DESIGN TIPS FOR YOUR NEW HOME lamps, vases or photos … much more welcoming than the back of a loveseat! Hang art where you will enjoy it. So many times, I see beautiful art that is hung too high. It makes sense to hang photos and paintings at eye level in areas where you’ll be walking and standing – like the hallway and kitchen. But in your living and dining rooms, consider positioning things a little lower where you can appreciate them while seated.
5 TIPS FOR CREATING BEAUTIFUL LIVING SPACES By: Kent Ricks, Interior Designer and Owner of Curate Company
As a designer, I love helping people make their living spaces feel perfect. I understand that moving into a new space can feel overwhelming - how do you make all your favorite furniture work in new rooms? Where do you begin? Here are five of my favorite tips to help you make great choices for your home. Make furniture placement decisions from the entry vantage. What do your guests see when they enter your room? Invite them in with a thoughtful layout. For example: walking into the back of a sofa is not exactly warm and friendly. But if it’s your only option, consider a piece with an interesting shape or place a sofa table behind with
Great color choices take time. Find inspiration in a favorite piece of art or a rug – something that can ground the room and provide aesthetic cohesion. Pick up some small sample cans of paint. You’ll want to apply a nice big patch of color on your wall and watch how it looks in the sunrise, a foggy day, a sunny afternoon, a brilliant sunset. Take time to understand how it behaves in your space. You’ve found the right shade when you’ve spent time with it and fallen in love. Lighting sets the mood. Instead of bright light coming from ceiling fixtures, consider using floor and table lamps to create a more intimate environment. These
days you can easily swap out your basic light switch with a smart dimmer for about $25 dollars. And if you have the opportunity to provide input when your electrical is being installed, have outlets installed in the floor so that table lamps can be lit on end or sofa tables if placed in the middle of a room. Whether you're installing entirely new light fixtures or just upgrading your bulbs to eco-friendly and stylish LED Edisons, some simple lighting updates can give you amazing impact for the cost. Wallpaper is back! It's not just about color, but the visual tactile texture can be more compelling than just painted walls. Instead of a simple color accent wall, you can use wallpaper with big bold patterns to create a gorgeous piece of art. Embossed, linen, or grass cloth wallpapers provide more simplicity, yet still give a visual depth that is stunning. Dining rooms and bathrooms are great candidates for wallpaper - it makes a room feel special. And it's not limited to just walls … lining the back of a bookshelf or china hutch is a great way to inject color into a room in an interesting way. The application of wallpaper on ceilings is unexpected and interesting. You might want to consider enveloping your room with a beautiful wallpaper pattern. Kent Ricks, Owner and Lead Designer at Curate Company, earned a Masters Degree in Interior Design from Utah State University. He believes that excellent interior design can be affordable and attainable for everyone.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE ACTIVITIES Passing out care packages to the homeless of Salt Lake City
JOYSHAW meet
outdoor enthusiast, thrift store director, wife and mother of three
Local resident and thrift store director, Joy Shaw, shares her story and some local tips for visitors In 1987, I was offered a scholarship in the Department of Theatre Arts at Utah State University. I accepted because I fell in love with the close-knit community of the University’s small campus. Later, I changed my major to sociology to understand social problems, and I graduated with a Bachelor of Science.
I wanted to work with at-risk youth after I graduated. That’s when I saw an advertisement for a job as the director of Somebody’s Attic and knew I needed to apply for it. Somebody’s Attic is a nonprofit thrift store that provides long-term, private funding for Citizens Against Physical & Sexual Abuse (CAPSA) and the Family Support Center. I got the job and, ever since then, Somebody’s Attic has felt like a family to me. Working there has taught me that it is a privilege to work with people who freely share their goods, time and talents to assist in the cause of domestic abuse prevention.
Although most of my previous work experience was in retail management,

churches and government leaders. Thad Box and Ann Jurinak donated equity to our building in Logan, which gave the store a permanent home. Through the generosity and commitment of donors, volunteers and employees, Somebody’s Attic has thrived for the past 35 years. The average annual cash donation for Somebody’s Attic has risen from $12,000 in 1987 to $110,000 in 2018. This unexpected generosity by the people of Cache Valley has allowed us to bless the lives of people in need right here in our own community. With 2020

