Christmas is already a magical time of year—but add unicorns, sparkling snowflakes, colorful presents, and twinkling Christmas trees, and things become even more enchanting.
These Christmas Unicorn Coloring Pages bring together two things kids love: the wonder of Christmas and the make-believe world of unicorns.
From adorable unicorns holding shiny Christmas ornaments to playful unicorns tangled in garlands, decorating trees, sitting among presents, and popping out of Christmas stockings, there are plenty of festive scenes waiting to be filled with color.
Best of all, unicorns give you complete freedom when choosing your colors.
Pink mane? Perfect.
Rainbow tail? Absolutely.
Golden horn covered in glitter? Even better.
So grab the crayons, colored pencils, markers, or gel pens and get ready to create a Christmas wonderland filled with unicorn magic. 🦄🎄✨
🦄 Magical Christmas Unicorns to Color
Unicorns belong in a world where almost anything is possible, which makes them especially fun to color.
There are no rules about what a Christmas unicorn should look like.
You might create a snowy white unicorn with a shimmering silver mane.
Or perhaps yours is pale pink with a rainbow tail and golden horn.
Maybe your Christmas unicorn is bright turquoise with purple hooves.
Children can experiment with combinations such as:
- Pink and lavender
- Aqua and purple
- White and gold
- Mint green and blush pink
- Silver and icy blue
- Red and green
- Rainbow colors
Every unicorn can be completely different.
🎄 Unicorns Decorating the Christmas Tree
Decorating the Christmas tree is one of the most familiar traditions of the season—and apparently unicorns enjoy it too.
A unicorn standing beside a Christmas tree creates all kinds of coloring possibilities.
Begin with the tree itself.
Use traditional forest green, or experiment with something less conventional such as pale mint, snowy white, silver, or even pink.
Then decorate the branches with:
- Colorful baubles
- Christmas lights
- Stars
- Candy canes
- Garlands
- Bows
- Snowflakes
Finally, choose colors for your unicorn that either coordinate with the tree or stand out completely.
A snowy white unicorn beside a dark green Christmas tree can look wonderfully traditional.
A rainbow unicorn beside a pastel tree creates something much more whimsical.
Both are perfect.
🔴 Unicorns Holding Christmas Baubles
Christmas ornaments bring bright little pops of color to any coloring page.
Some Christmas unicorn scenes show playful unicorns holding baubles as though they’re helping prepare for the holidays.
This is a wonderful opportunity to experiment with different ornament colors.
Try:
- Classic red
- Emerald green
- Bright gold
- Silver
- Hot pink
- Turquoise
- Purple
- Royal blue
If several ornaments appear on the page, make every one different.
You could even add small patterns inside them.
Draw:
- Stripes
- Dots
- Stars
- Hearts
- Snowflakes
- Zigzags
Metallic or glitter pens can make Christmas baubles look especially festive.
🎁 Unicorns Surrounded by Christmas Presents
A unicorn sitting among Christmas presents feels like something straight out of a magical Christmas story.
Gift boxes are particularly fun to color because each one can have completely different wrapping paper.
Try a red present with a gold ribbon.
Next to it, make a turquoise box with white snowflakes.
Add a pink package covered in purple stars.
Then perhaps a green present tied with a giant silver bow.
The more different colors you use, the more cheerful the pile of presents becomes.
Children can even imagine what’s hidden inside each gift.
Maybe there’s a new unicorn saddle.
Perhaps one contains a box of enchanted candy.
Or maybe Santa has delivered a huge supply of rainbow glitter.
❄️ Christmas Unicorns in the Snow
Snowflakes make Christmas unicorn pictures feel even more magical.
Imagine a unicorn standing outside while soft snow drifts through the winter sky.
Snow doesn’t have to be plain white.
Use pale shades of:
- Ice blue
- Silver
- Lavender
- Light gray
- Pale turquoise
Leave some areas white and add just a little shading around the edges.
For a nighttime winter scene, create a deep navy or purple sky and surround your unicorn with bright white or silver snowflakes.
Add a few stars and suddenly your coloring page feels like Christmas Eve.
🎀 The Unicorn Tangled in Christmas Garland
Sometimes Christmas decorating doesn’t quite go according to plan.
A unicorn tangled up in Christmas garland makes a wonderfully silly holiday coloring scene.
Perhaps the unicorn was trying to help decorate.
Perhaps it walked underneath the Christmas lights at exactly the wrong moment.
Or maybe it simply decided that garland makes excellent unicorn jewelry.
Whatever happened, this kind of picture is perfect for bright colors.
Make the garland green and decorate it with colorful lights.
Try alternating:
Red.
Yellow.
Blue.
Pink.
Purple.
Green.
Add sparkling ornaments and perhaps a shiny bow or two.
The more colorful the tangle becomes, the better.
🧦 A Unicorn in a Christmas Stocking
Finding a unicorn in your Christmas stocking would certainly make Christmas morning memorable.
A tiny unicorn peeking out from a festive stocking is an especially cute coloring scene for children.
Start with the stocking.
You might make it:
- Red and white
- Green and gold
- Pink and silver
- Blue and white
- Purple and turquoise
- Rainbow-striped
Then give the unicorn a matching or contrasting color scheme.
Don’t forget the horn.
Gold and silver are classic choices, but rainbow stripes can make a unicorn horn even more magical.
You could also draw additional candy canes, presents, toys, or ornaments around the stocking.
🌈 Create a Rainbow Christmas Unicorn
If there’s ever a character that deserves every color in the crayon box, it’s a unicorn.
Try giving the mane different colored sections:
Red.
Orange.
Yellow.
Green.
Blue.
Purple.
Then repeat those colors in the tail.
The unicorn’s body could remain white so the mane stands out, or it could be another bright color entirely.
Add a sparkling gold or silver horn and colorful Christmas decorations around it.
Before long, you’ll have a Christmas unicorn that looks as though it wandered straight out of a rainbow.

