These cute unicorn favor boxes can be made in just a few simple steps. Once you're finished, stuff them with all of your favorite spa party supplies. A few of our favorites are hair ties, unicorn DIY sleep masks, unicorn poop candy, a bath bomb and a sweet treat.

Attach the tissue paper flowers to the white favor boxes by tying the yarn through the holes and tying a knot to secure it. Once your flowers are secure you can add the unicorn eyelashes with a thick black marker.
