Commission A Drum
There is nothing I love more than birthing a drum, and I would be delighted to create one to commission for you. You are welcome to have as much or as little input into the design specifics as you like. You can make choices regarding how you would like your drum to be prepared, or I can use the Spirit of your Drum to guide me, as I will be calling it in through ceremony before I begin working. You can:
-
Specify which (if any) crystals and herbs you would like your drum skin to infuse with as it soaks overnight, as these amplify the energy of your drum.
-
Choose exactly which drum handle you would like to create- the cross, the trispiral, the hoop with St Brigids cross in the centre, or something entirely different. Crystals and leather binding are also optional.
-
Tell me whether you would like symbols or markings on the inside hoop of the drum, made by pyrography or paint.
-
Whether you would like the grain bringing up with homemade beeswax polish, or whether you would like the wood plain.
-
Choose which wood and which colour leather you would like the beater to be made of.
Each drum will be made in ceremony, and you will receive an account of its creation story. As you connect with your drum, you will find it has it's own personality; this usually shines through during the creation of the drum (and indeed, even when I am preparing the deerskin into rawhide!).

Commission A Rattle
Rattles are beautiful tools, which are excellent at clearing spaces, as well as connecting us with the spirit world. They are also very portable, and a good option to take with you if you cannot carry a drum.
I take commissions to make rattles, and as with the drums above, you are welcome to have as much or as little input into the design specifics as you like; I can be fully guided by the Spirit of your Rattle. You can make choices regarding how you would like your rattle to be prepared:
-
Specify which (if any) crystals and herbs you would like your rattle skin to infuse with as it soaks overnight, as these amplify the energy of your rattle.
-
Choose the shape and size of your rattle, and whether you would like coloured stitching.
-
Tell me which wood and which colour leather you would like the handle to be made of, and whether you would like any fur trim.
-
Whether you would like particular stones, herbs or crystals inside your rattles.
-
Decide if you would like an image painted on the rattle.
Each rattle will be made in ceremony, and you will receive an account of its creation story; your rattle will have it's own personality which will have been emerging through it's creation
