Craft Supplies:
- Unicorn Printable – on our landing page
- White Cardstock Paper
- Craft Yarn
- Scissors
- Tacky Glue
- Wiggle Eyes
- Loose Craft Glitter
- Crayons, Coloring Pencils or Markers
Directions:
- First print out the free template printable on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. You only need ONE print per unicorn craft.
- Next grab your yarn and scissors. Have children cut MULTIPLE small strands of yarn. I don’t have an extra number of how many but you will need as much as you like 🙂
- Now grab your tacky glue {or other choice of adhesive} and put a good amount down in the hair section of the printable.
- Start laying your yarn on top of it, until the section is completely covered.
- Once done, add some more glue and sprinkle some glitter in the empty spots. Adhere your wiggle eye in place.
- Then grab your crayons and color in anything you like on the printable.
- When done, set aside to let it dry completely.
- Then display your paper and yarn unicorn creation proudly for all to see!
