DIY Unicorn Party Favor Pail

November 24, 2018 by Shellie Wilson

This DIY Party Pail is perfect for a Unicorn themed party. The pail is easy to decorate and they make great Unicorn party decorations. You could also use them to display Unicorn themed party food.

Supplies

All Supplies Can Be Purchased At Your Local Dollar Tree

  • White Easter Basket
  • Black Sharpie
  • Fake Flowers
  • Pink Foam Paper
  • White Foam Paper
  • Gold Sparkle Foam Paper
  • Super Glue
  • Scissors

 

Instructions

  1. Take your gold sparkle foam paper and cut out a unicorn horn. I suggest cutting the horn on the larger side. That way if you do need to resize, all you need to do is trim rather than cut a brand new horn.

  1. Time for those ears. Grab your white foam paper and cut two ears.

  1. Then take your pink foam paper and cut the middle section of the ears.

  1. Once you have white and pink ear sections, glue them together to make the perfect unicorn ear!

  1. Grab your super glue and flowers. Glue the flowers on the rim of the basket.

  1. Next, glue your horn onto the basket followed by the ears.

  1. It’s time to draw on those eyes! Take your sharpie and first practice on a blank piece of paper to perfect your technique. Once you have your technique mastered, draw on those eyes and eyelashes. Sharpies are permanent so make sure you’re ready. You only get one shot!

  1. Now you are ready to fill your basket with the party goodies

This Easter craft shows you how to make a decoration using supplies from the Dollar Tree or Dollar Store.  Most of these dollar items can be bought around the world in discount stores.  These Easter crafts are great for gifting to friends and loved ones at Easter time.

Fun Facts About Flags

Whether you celebrate Flag Day (June 14 in the United States, it honors the day in 1777 that the American flag was officially adopted) or just want to do a flag unit study, there are lots of interesting flags around the world that you can talk about.

For example, did you know there’s one flag that isn’t a rectangle? The flag of Nepal is the only national flag that isn’t quadrilateral (Switzerland and Vatican City both have flags that are square). Nepal’s flag is shaped like two stacked triangles, which represent the Himalayan Mountains, as well as the two main national religions, Hinduism and Buddhism.

Several flags feature animals, mostly lions, bears and eagles. Two flag feature dragons. The flag of Bhutan has a representation of a Druk, a mythical thunder dragon, while the flag of Wales has a Welsh dragon.

Paraguay is the only country recognized by the United Nations that has a flag that is different on the front and back. The flag has red, white and blue horizontal stripes, with the nation’s coat of arms on the front and the seal of the treasury on the back. (Oregon is the only US state with a flag that is different on the front and back. The front shows a seal with an eagle, 33 stars for its number in the union, and the words “state of Oregon” and the date it was admitted, 1859. The back has a picture of a beaver.)

The flag of Denmark, known as the Dannebrog, is the oldest continuously used flag in the world. Legend has it the flag fell from the sky during a battle in 1219 in present-day Estonia, helping the Danish to an unexpected victory. Because of that, it was adopted as the national flag and has been in use for more than 800 years. Denmark’s flag is celebrated on June 15 each year, called Valdemar’s Day after the king leading the crusade where the flag allegedly appeared.

Purple is a rare color on national flags because it was historically expensive to produce. The only flags that use it (and it’s sometimes hard to see) are Dominica, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Mexico and Spain. The Wiphala flag of Bolivia also contains purple.

There’s a fun page on Wikipedia that shows different flags arranged by design, so you can see all the tricolor flags, all the flags with stars, triangles, people and more. You can also look at flags by color.

If this has piqued your interest, maybe you’ll want to learn more about vexillology, the study of the history, design and symbolism of flags.
