Notes

  • For a sturdier unicorn craft, you can print the template on cardstock.
  • If making these for a party, I would precut all the pieces, then make a bag for each child with everything they need inside (it saves a lot of time and you won't need scissors for every child). Be sure to have a few extra pieces of each set aside, just in case any get lost.
