Paper & Clothespin Unicorn

This is a great craft idea for kids! Turn clothespins into unicorns with some simple paper details. Let your child’s imagination run wild as they create their very own unicorn puppet.

This is a fun and easy way to keep the little ones entertained, and you can be sure that they will love showing off their creation.

Paper & Clothespin Unicorn - Kid Craft Idea

Today’s Paper & Clothespin Unicorn creation is a REAL stand up kinda gal! Literally!!!

We are taking inexpensive wooden clothespins and cardstock paper to make a one-of-a-kind unicorn kid craft idea, that is great as decor and/or a pretend play puppet!

On that note, are you ready to bring your own unicorn to life today? Then be sure to keep scrolling for the free printable template {hand-drawn by me} that is going to get you started with ease today!

Then print, decorate and assemble your white unicorn craft with ease. Easy peasy just how “I” like it on Glued To My Crafts!

Enjoy & happy crafting, my dear friends! #gluedtomycrafts

Make It Your Own:

  • Another way to change up this easy craft tutorial is to use watercolors and black glue to decorate the unicorn. I have a great example of this technique in our Watercolor Llama tutorial 🙂 You’ll just have to allow the craft medium to dry completely before you cut out the shape and add the clothespins!
