PIECES of card were adorned with glitter glue and sequins before being rolled up into magical unicorn horns at a special event to kick off half term.

Blackwell’s on Broad Street opened its doors to young unicorn-lovers for the workshop on Saturday morning.

It started with a reading from book Unicorn Expert, written by Sophie Johnson, before the youngsters got the chance to make their own unicorn horns.

It was one of the free events this week happening at Blackwell’s.

Next week, a similar event will be held on the theme of mermaids.

All the materials to make a sparkly mermaid tail will be provided.
