At the beginning - sorry for my english. Honestly, I never use that language so I can make some funny mistakes or be hard to understand. Also - today I'm pretty lazy and having no willingness for checking the dictionary :) I made this drum kit as a gift for my friend, who always wanted to play drums, but had too small flat to keep that instrument. She had birthday, so I made the tiniest one I could to give her a chance for being a drummer - the kit issmall enough to place it on your hand.

Things I'm gonna use. Everthing is founded in my house, I didn't have to buy anything.
Draw a circle with calipers on yellow paper (diameter +- 3cm)...
...cut and glue it - do it twice, these will be cymbals.
Then cover the circles with 2 or more coats of nail polish - I used a silver one at first, and then the gold. Make a small hole in the middle of cymbal (for wire).
Then draw and cut a white cylinder of paper. This is a model of my sketch, which I used during that step.
It will be bass drum. Glue it...
...and paint with the red nail polish. Do it twice to make the colour intense. Let it dry.
Then add the wires and drum sticks made of toothpicks. I also sewed the bass drum to make it more durable and drew a logo. Enjoy!
