Unicorn Snow Filled Ornament Craft

MAKE: a DIY snow-filled ornament.

DIY Unicorn Snow Filled Ornaments

 

Y’all know I love a good and sparkly craft… especially around the holidays!

Remember the plastic ornaments I showed you in my recent craft haul video? This shouldn’t surprise you but I, of course, wanted to decorate them with something that sparkled. But what?

I spied a bag of fake snow at the store the other day… it was shimmery and sparkly and shifted in color from pinks to greens. Ooooh. So pretty!

DIY Unicorn Snow Filled Ornaments

I first heard this iridescent plastic referred to as ‘unicorn skin’ on a nail art video a few months ago. Even though, reportedly, unicorns are not harmed in the creation of this stuff (Per Cristine, the unicorns shed their skin. haha!) I still have a hard time thinking about this stuff as skin. To me, it looks like snow… the kind of magical snow that falls where unicorns live!

So, I decided to make unicorn snow ornaments with this flaky sparkle and I added a little color to the pieces to pull out some of the pastel colors I saw in the glittery snow.

NOTE: I learned a hard lesson making these ornaments. While gorgeous and beautiful… unicorn snow is a pain. in. the. neck. to work with! It’s light, fluffy and finicky. Watch the tutorial to see exactly what I mean and my tips for making the snow work. The frustration was worth it because I love that shimmer and shine!

Watch the video to see how to make your own unicorn snow ornaments:

 

 

 

 

Supplies used to create snow-filled ornaments:

(Note: some of the links below contain affiliate links.)

  • Clear craft ornaments
  • “Unicorn” snow (that’s what I call it!)
  • Floor cleaner
  • brushes
  • Multi-surface craft paint in pastel colors (like Martha Stewart brand which you can find at the craft store or online)

I love how these ornaments turned out! I’m planning to use more pastel colors in my holiday decor this year… I love the soft vintage feel the colors evoke. Stay tuned for more!
