Drum Making Supplies For Sale

Looking to craft your own sacred drum? I offer a carefully curated selection of drum making supplies for those who already have the knowledge and tools to create their own medicine drum.

All hides and materials are ethically sourced, with priority given to UK suppliers wherever possible. When UK sourcing is unavailable, I work with trusted international partners:

Horse, cow, and buffalo hides are sourced from the USA.
Reindeer hides come from traditional Sámi sources in Norway.

The hoops are partly pre-made, then lovingly hand-finished by me with care and intention.

Please Note:

You must know how to make a drum and have all the required tools!
If you’re looking for a complete ready-to-go kit with step-by-step guidance, please visit my Etsy shop where I offer kits that include a tutorial video.
