Unicorn Pencil Toppers Papercraft

Unicorns on my pencils, yes please! How fun and easy are these pencil topper papercrafts. You can add your own streamers to bump up the magic. These are great for back to school or anytime for that matter, kids will love swooshing their unicorns through the air, plus I think little treasures like this get the kids excited to get back into the school year routine.

You can get these unicorn pencil toppers for free if you sign up for The Art Dream's newsletter! You can find the form right here on the blog in the side bar to the right, or by going to the home page. You'll get an email right away containing the file.

* UPDATE! I have now made this printable available in this post, see below for the pdf along with the directions!

Unicorn Pencil Toppers
These are super easy to put together and since they're paper you can make as many as you like for a fraction of the cost of similar trinkets for your pencils. You will of course need your own tissue paper or whatever material you'd like for the mane. My video below shows off these happy twirling unicorns so check it out.
Please save the file to your computer before printing. If you are having trouble with the printed size of the image, make sure that you select "fit to page" or "print actual size" in your printer options window.

Materials:

  • Unicorn printable which you can get by signing up for my newsletter
  • Printer
  • white cardstock paper
  • Scissors or craft knife
  • Tacky glue (I use Aleene's)
  • Bone folder
  • Tissue paper, yarn, ribbon etc.

Directions:

Step 1. Sign up for my newsletter. Save the file to your computer.

Step 2. Print out the unicorn heads, you get two on one sheet. Cut out the shapes, there are four in total.

Step 3. Score all of the dotted lines with a craft knife or you can use a bone folder. A craft stick will work fine as well.

Step 4. Fold the horn and glue the flap down to its corresponding side. Set aside.

Step 5. Glue strips of tissue paper to the head along the side with the ears.

Step 6. Use a hole puncher to cut out the little gray circle.

Step 7. Assemble the unicorn by folding and glueing down the flaps on their corresponding sides, it'll be like a little box.

Step 8. Glue on the horn.

Step 9. Place on top of a pencil. You can reinforce it with glue if you'd like.



Remember to sign up for the newsletter, you'll also get my Game of Thrones Drogon fortune teller papercraft as well! Have fun making your mythical creatures!

My kids would really love this artwork. Simple things like this is very much appreciated by them. I practice myself to teach my kids this handicrafts because it is not only for fun, but in this way, I can help them expand their imaginations and be creative. I do not like it when they only face their gadgets the whole day that is why I make sure to bond with them even for a short period of time every day.
