16-inch Kangaroo & Willow Medicine Drum

Nobody ever lay on their deathbed, regretting they didn’t laugh more and work harder. Life is meant for living, loving, and relishing every moment. In this short journey, it’s crucial to release the trivial worries, reconnect with your essence, let loose, and savour the joy of existence. And if anyone dares to criticize your pursuit of happiness, they’re better off elsewhere. 

Individually hand-painted with Annie Sloan’s toxin-free chalk paint in ‘Old Violet’ (on the outer hoop), this exquisite creation bears the heartfelt message, ‘Joy is my birthright,’ elegantly handwritten on the internal frame in the same old violet hue. Adorned with a regal purple ostrich feather, the drum’s skin is meticulously tensioned to the hoop using synthetic sinew in shades of purple, magenta, and red. Completing this harmonious design are radiant purple Swarovski crystals delicately placed at the end of the outer weaving.

Description

At Blind Kat Creative, crafting our drums is a sacred journey, guided by love and respect for nature and the spirit. Each drum, consciously handmade by Kat, is born in a cleansed and sacred space. During this profound process, we extend gratitude and honour to the animals, wood, and the future player. It’s a harmonious dance of reverence that infuses each drum with a unique soul.
Please note that since we use natural materials, such as hides, feathers, and crystals, every instrument is one-of-a-kind. This means that the patterning may vary slightly from the photographs, making your drum as unique as you are.

Mallets are available separately to enhance your drumming experience.

A quick note of caution: We cherish the safety of all, so please don’t leave children unattended with our drums, as small items could become loose during play.
