Painted Thunder Drum

Posted: 30 Sep 2009 12:11 PM PDT

These drums may seem familiar if you were out there stranded on an island and find yourself with inhabitants that time forgot. But seriously, they are drums made from Asia using recycled card and wire strings.

They come in various colors and styles and as you would guess, makes some loud noise that should wake the thunder gods up! Use it as an authentic piece of furniture or if you are a musician, drum to the beat via the eco-friendly route.

Price: £11.70