Sometimes it’s easier to start when you already have a few colors in mind.
Here are some combinations to try.

💕 Pastel Christmas Unicorn

Pastel colors work beautifully with adorable unicorn characters.
✨ Make the Unicorn Horn Sparkle
The horn is one of the most important parts of any unicorn.
Make it stand out.
Try gold or silver metallic pencil.
Use glitter gel pens.
Color each stripe a different rainbow shade.
Or shade the horn from dark purple at the bottom to pale pink at the top.
Children can also draw little sparkles around the horn to make it look enchanted.
A few stars, dots, and tiny snowflakes can create the impression that Christmas magic is swirling around the unicorn.
💇 Colorful Unicorn Manes and Tails
The mane and tail are perfect places to experiment with unusual color combinations.
Instead of choosing one color, blend several together.
Try:
Pink + Purple + Blue
for a dreamy magical look.
Red + Green + Gold
for a Christmas-themed unicorn.
Blue + Silver + White
for an icy winter unicorn.
Pink + Mint + Lavender
for a soft pastel look.
Or simply color every strand differently.
Long unicorn manes are also a great place for older children to practice blending colored pencils.
Start with a darker shade near the roots and gradually use lighter pressure toward the tips.
🖍️ Best Supplies for Christmas Unicorn Coloring
Almost any coloring supplies can work beautifully.
Crayons are perfect for younger children and larger areas.
Colored pencils are useful for manes, tails, ornaments, presents, and other detailed sections.
Markers create bold, bright colors that work especially well with kawaii unicorn designs.
Fine-tip markers help with smaller decorations.
Gel pens are ideal for stars, Christmas lights, snowflakes, and tiny details.
Metallic pens can turn horns, ornaments, ribbons, and stars into shiny accents.
Glitter pens may be the ultimate unicorn coloring supply.
After all, Christmas unicorns practically demand a little sparkle.

