Making and selling these rustic style drums allows them to earn a living, through selling and trading their cultural hand crafts, and helps them spread the knowledge and traditions of their culture to those who buy them. The drum making knowledge, passed on from generation to generation in these tribes, teaches the drum makers how to design durable and long-lasting ceremonial drums with elements from the Earth and the environment around them such as pine wood and natural rawhide.


Today, American Indian drums are not only used in Indian ceremonies such as Indian drumming groups and as Indian musical instruments, but they are also gaining popularity as pieces of decorative art, instruments used in school music classes and even as canvases for Native American art projects and southwest paintings.

Some types of ceremonial drums are also used as rustic style furniture and western decor, such as the larger powwow drums and pedestal drums that are used as decorative tables.


Today, it is very easy to buy these unique Native American ceremonial drums online and in stores that sell southwestern, western and rustic home decor. However you choose to use your ceremonial drum, whether for drumming groups or in home decorating, you will no doubt be drawn to the rustic charm and Native American style of ceremonial drums.

Craig Chambers is the director of Mission Del Rey and offers free information online about buying ceremonial drums for Native rituals and ceremonies. For more information visit http://www.missiondelrey.com
