With the holidays only a few short days away, you might be panicking about what to put on top of your tree. Don't worry about it — we've got you covered!

Our friends Jamie Shannon — who you may know as the creator of Nanalan' (warning: link contains swearing, in case you're about to try this craft with an impressionable young child) — and emerging artist Persephone are showing you how to create a magical shimmering unicorn horn, step by step. From sculpting your Model Magic to dusting it with glitter, you'll be transported to another world as you lovingly craft your unicorn horn and place it delicately atop your tree.

It's also just really cool to make, and we give holiday thanks for this artist team for showing us how to make it.
