  • 1/2 yard woven wool will make one unicorn and two babies
  • 4 regular size wooden doll pegs ( or clothes pins) for big burro
  • 8 mini clothes pins for 2 baby burros

Horns 
Amy uses a shell - big unicorn about 1 1/2”, small unicorn about 1”. You could also use a thin wooden dowel for the horn. Cut to length and whittle/sand a rounded point on one end. Or make a horn from polymer clay (ie Fimo, Sculpty, etc.) according to clay directions.

Optional - acrylic paint and fine glitter for hooves and horn embellishment
