Weaving & Crystals to personalise your drum
Weaving
Everyone has their unique way of doing things, this can be reflected in the way a drum is made, people who birth drums with me are encouraged to weave them in a way that has to meaning to them. there is often a consistent start of:
5-pointed star for a 14" drum
7-pointed star for a 18" drum
6 or 5 pointed star for a 22" drum
but there is so much more, best check out a few pics for some inspiration
Crystals, rocks, shells, or other things of meaning
Some have a favorite object that is sacred to them which they want to include in their drum, a few more pics of how this manifests...
