My instrument is called the
Cocamaphone. It is a percussion instrument because you
hit it with the mallet. I made this instrument out of
a shoebox, coca cola bottles, magazines, piano books,
wrapping paper and newspaper.
I first wrapped the bottom of the box with
wrapping paper. Then I wrapped the top of the box with
music sheets. I cut a long strip of cardboard out of
the top, and then placed my bottles inside the
shoebox. The bottles are carefully surrounded by
newspaper so they won't break easily.
Afterwards, I placed individual letters on the
box and glued them on. On my shoebox there are special
decorations such as; music notes, a disco ball, and
other aspects of music.
