Is That a Canoe in Your Living Room?

"Yes, it is a canoe. Do you love it?"

"You know, I really do!"

Home furnishing accessories come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and styles; modern, classic, rustic and in the case of our mini birch canoe, irreverent. The detailing is fantastic and the craftsmanship is top-notch. It is fun. It is a conversation starter. But, it is also a well-made piece that might just stay in your family home for years.

Keep in mind that "mini" is a relative term. This is a not a china cabinet canoe, it is more than six and half feet long. They will ask, but don't let the kids take it for a spin around the pond. This vessel isn't caulked with pine gum like the Native American relics that inspired it. What it can do is accent your rustic themed room as a stand alone piece or as storage for displayable objects that don't fit into the dimensions of standard shelving.
