I recently made a whole set of unicorn themed birthday party decorations templates for our friend’s daughter’s birthday.
Unicorn unicorn unicorns everywhere. That was our bedroom for a week. It actually turned out quite well with all the different pieces.
One of my favorite things to do is make my own custom birthday decorations. It really adds that extra special touch when there is something personalized and custom to add to the festivities.
All little girls go through a unicorn phase. I have two daughters and one of them is right in the middle of her unicorn obsession.
I just threw my second unicorn birthday party and make yet another round of custom unicorn decorations. I love to buy a bunch of premade stuff from Amazon and then personalize it to add that extra special touch.

There are lots of different ways you can make this. I chose to just use the plain base for the letters and then had end unicorn pieces. You can make the letters on the unicorns as well.

It was a bit of work to assemble everything but it wasn’t too bad. I already had all the paper flowers sitting around so it was just a matter of gluing everything together. All of my free rolled flower SVG templates are here.

Unicorn Thank you Tags SVG Cut outs
I used my Cricut to write the thank you note which took way longer than I anticipated. In the future, I would just print and then cut the thing. I also just stapled the ribbon on but a glue gun works too.
