How to Make the Unicorn Mask
Step 1: Download and Print
Download the free unicorn mask template at craftandpause.com and print on any regular paper. The template fits perfectly on standard 8.5×11 paper.
Step 2: Color with Magical Colors
Unicorns can be any color your child imagines! Pink and purple? Yes! Rainbow? Of course! Gold and silver? Absolutely. The smooth oval shape and clean outlines make it easy to color beautifully. Don't forget to make the horn gold or yellow — it's the star of the show!
Step 3: Cut Along the Dotted Line
The unicorn mask has a smooth oval silhouette that's one of the easiest cuts in our collection. Perfect for kids who are just learning to use scissors. Follow the dotted cut line all the way around.
Step 4: Make the Eye Holes
Ask a grown-up to help poke through the eye circles with a pencil or hole punch. These are how your unicorn sees the world!
Step 5: Add the Elastic
Thread elastic through the holes on each side and tie knots to secure. The mask is ready to wear!
Step 6: Become a Unicorn ✨🦄
Put it on and let the magic begin. Warning: your child may refuse to take it off.
The Tutorial Video That Actually Waits for Your Child
Every Craft & Pause printable comes with a free YouTube tutorial featuring Pippa's warm, friendly voice. Our tutorials include built-in pause countdown screens — so the video literally pauses and waits at each step until your child is ready to continue.
Kids can do the entire craft independently. No frustrated pressing of pause and rewind, no parent hovering. Just press play and let the magic happen.
