CustomMade Curator: Drum Side Table

HuffPost Social Reading

If you thought drums were only for making music, you're wrong! But, it's okay because we did too. That is, until CustomMade Artisan Tim Sway of Tim Sway Perspectives opened our eyes with this innovative side table.

Made from a salvaged bass drum and used drumsticks, this table is definitely something unique to behold. We love the juxtaposition of the parallel lines in the top against the organic curve of the base, and the extra spot to store books is a huge plus. With a nice modern aesthetic, we think this table would look great in anyone's home -- even a non-music lover!

I've seen lobster traps and a wooden door from an old ship made into coffee tables. The trap was very wide, so it would require a good amount of space. The door from the ship was cool, it had a lot of character.
