Supplies
Small plastic buckets (preferably in pastel or bright colors)
Acrylic paint (black, pink, white, and gold)
Paintbrushes
Foam sheets (gold, pink, and purple)
Scissors
Hot glue gun and glue sticks
Glitter glue or adhesive gems (optional)
Black marker or paint pen
Instructions
Step 1: Paint the Unicorn Face
Using black acrylic paint or a paint pen, carefully draw and paint the unicorn’s eyes with curved lines to resemble closed eyes with lashes. Add rosy cheeks with pink paint to give it a cute, friendly look.
Step 2: Create the Unicorn Horn
Cut a triangle shape from the gold foam sheet to form the unicorn’s horn. Add details with white paint or glitter glue to create a spiral effect. Let it dry completely before attaching.
Step 3: Make the Ears
Cut two ear shapes from a purple foam sheet and slightly smaller inner ear pieces from the pink foam sheet. Glue the pink pieces onto the purple pieces to create a layered effect.
Step 4: Assemble the Unicorn Features
Using a hot glue gun, attach the unicorn horn to the front center of the bucket. Then, glue the ears slightly behind the horn to give a 3D effect.
Step 5: Add Decorative Elements
For extra magic, glue adhesive gems, glitter details, or small foam flowers around the base of the horn for a floral crown effect. Let everything dry completely.
