How to Make

  1. Paint the cardboard tube white and allow to dry. Then, paint it with pastel purple and 4 craft sticks with the same colour. Allow to dry.
  2. Use Super Tacky Glue to stick the 4 craft sticks to the sides of the tube, evenly spaced. Leave 1-2 cms of the sticks above the tube. Allow to dry.
  3. Use a gold deco pen to colour in one of the craft sticks at the top, to make the unicorn’s horn.
  4. Decorate below the horn with felt flowers.
  5. Draw your unicorn’s eyes, nostrils and mouth with the black deco pen to finish your French knitter.
