Now we're about up to maybe a half inch. That's the most it's snowed in... forever.
Lucy Liu? 🙂
She's an actress. (I actually don't know too much about her, except that she was in Kung Fu Panda and Elementary.)
Ooh. 😛 Never seen it. As in the movie. Or the actress, for that matter. 😛 Mwee-mwee-mwee!!!
Sooooooooooooo, anybody else around here....... know how to make a unicorn horn? I've been make-shift assigned to make one. I don't know exactly how that's supposed to work.
I might...but I have a couple questions... How long is this horn supposed to last? (So like should it be made out of paper mache or what?) And is it for a costume? (If so, is it for a horse or a human? 😛 )
You could make a cone out of paper or sew a cone and stuff it, and strap it to (the horse's?) head with an elastic.
Or you could try a paper-mache one...
WARNING: I've never actually made one of these before, but from other props and such that I've made, I'm guessing it should work.
•Take a sheet of thin cardboard and roll it up so one end is pointed but the other isn't. It'll be a long thin cone.
•Trim the end so the horn will stand flat if you put the base on a flat surface.
•Hot-glue the overlap of the horn and secure it until it dries, using duct tape or packing tape.
•When the glue is dried, take off the tape and make some paper-mache.
•Coat the horn with the paper-mache and before it dries, take a string and wind it spiraling along the horn. (What you're doing here is making the twisting dent-like line around the horn.)
•Perfect the shaping with your fingers and let the paper-mache dry. DON'T put any paper-mache across the bottom opening.
•Paint it.
•Measure the length around your horse's head starting at its forehead, then going under its throat latch/jaw, then back again. Make a cloth strap a couple inches longer than that, and hot-glue the ends to the inside of the horn. Let the glue dry.
•Cut the strap in the middle and come up with some way to attach it to itself again (like a safety pin maybe?) and adjust it to the right size for your horse.
Hope that made sense...and hope it'll work...maybe...
😆 You're totally welcome. Let me know if it works, and I might make a how-to video and put it on YouTube. 😛
(By the way, you could probably also use elastic to fasten it instead of cloth...)
😆 Okay. 🙂