the tremendous support we have experienced over the last 14 years, we anticipate cash donations to continue to increase. Somebody’s Attic also received a grant of around $30,000 this year from the Downtown Facade Program of Logan. All of my daughters, Shelby, Sadie and Sara, volunteer for Somebody’s Attic. Shelby is currently attending Utah State University, while Sadie plans on attending there in the fall. I enjoy spending time with my amazing girls at the thrift store. Working at Somebody’s Attic has led me to really love Cache Valley! The wetlands, mountains and meadows here bring me much joy. I love to run, kayak, paddle board, snowboard, mountain bike, and bird watch here as often as possible because nature is balm for the mind, body and spirit. The best advice I can give someone is to be generous with your time and actively engaged in a good cause. Small acts of kindness are powerful and have the ability to bind a community, making it stronger and more resilient in the face of challenges.

Original Taberancle construction and design
The Logan Tabernacle, the majestic centerpiece of downtown Logan, has stood at the center of town for over 128 years and represents the unity and spirit of the people of Cache Valle The construction of the tabernacle began in 1864 and took about 27 years to complete. The basement of the Logan Tabernacle was completed first. This is where ward and stake meetings were held while the building was still being completed. Soon after the basement’s finalization, the exterior walls were completed in 1877. This is when the tabernacle faced a delay as workers left to work on the Logan Utah Temple. Work resumed when the main assembly hall was finished in 1881. The Logan Tabernacle was dedicated in 1891 by Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints President Wilford Woodruff. In 1908, the Great Organ was installed into the Logan Tabernacle. Excellent care and attention has been given to the Great Organ, contributing to the love and appreciation for the instrument by Cache Valley residents today.

Bear Lake, often called the “Caribbean of the Rockies” for its gorgeous, turquoise water, is a natural freshwater lake split between Utah and Idaho. Surrounding the lake are many opportunities for family-friendly fun, along with the chance to enjoy the beautiful scenery while getting away from the stress and busyness of life. Everyone can find something enjoyable to do at Bear Lake.
Those who love the outdoors will enjoy the many activities that can be done around Bear Lake. Take a swing at the Bear Lake Golf Course or the Montpelier City Municipal Golf Course. Save gas money by staying for the weekend at the Birch Campground, Big Creek Campground, Cottonwood Campground or South Eden Campground. Visit the under-
ground Minnetonka Cave, which will give you a cool break from the sun’s rays. Other activities that can be done near the lake include boating, fishing, snowmobiling, skiing, scuba diving, hiking, horseback riding, bird watching and riding all-terrain vehicles. All of these activities are great for making new, exciting memories and experiencing nature up close. 2020

If you find a new mole or have an existing one that has mutated into an odd-looking, dark bump, make an appointment with a dermatologist soon – especially if you’re over 40. An existing mole that exhibits any of the ABCDE features should also be referred for expert consultation such as, Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Color Change, Diameter greater than 6 mm, and Evolution/Elevation are all signs that a previously benign mole has changed and now needs further scrutiny. The greatest risk factors for melanoma are a personal or family history of melanoma and the presence of atypical or numerous (more than 50) moles. Other risk factors for all forms of skin cancer include fair skin, a history of blistering sunburns (especially in childhood), excessive sun exposure, UV tanning booth usage, personal or family history of skin cancer, weakened immune system and advanced age. Ugh, cancer, really? Skin Cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. Each year in the U.S. over 5.4 million cases of non-melanoma skin cancer are treated in more than 3.3 million people. It is estimated that nearly 200,000 more will be diagnosed with melanoma in 2020. Fortunately, if caught and treated early, most skin cancers are highly curable. Get a baseline skin evaluation. Since you’re new and all, it would be a good idea to get an initial comprehensive skin screening before your life in the high uinta sun revs up in high gear. This will provide your doctor with a valuable starting point for monitoring for any new moles or changes to current ones. 2020
