I made the horse into a unicorn. I used the same pattern for the ear and I created a horn from it, using gold thread I stitched around the horn to create spiral. I also used the gold thread along with the white yarn in the mane.

Hey, I love to crochet and I love fantasy, medieval type things, so this seemed really cool to me.
Did have to add that for any Harry Potter fans, I thought if that lid was brown it would like just like Hagrid's cabin.
