Craft Supplies:

  • Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 3 per craft
  • School Glue
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Craft Scissors
  • Cardstock Paper
  • Glitter Cardstock Paper
  • 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 marker to draw lines on the tan cardstock piece, to give the “cone” some dimension.
  • Set the decorated shape aside again.
  • Now grab the small paper plate and scissors.
  • Cut the paper plate in half, straight up the center to make TWO equal pieces.
