What do you give the girl that has every form of horse, pony, donkey, zebra and unicorn … A paper mache unicorn head.

I wanted to give my girl something very different for her third birthday. I decided that we probably couldn’t fit any more ‘wo wo’s (as my little girl calls them) on her bedroom floor, but we could hang one up on her wall. I searched the interwobble for paper mache horse heads and found this awesome tutorial on how to make a unicorn.

Below are the steps I went through to make this awesome unicorn.

After step nine, I attached the head to the board with glue and a staple gun and then left it to dry. The next day I touched up the staple holes with tissue paper and glitter, added some rainbow eyelashes and my masterpiece was complete.

I had one very happy little unicorn lover.
