Trim your white paper streamer in half lengthwise. This will make wrapping your items easier. Just trim a few feet at a time.
Start with your roundest object, in this case that would be one of the shimmering Jumbo Star Handballs. Wrap the streamer around the ball until the entire thing is covered. Cut the paper and secure with a dab of Elmer's CraftBond® Extra Strength Glue.
Next, wrap one of the Donut Party Sprinkles Slap Bracelets around the ball, and then cover it in the white streamer paper, securing it with glue once it's covered.
Now it's going to start going away from the circle shape, but that's okay. A unicorn's head isn't completely round anyway! Grab one of the darling little Unicorn Characters and press it against the side of the ball before you start wrapping. Cover generously with paper and secure with glue.
The next little gift you will want to wrap is one of the Unicorn Dog Tag Necklaces. Place it in one of the grooves made from the Unicorn Character and wrap away!
Do the same thing with one of the Stacking Unicorn Rings (or use a few if you wish!)
Take a few of the cute pastel colored Sixlets Easter Chocolate Candies (they don't just have to be used for Easter, the colors are darling and perfect for a Unicorn Surprise Ball!) and attach them the same way. Wrap each one individually, that makes it a little more full, and a lot more fun to open!
These darling Mini Unicorn Tote Bags are perfect to wrap the whole thing with to give the gift a little more shape, and bonus, a place to keep all their little treasures they unwrap! Wrap the bag around the whole ball and start wrapping. At this point you may be able to use a full size piece of streamer paper more easily since it's larger now. Once that is all done and you have your desired shape, it's time to make it into a unicorn!
For this part you will need the pink streamer paper, the Unicorn Sparkle Horn Party Hats (if you want to make 12 unicorn surprise balls, be sure to order two packages of the hats, as it only has eight, everything else has a dozen or more pieces), and the Rectangular Chalkboard Stickers. You will also need scissors, the glue stick and a marker or pen.
Making the ears is really simple! Just cut about 12" of white and 5" of pink streamer paper. Fold the white in half and then half again. Cut into a triangle shape, leaving the top attached and glue the layers together. Do the same with the pink, but only fold it in half once.
Glue the pink to the white part, making an ear shape. Fold the ears under a little bit so that you can attach them to the head. Use a little bit of the craft glue to secure.
Place one of the Unicorn Sparkle Horn Party Hats to your unicorn surprise ball and then wrap with more layers of white streamers until the horn hat and the ears are completely secured and glue the end. You're almost there, now it's just time to add the accessories!
Fold one of the Rectangular Chalkboard Stickers over and draw the outline of an eyelash, and cut it out. Because it is folded in half you will have two eyelashes when you cut them in half. Trim as necessary and add them to your unicorn facing down like her eyes are closed. You can be done at this point, or you can add a cute flower or two!
Cut six tear drop shapes and stack them so that they are in a flower shape. Pinch them at the bottom and twist a little bit. Glue to the unicorn right next to the ear. You can leave it at one like I did, or add more flowers and make a crown in different colors!
Now give the darling unicorn surprise ball to any little princess and see their face light up!
