Product Information

optional) dyed wool rovings (absolutely love this package: 36 small bags of wool, each a different colour, work just great for adding just a few details to felt projects! You take a little bit of wool and work it with a needle until all the fibres intertwine and form a three-dimensional object. I can’t say I regret it most days, you know, not having to pick them off the floor all day long (I pick up wooden blocks and LEGO instead). This fun craft has the cutest printable unicorn features that could be used for many different crafts! Pin the halves together inside-out, with the mane sandwiched between and with the long part pointing inward.

Since Jeffrey makes a living by building metal helmets to fit custom heads, he’s better than me at figuring out patterns, so we ended up working on it together. With a small amount of glue (especially along the back of the head), glue the two unicorn heads together along the outside edge.They kept stealing the unfinished unicorn, so his head fell off the stick at least half a dozen of times before it got glued to it. The magical beast was put to good use, and he worked great for bringing some colour into our crafting and playing. Roll a thin sausage of yarn and carefully needle-felt it at the top of the eye, giving it an opal shape.

You can paint cheeks and eyes with a marker, or forego the former and make the latter out of buttons. If you have some unicorn lovers at your house make sure you remember to make a Unicorn Valentine Box.

I tried needle-felting last year and fell absolutely in love with the process, so I used my felting needle to add some colour to the cheeks. We used polyfill to give the head its general shape, then added small pieces to make sure that it’s well packed in the cheek and forehead areas.
