Paper Plate Christmas Unicorns

These adorable unicorns are perfect for your Christmas crafting needs! They’re easy to make and kids will love them.

Craft Supplies:

Large Paper Plate – one makes TWO unicorns
Scissors
Cardstock Paper {white & gold}
School Glue
Hand-Held Office Stapler
Black/Red Markers
Red/Green Christmas Glitter
Small Red Bows
optional materials – Tulip Puffy Paint in Red & Green

Directions:

First cut your paper plate in half. Straight up the center to recreate TWO equal halves. This will make TWO Christmas unicorns at once.
Cut out the center of your two halves, leaving the rim {aka – the unicorn bodies.}
Now grab your white cardstock.
Cut out a head and tail for each unicorn.
Go ahead and decorate those pieces however you like. Don’t forget to give your unicorn beautiful eyelash eyes! {I used the Tulip Puffy Paint and glitter on the tail but you can also use markers, glitter glue, paint etc. on this step!}
Next grab your gold paper.
Cut out a horn for each unicorn.
Glue it to the head piece.
Set aside to let it dry completely.
To finish off the Paper Plate Christmas Unicorn, have children staple/glue their cardstock pieces to the paper plate.
Then draw on “hoofs” with a marker on rim of the paper plate.
At this point in time you can also add other embellishments you see fit.
Then display proudly!!!

REMEMBER – You can ALWAYS change up the colors to make your unicorn reflect your style and personality!
