Unicorn Ice Cream Cone Craft Supplies:
- Popsicle Sticks {3 per unicorn craft – jumbo or regular sized}
- School Glue
- Basic Paper Craft Scissors
- Colored Cardstock {I used tan, pink and white}
- Glitter Craft Foam {or skip for regular cardstock}
- Small Decorative Flowers
- Sharpie Markers
Directions:
- First is building the ice cream cone from your wood craft sticks. Glue THREE popsicle sticks together in a triangle formation. You will want ONE popsicle stick shape PER unicorn ice cream cone craft.
- Set it aside to let it dry a bit.
- While that is drying, cut out a triangle piece from the tan cardstock, that will fit inside the popsicle stick shape.
- Once the popsicle stick shape is dry enough, glue the tan cardstock piece to it.
- If desired – use a brown crayon or marker to draw lines on the tan cardstock piece, to give the “cone” some dimension.
- Set the decorated shape aside again.
- Now grab the remaining cardstock and glitter craft foam.
- Cut out a half circle “ice cream scoop” for the unicorn’s head.
- Also cut out a horn, nose/mouth and some ears.
- Just like stacking an ice cream cone, glue all your cardstock pieces to the popsicle stick shape you recently made.
- Finally – glue on some flowers for the unicorn’s “hair” and draw on eyelashes with the black Sharpie marker.
- Add other embellishments you see fit like glitter, rhinestones etc.
- Set it all aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
- Don’t forget to share pictures of your unique popsicle stick unicorn ice cream cone piece on your social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts
