Celebrating Homecoming!

elcome to the Annual Lane County Home Improvement Show!

Merriam-Webster’s definition for homecoming is “the return of a group of people, usually on a special occasion, to a place formerly frequented or regarded as home.” This is such a fitting theme for the 38th Annual Lane County Home Improvement Show presented by NW Natural.

Our family business, Berg Productions, has been looking forward to this homecoming, and we’re excited to present the area’s best contractors, suppliers, retailers and amazing craftspeople to answer your questions and help you get your home and garden projects going.

The home show is the perfect place to begin projects big and

small. The best projects always start with a conversation, expert advice and scheduling experts to actually see your home or garden. Finding the best experts really is the first step to falling in love with your home again.

We’re thrilled to bring in the biggest lineup of entertainment EVER! Enjoy daily interior design seminars by Laurie Smith of TLC’s “Trading Spaces,” and MadDog & Merrill, “grillologists” who will keep you laughing while sharing tailgating recipes and grilling tips. And, world-famous giant pumpkin carver Scott Cully is back with Pumpkin Palooza on Saturday!

Our home and garden events are important to Lane County’s economy, contributing in excess of $18 million in incre-

mental economic impact. The show also serves area homeowners who need to source experts and advice to move forward with major home improvements. We are so grateful to our exhibitors and sponsors who have supported this fall’s reopening.

We’ve missed seeing friends

and neighbors in the aisles.

We hope you can join us and that the 38th Annual Lane County Home Improvement Show is an outstanding homecoming for all of you!

diences with her modern but classic design style.

“I loved it,” she says. “For me, design is an extension of the person living in that space. Back then, a lot of people really had limited access to designers and even to furniture and textiles. As a result, people were very frustrated when taking on a space in their home. To me, it became a personal mission or calling, because I think everyone deserves great style in their homes.”

For Smith and the other members of the “Trading Spaces” cast, doing the show in the early 2000s was a lot different than it would be today. For starters, Smith says the short timeline and limited budget – usually $1,000 per space – forced designers to think creatively. Some retail box stores like Target, now the go-to answer for quick, affordable furnishings, didn’t even have home sections at the time. Smith says “Trading Spaces” helped change that.

“I think our show was part of a catalyst, Interior designer Laurie Smith will share design inspiration at four home show seminars. and people started going into these retail shops looking for furnishings and textiles, rugs and lamps for their homes,” she says.

“We watched the big box stores move with us.”

Sprucing up people’s spaces and giving them a reason to care about good interior design was also rewarding.

“I’m glad to have been part of a moveDesigner Laurie Smith brings her TLC story ment that was inspiring people to care and and design tips to the home show feel empowered about their spaces and realizing that they, too, have a space that reflects them,” Smith says.

At the Home Show Designer and former “Trading Spaces” star Laurie Smith brings her flare for design to four seminars on the Main Stage at this year’s show · Interior Design – Finding Your Personal Style – Fri. 6:00 pm · Interior Design - Fresh Ideas to Update Spaces – Sat. 12 noon · Interior Design – Infusing Color with Fabrics, Paint & Art – Sat. 5:00 pm · Interior Design – Before & After with Laurie Smith – Sun. 11:00 am

Smith says it helps to choose an object of inspiration when re-imagining a space in your home.

Her seminars at this year’s Fall Lane County Home Improvement Show will touch on everything related to interior design, from infusing color and finding personal style to fresh ideas for updating any space.

One useful tip from Smith when it comes to reimagining a space? Find an object of inspiration, even if it’s something that doesn’t end up in the room. It could be a photo, a painting, a textile or even just a color combination. As long as it’s some-

thing that’s inspirational to you.

“When I have the opportunity to work with something that inspires the homeowner, that’s my touchstone,” Smith says.

“If we get off course, we can go back to that object of inspiration and say, ‘Are we facilitating this mood?’ That’s a great springboard, just beginning with something that is inspiring.”

Wisconsin grilling duo MadDog and Merrill will share their secrets to great tailgating and holiday grilling all three days at the fall home show.

Good ol’ grillin’ guys America’s Grilloligist’s MadDog and Merrill get fired up at this year’s home show

I

By Jon Bell t’s tailgating season. We’re in Eugene. And celebrity grilling experts MadDog and Merrill are firing up their barbecue at the Fall Lane County Home Improvement Show.

