Shaman Drums and Shaman Rattles

Drums and rattles are magical creations and represent many cultures. Drum making and rattle making are ancient and worldwide traditions. Beating a drum or shaking a rattle recalls the primitive to us.

I make ceremonial drums and ceremonial rattles to honor the animals and trees that have given to us. I utilize the gifts of Bear, Buffalo, Elk, Horse, Moose, and Wolf.

Being a drummaker and a rattlemaker has been one of my greatest rewards. I have done this for more than ten years.

I make drums and rattles with respect for the animals and trees who have given their gifts.
I only use the "leavings" -- no animal was killed just for its hide. From each hide,
I cut drumskins, rattle heads and finally drum lacing; nothing is wasted.
I make my drums and rattles with prayer and ceremony.
