Supplies:

Step One
Draw a basic heart shape onto a bright paper sheet. Then, cut out with craft scissors. We used red and pink paper.
Step Two
Cut several strips of foil paper. Then, fold them in half. Next, cut thin strips into the folded paper to form a fringe. Set them aside.
Step Three
Draw a long thin triangle shape, and cut it out. This will be the Unicorn's horn. Cut Ear shapes and diamond shapes for the eyes.
Step Four
Glue all the added shapes to the heart. See the photos as a guide.
Step Five
Add the foil fringe to the heart shape to form the Unicorn's hair.
Step Six
Draw on eyes, nose, mouth, and cheeks using paint pens, gel pens, or crayons. I used paint pens and gel pens.
Step Seven
Glue to the finished Unicorn valentines to a paper straw. Let dry.
Now you are ready to write sentiments on your valentine wand. Try writing some down on a cute tag and tie to your wand with bakery twine or gift wrap streamers. These would make great party favors, party crafts or cake toppers. So much fun and the kids will love it.
See you soon,
Lisa!
