Are you ready for Halloween? If your house needs a little more unicorn spirit, this easy unicorn pumpkin craft is for you!
This Halloween ASMR DIY video combines relaxing, soft-spoken ASMR with a craft tutorial.
Usually, unicorn pumpkin crafts involve actual pumpkin (or fake pumpkin) decorating. This unicorn pumpkin DIY is different; it’s made of cardboard.
You can use these pumpkins as wall or door decorations, place them over the window, etc.

🎃 Halloween Unicorn Pumpkin Craft – Step-by-Step 🎃
Step 1: Cut a Pumpkin Shape Out of the Cardboard
It’s a good idea to sketch the pumpkin shape with a pencil on the cardboard first. So, draw a pumpkin shape on the cardboard, but with a unicorn horn and ears.
Next, cut the pumpkin shape out of the cardboard.
Then, use the cardboard pumpkin as a model to draw the same shape on the orange cardboard. It is a good idea to draw on the reverse side, so that pencil marks won’t show later.
Next, cut the pumpkin shape out of the orange cardboard as well.
Step 2: Glue the Cardboard Pumpkins Together
Now, you have two identical pumpkin shapes. Glue them together.
Step 3: Cut the Witch Hat out of the Black Foam Padding
Now, you can let the glue dry. In the meanwhile, you can cut the witch hat out of the black foam padding. You can also use black cardboard for the hat.
You can tie a ribbon around the hat as decoration.
Step 4: Decorate the Unicorn’s Horn and Ears
Cut two small triangle-shaped pieces of black duck tape to decorate the unicorn pumpkin’s ears. You can also use black paper or fabric.
Cover the unicorn’s horn with black duck tape as well.
You can make decorative stripes on the unicorn’s horn with the golden glitter washi tape.
Step 5: Draw the Unicorn’s Eyes
Draw the unicorn’s eyes with a black marker or calligraphy pen. You can draw sleepy eyes or smiling eyes. Or you can draw one of each as I did in the video; now the unicorn pumpkin looks like it’s winking.
Step 6: Glue the Witch Hat on the Unicorn Pumpkin’s Head
Now, glue the witch hat on the unicorn pumpkin’s head.
Step 7: Make a Hanging Loop for the Unicorn Pumpkin
If you want to hang the unicorn pumpkin decoration on the wall, make a hanging loop out of yarn. You can attach the loop on the reverse side of the pumpkin with duct tape.