There isn’t much preparation required.
Print the pictures.
Put out the crayons.
And start coloring.
They can be used for:
- Christmas parties
- Classroom activities
- Snow days

🎉 Create a Christmas Unicorn Coloring Table
Planning a Christmas party for children?
Set up a simple unicorn coloring station.
Place several different pictures on the table and fill containers with:
- Crayons
- Colored pencils
- Washable markers
- Gel pens
- Christmas stickers
If you don’t mind a little sparkle everywhere, add glitter pens too.
Children can decorate their favorite unicorn while waiting for other activities to begin.
A unicorn-themed coloring station could also work beautifully for a December birthday party.
✂️ Turn Finished Unicorn Pages Into Christmas Decorations
Don’t hide those beautiful unicorns away when the coloring is finished.
Turn them into part of your Christmas décor.
Finished pages can be:
- Hung on the refrigerator
- Displayed on a Christmas art wall
- Added to a holiday scrapbook
- Framed for a child’s bedroom
- Displayed in a classroom
- Given to grandparents
- Turned into homemade cards
- Used for Christmas party decorations
If several children color different unicorns, display them together and create an entire magical Christmas herd.
🎄 Create a Magical Unicorn Christmas Scene
A printed coloring picture doesn’t have to be the end of the artwork.
Add your own background.
Draw:
- Christmas trees
- Snow-covered mountains
- Stars
- Presents
- Snowflakes
- Candy canes
- Gingerbread houses
- Christmas lights
- A snowy castle
Perhaps your unicorn lives in a magical Christmas kingdom.
Maybe Santa’s workshop is just over the hill.
Or perhaps the unicorn is one of Santa’s secret Christmas helpers.
The possibilities are endless.
🏰 Build a Christmas Unicorn World
If you have several coloring pages, combine them to create a bigger story.
One unicorn might be decorating the Christmas tree.
Another is delivering presents.
One has become tangled in garland.
Another is hiding inside a stocking.
Children can give each unicorn a name and decide how all the characters fit together.
Perhaps they all live in a magical place called Christmas Unicorn Village.
There might be rainbow-covered houses, peppermint trees, sparkling snow, and a castle made entirely from gingerbread.
Sometimes the stories children invent while coloring are just as much fun as the pictures themselves.
💌 Turn Unicorn Art Into Christmas Cards
Christmas unicorns make adorable homemade holiday cards.
Color the unicorn, carefully cut around the design, and attach it to folded cardstock.
Then add a cheerful message.
Try:
Have a Magical Christmas!
Wishing You a Sparkly Christmas!
Merry Christmas, You Magical Unicorn!
May Your Christmas Be Filled With Magic!
Children can give the finished cards to grandparents, teachers, friends, cousins, or neighbors.
⭐ Add Extra Sparkle
Christmas and unicorns have something very important in common:
Both benefit from sparkle.
Add glittery details to:
- Unicorn horns
- Christmas ornaments
- Stars
- Snowflakes
- Gift ribbons
- Christmas lights
- Manes and tails
Metallic gold and silver can also create beautiful highlights.
If you don’t have glitter pens, simply draw lots of tiny stars and sparkle shapes around the unicorn.
Sometimes a few little details can make the whole picture feel magical.
🎅 Imagine the Unicorn Meeting Santa
What would happen if a unicorn met Santa Claus?
Maybe Santa needs help delivering presents.
Perhaps one of the reindeer has the night off and the unicorn joins the sleigh team.
Maybe Santa discovers a tiny unicorn hiding in his sack of toys.
Children can invent their own Christmas unicorn adventures while coloring.
Ask questions such as:
- What is the unicorn’s name?
- Where does it live?
- What does it want for Christmas?
- Does it know Santa?
- Can it fly?
- What magical powers does its horn have?
- What would it give Santa for Christmas?
There are no wrong answers.
❤️ A Little Extra Christmas Magic
Christmas coloring doesn’t need to be complicated.
Sometimes the best activities are the simplest ones: a comfortable table, a pile of crayons, some Christmas music, and a picture waiting to come alive.
Christmas unicorn coloring pages make that simple activity feel just a little more magical.
Color your unicorn pink.
Make it rainbow-colored.
Give it a golden horn.
Surround it with purple presents, turquoise Christmas trees, sparkling snowflakes, and candy-colored ornaments.
There are no rules in a Christmas unicorn world.
So choose your favorite picture, grab your brightest colors, and let your imagination gallop straight into Christmas. 🦄🎄🌈✨
