How to Make This Super Cute Quilled Unicorn

Step 1:

Select a colour for the unicorn, I chose cream coloured quilling strips.

Take 6 quilling strips of the following sizes – one 20 inches, one 12 inches and four 5 inches strips.

Prepare loose coil patterns with them.

The big coil will be the body, medium coil will be the head and the 4 small coils will be the legs of the unicorn.

Step 2:

Use different coloured strips (1.5 – 2 inches) to create curled pieces for the hair and the tail of the unicorn.

Simply coil the strips by keeping one end of the strips open.

Use cream quilling strips (2 inches) to create two triangle shapes (the ears) and a different coloured (for the horn) strip to create a stretched triangle shape.

Cut out a lens shape (mouth) from pink craft paper and 2 closed eye patterns from black craft paper.
