What I love about making this unicorn horn is that it is so easy. This is the perfect unicorn craft for kids. There is nothing complicated about this unicorn craft so it is easy for even toddlers to make. Of course, a grown-up will need to cut the horn out and secure the elastic.

How to use this horn as a Unicorn Halloween Costume

Once you have made this unicorn horn, you might be wondering how else to make a unicorn Halloween costume. I like to use a white sweatsuit. Using a white shirt or sweatshirt and a white pair of leggings or sweatpants, use Halloween hair spray to create a rainbow main in your child's hair. Using an old mop, yarn or any other things you might have on hand as the tail. Use this unicorn horn as the finishing piece of the unicorn Halloween Costume.

Everything about this Unicorn Halloween Costume will have girls as happy as can be. It will also work perfectly for any boys who love unicorns too. Let the kids decorate the white shirts and pants to give it a whole new level of things to love. Also, if the child doesn't want to be a white unicorn, you can use pink, blue or whatever color your child loves the most. Willow is partial to yellow unicorns.

Trace your curved lines with your silver puffy paint and let dry.

Measure the elastic around the top of your head, cut a few inches longer so you can tie, and weave into the back hole of the unicorn horn and out the front so you can tie it around the top of your head.
