She reminds\u00a0me everyday that\u00a0a\u00a0unicorn is special and magical &#8211; so\u00a0unicorns are always magically flying around in\u00a0my head. I had this project in mind for awhile and wanted to create just the\u00a0<em>right<\/em> tote bag for her. I&#8217;ve seen unicorn tote bags in the past, but I wanted a subtle unicorn pattern that wasn&#8217;t too flamboyant. The unicorns are hand painted with acrylic paint and metallic paint. I waited 24 hours for it to dry, and first\u00a0turned the tote bag\u00a0inside out and then ironed the fabric on low setting.<\/p>\n<p>To add some fun, I made a unicorn keychain made with\u00a0perler beads. Playing around with perler beads on the pegboards are really fun, but this time I used\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/perler\/id574503255?mt=8\">this app<\/a>, Perler,\u00a0to create my unicorn. It lets me create a better pattern and I loved the outcome of the project. If you plan to create something with perler beads, it is definitely worth a try!<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"food_title\">Materials Used<\/span><br \/>\nUnicorn Tote Bag &#8211;<br \/>\nAcrylic Paint<br \/>\nMetallic Paint<br \/>\nPlain Tote Bag<br \/>\nIron<\/p>\n<p>Unicorn Keychain &#8211;<br \/>\nPerler Beads<br \/>\nPegboard<br \/>\nKeychain<br \/>\nPerler App<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As most girls do, my daughter loves unicorns.
