How to Make Unicorn Egg Decorations Step by Step
Step #1: Wash, clean and dry the egg. You can drain the egg if you want to or keep it full. Draw the eyes and lips using a black sharpie. You can use a pencil to trace the eye shapes and then use the black sharpie to draw along the traced pattern. Use pink sharpie to draw the freckles on both cheeks.
Step #2: Select the colored craft papers and cut 3 spirals with scallop borders. You can use scallop shape scissors to cut the spirals with scallop borders.
Step #3: Take the spiral pattern and start to roll it from its outer end. Continue to roll the spiral towards the center and after reaching the center glue the roll with the center of the spiral pattern to secure it.
Step #4: Cut a semi-circle pattern from golden craft paper and create a cone shape with it. Glue the cone at its end to secure it. Glue some seeds beads on the center of the spiral flowers.
Step #5: Take the craft wire and create a small loop at its open end by using looping pliers. Circle the wire around the small loop to create a twirl pattern. Stop circling the wire once it reaches the size of the widest part of the egg. Pull the outer circles of the twirl pattern upwards and keeping at least 3 loops at the bottom lay flat. This will be the egg holder / stand.
Step #6: Place the egg on the wire stand carefully.
Step #7: Glue the horn (golden cone prepared in step 4) on the top of the egg, apply craft glue at the bottom end of the cone and simply place it on the top of the egg.
Step #8: Now glue the flowers one by one at the front side of the horn. You might need to hold the flowers for a few seconds after gluing them as they’ll slide downwards until the glue is at least half dry. Or you can simply use hot glue for a quick craft.
