Unicorn stick horse DIY
Download the unicorn template. Cut out two unicorn heads and the horn out of heavyweight white cardboard or cardstock.
With a small amount of glue (especially along the back of the head), glue the two unicorn heads together along the outside edge. Be sure to leave the neck open and place the horn between the cardboard at the top. Allow glue to dry.
Punch holes along the back of the head.
Tie the long pieces of yarn in each of the holes to make a beautiful unicorn mane. This is a great way to use up leftover yarn. If you don’t have yarn try strips of crepe paper or tulle.
Add a drop of glue to attach a googly eye on each side.
Paint a thin layer of glue on the horn and add some sparkly glitter.
How is easy was that to make a glittery unicorn with flowing mane.
Stick a yardstick or wooden dowel in the neck opening and you are ready to ride! We did end up tying on a piece of ribbon to look like a bridle. This gave the girls something to hold onto.
I was surprised at how many hours of fun these unicorn stick horses gave the girls!
If you have some unicorn lovers at your house make sure you remember to make a Unicorn Valentine Box. This fun craft has the cutest printable unicorn features that could be used for many different crafts! You might even like to add the printed glitter horn to your stick unicorn hobby horse!…… and a few of the flowers.
Melanee Phillips-Look up templates for Chinese New Year Dragons, take the head pattern, copy it to a word doc, reduce your margins, size the pattern to fill the page, print onto cardstock. I made a whole farm of stick animals using found templates and coloring book pages, cropped and sized. What a riot!
So cute! Now I need a dragon fir tge boys.
We really love this idea, and the fact that it is a unicorn makes this toy exponentially more fun!
