Stone/Crystal/Geode Hand Drums

Drums are vibration driven as are stones. Different pieces have different resonance - whether musically or spiritually. If you are in tune to such things (not all are), combining these forces can result in a spiritually uplifting, magickal instrument.

Taking my laced cedar hand drum and adding geodes, quartz crystals, agates, hematite - wahtever works for you - can create a truly personalized piece for your meditation or healing practices.

The Different Drum tends to have a couple on hand at all times, but creating one just for you is really the way to go!
