Make an instrument called an "ugly stick".  It is neat.  It is easy to make and you just use stuff you have around the house, and it will probably be the most unique instrument anyone will make.\n\nDuring the past two decades, the ugly stick has become especially popular on the Southern Shore of the Avalon Peninsula in Newfoundland. It is said that this stick, a musical instrument that makes a raucous noise, got its name because it is downright ugly. \n\nTo make one, purchase a dowel about 4 feet long from the hardware store or find a broom handle or straight stick. Nail an old boot to the bottom of the dowel. At the top of the dowel, nail a 2 litre empty juice tin. Along the sides of the dowel, loosely nail lots of pop or beer caps so that they make a jingling sound. There you have your ugly stick! \n\nThere are two ways to use your ugly stick to make music. It is banged against the floor to the beat of the music. Or, if you wish, find a shorter stick, about a foot long. This second stick is used to hit the ugly stick, running it along the bottle caps and then occasionally hitting the tin can at the top for variety, all the while banging the ugly and jingling stick against the floor to the rhythm of the music. \n\nThese links should help you.  Have fun!

Make one yourself.  Use MS Paint or if you're really feeling fancy, Photoshop.  Of course, then you'll have to host it somewhere...

rumkin.com has instructions on how to make your own (it is really simple and you can use any sound or song off the net or your own collection) they also have some free ringers that other people post.  The only catch is that you must have internet access on your phone because you upload the song via computer and then download it to your phone.

You could try lots of things, like:\nbeads\nfoam balls with pieces of wood to hold the sides together\npaper mache \nclay \n\nReally anything that you can mold or put together would work.

Just play the notes that are there.  If you know chords, you can add them with your left hand and improvise.  Add harmony notes to the single notes for riffs or variety. \nA single note tabulature can be a starting point using that melody to create your own music.
