Description
I did not make the drum itself. This is a djembe drum that I bought for my best friend for her birthday. However, I did design and hand carve the horse and dragonfly symbol into it for her.Sorry it's not the best grouping of photos either. I messed up the colours on the bottom right especially, but you get the point I'm sure.
I'll have to get pictures of my own djembe one of these years too.

That's amazing! The personaly touch is lovely, and it really looks professional too!

Thanks Wolfdog.
hee, I also hid the drum and set up a whole birthday scavenger hunt for her to find it. Slightly less than professional perhaps. XD

I loved the dark wood stain on this particular drum; part of why I picked it out.
The placement of the design and some of the final changes to it were in fact inspired by the surface itself. The wood grain and such.

Thanks. Though this really sucked to carve, I realized I loved the result.
So of course I went ahead and carved into my own drum as well.

the carvings are great : ). my mom has one of these drums, but its so old that the skin on top has rotted away.. or decomposed or whatever. when i was a kid it still had the skin, but its gone now.

she should find a new drum that can actually be played! I love them.
Djembes are especially fun, or at least I think so.
