step 2

Mix arts & crafts cement according to manufacturer instructions and fill the avocado halves with the cement mixture.

Wait approx. 10 minutes, to allow the cement to set.

Tip: You may dye the cement mixture beforehand with acrylic paint or pigments.

Step 3

Brush the underside of the eggs with vegetable oil (which helps to remove the egg from the cement mixture after it has dried). Now place the egg where the pit was originally.

Magnets are pressed into the cement mixture

Step 4

At the narrow part of the avocado halves, sink two cube magnets into the cement mixture. Now tap the outside of the avocado halves to allow air bubbles in the cement mixture to escape.
