Fat Unicorn Magnet #04

Description

When life gives you glittery pink paint– you paint unicorns! 😁

It was inevitable that this little gal would gallop into existence on the workbench, but I was as surprised as anyone else that she showed up so quickly. Pink isn’t normally one of my favorite colors, but she pulls it off with pizazz!

She is coated with several layers of gloss sealer and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth… but she probably shouldn’t go for a swim!

The Fat Unicorns are a resculpt of my Fat Pony mold and are hand-cast in resin from a handmade silicone mold of my own sculpture. I’m still learning how to make molds and how to resin cast, so things aren’t perfect (yet!) and I’ve tried to show off any flaws in the photos.

The magnets used are small round ceramic magnets and they are strong enough to hold up paper on a swinging door, but not cardstock. If you would like a stronger neodymium magnet instead, convo me for a custom pony! 🙂

Unicorns are roughly 2.25 inches from nose to tail and 1.5 inches from hoof to mane. This little gal was cast using the magnet leveling jig and has a slightly raised magnet and a nice flat back.

Fat Unicorns come in a small plastic bag with a handmade tag, but you can add an optional handmade cardstock gift box. They make a cute little gift or stocking stuffer for a horse-crazy human!(Her bag tag got a little squished while in storage so if you’d like, I’d be happy to stamp you up a fresh one.)
