Help me design a room!

[Onyx]

So I want to make a Coast Salish (Native American) inspired room. (Also don't get mad at me, I'm Puyallup lol) So far I've thought of
Having the cabin wall to make it feel like a longhouse
Not sure about cabin rug? I want to stick with the wood theme though
The 4 totem poles (even though that's more of a northern thing it works)
Incense burner
Wooden bear
Maybe bonfire?
Refurbished cedar bathtub? Maybe marble if it looks better? (Reminds me of the Sol duc hot springs lol)
Fish on a board the pink one so it looks like salmon
Kayak because it's sort of like a canoe? Just BRIGHT yellow lol
MAYBE a sleeping bag cause it vaguely resembles a cradle board

Trying to figure out what part of the fish set I should do?
Maybe I should do villager pictures??
Not sure if I wanna stick with the cabin theme either?
Do y'all know if I can refurbish the mountain to have snow on it? That mountain is GREEN! whyyy greenn

I think it's great that you want to design a room based on your heritage. I wish their were more items in the game from different cultures.

Please take everything I suggest with a grain of salt as I am not Native American and just did a quick Google search of the tribe(s) you referred to, so if it's all wrong I don't mean any offense.

I saw that the women did a lot of basketry, so maybe you could incorporate the veggie basket and the brown pot refurbished as mesh.

I also read that at one point they cultivated mushrooms so you could possibly bring in some mushrooms to use as decoration.

There's also the tapestry you get from Gulliver. I know it's from Peru, but it might work.

I don't know if there are instruments in the game that might represent your culture. Maybe one of the drums could work?

Thank you! Awesome ideas, didn't even think about baskets (not sure why probably because they have stuff in them and that's the focus of the item in game lol)
I think djimbe drum might work, it reminds me of one I've seen at a pow wow that a lot of people sat around one and drummed together, normally I think of the handheld one's my dad has hanging up that there's really nothing similar in AC
Thank you!!!

Ooh yeah I love this! I?m Ojibwe though so a lot more of our stuff is floral and beading and such. Lots of flower patterns and jingle dresses!
I?m totally gonna start making a list on MoriDB or Native ideas and share it with you

Edit: I didn't fully read the post. I think your idea sounds awesome!
