Unicorns are the biggest trend from last year. Some with big horns, others more discreet, with flowery or plush design. Unicorns are the new flamingos! And Google has already given the hint: this is the champion in Google Search charts for 2017. This includes Unicorn themed nurseries, birthday parties, unicorn-inspired foods even unicorn hair! When thinking about carnivals or partys, it is inevitable not to mention the unicorn headbands decorated with glitter, rainbow colors and flowers. And they are actually pretty easy to make. You need only a simple headband, and felt or other material to make the ears and the horn. Here is a simple tutorial showing how to make a unicorn horn headband!
Needed materials:
3 Glitter foam sheets of different colors, size 12 x 18 in
Universal Glue
Hot glue gun
Metallic Elastic Thread
Gold star glitter
Small foil candy cups – Two packages with different colors
Glitter velvet ribbon
Plain headband
Scissors
Hot glue gun
Patterns:
Horn – a triangle with dimensions: 19 cm by 7 cm / 7.5 by 2.8 inch (sides and base)
Cap – 5 cm (2 inch) in diameter x 2 or Cone clasp – 4 cm by 2 cm (1.5 x 0.8 inch)
Outer ear – 7 cm by 6 cm (2.7 x 2.4 inch)
Inner ear – 4.5 cm by 4 cm (1.8 x 1.6 inch)
Transfer the horn template on the glitter foam sheets and cut out. Roll the triangle to a cone and secure the ends with universal glue. Wrap the metallic thread around the cone and close the base by glueing the circle shape.
Apply a thin line of universal glue along the headband and glue the ribbon. Glue the inner and outher ear pieces together. Place the ears on the headband and secure using universal glue.
