Jewel Covered Unicorn Ornament
Updated January 25, 2021 
From the blogger: "This is a fun way to easily decorate an acrylic ornament. The benefit of acrylic shapes are that they look pretty from the 'backside' so no matter how it is hanging there is no bad view. Of course you could also embellish over fun foam, cork, or wooden shapes. If you love to recycle & repurpose, consider using the transparent packaging from a bakery or deli container. After a quick wash, the clear plastic is easily cut into simple shapes with household scissors. This is a quick project that can be completed in a few hours. "