What’s on the menu?

Bacon-wrapped yellow and green zuccinni as well as some green and gold peppers, in honor of the Oregon Ducks, of course.

“There’s no right or wrong and it doesn’t really matter who wins the game,” says MadDog, half of the MadDog and Merrill duo who’ve become renowned for their grilling game through their “Midwest Grill’n” television show.

“What really makes for a good tailgate is 10

Dog says holiday grilling focuses on larger cuts of meat, as well as brining turkeys before grilling. Other good calls include cedar plank salmon and using rubs and injectables to maximize flavors.

“As cuts have gotten leaner and leaner, you really want to try to retain moisture,” MadDog says. That can include oiling meats and searing them to lock in juices. He also recommends coming up with your own concocMark Mathewson and Gary Merrill of MadDog and Merrill. tions to add to a standard garden misthe team colors.” ter spray bottle that helps keep meat MadDog and Merrill will present four juicy while it grills.

Key to great grilling, according to MadDog: moisture, rubs and misting spray bottles filled with broth, juices or wine.

with the classic Weber charcoal grill, then to the convenience of gas grills. What’s really taken grilling by storm, however, is the advances made with pellet grills.

“It’s phenomenal that the pellet grill industry has just taken it over,” he says, adding that while the ceramic grill trend made some waves, pellet grills and their associated technology are really leading the way. “Now you have an app on your phone that can help you cook it just right and get it to just the right temperature. We never dreamed we’d have that before.”

As for grilling here in the Pacific Northwest, especially during the rainy season, it’s often about cooking “fast and furious” to avoid hanging out in the weather too long. The Northwest’s penchant for coffee also means that there are a lot of great coffee rubs around. And our farmers’ markets offer up all kinds of fresh produce that can be great on the grill.

“We’ve done a farmers’ market where we do stuff squashed, zucchini, sweet potatoes, all kinds of great stuff,” MadDog says. “We also do a cast iron Dutch oven.

It’s cabbage with a couple sticks of butter, some dried onion soup mix and beer with bacon. There’s no better eats than that.”

At the Home Show Grilling experts MadDog and Merrill will bring their unique grilling seminars – complete with a side of humor.

Four presentations on the Grilling Stage at this year’s show include: Friday • Fire Up Tailgate Grilling • ’Tis the Season for Holiday Grilling Saturday • Fire Up Tailgate Grilling • It’s All About Grillin’ Meat - Rubs, Sauces, Mops & Marinades • Grillin’ Up Pre-Game Hors d’oeuvrs • ’Tis the Season for Holiday Grilling Sunday • Fire Up Tailgate Grilling • It’s All About Grillin’ Meat - Rubs, Sauces, Mops & Marinades • ’Tis the Season for Holiday Grilling See pages 8-9 for seminar times.

while heated shower floors are only recently popular, the technology is the same that’s been in use for years in radiant flooring in other parts of the bathroom.

Dakers says Rainbow Valley has recently completed a few bathroom remodels that involved putting standalone tubs inside the shower area in what he calls a “wet room” concept.

“The whole area is basically a big shower,” he says. “There’s plenty of room for the shower and the tub, so all of the bathing experience is in this large shower area.”

Rain showers are a must for a spa-like experience.

Modern bathroom remodels focus on the spa experience and universal design

Full-on bathroom suites that would give high-end spas a run for their money.

Welcome to the world of contemporary bathroom remodels, where spa-like features are in and homeowners are making sure that they’ll be able to enjoy and use their bathrooms for years to come.

“It’s been popular for a while, but people wanting their bathrooms to be more of a spa-like experience is still really big,” says Alec Dakers, a partner and lead designer at

Rainbow Valley Design and Construction, a residential design-build company based in Eugene since 1971.

What makes a home bathroom feel like a spa? That might be a steam shower, towel warmers on the walls or an oversized soaking tub. It also might be not just warm radiant floors in the bathroom, but actually in the shower as well.

“Heated floors in the shower is kind of a new thing that a lot of people have been looking into,” says Don Delaplain, co-owner of ReVision Design Build, a design-build firm that specializes in, among other projects, bathroom remodels. He adds that

| EugeneHomeShow.com | 38TH ANNUAL FALL LANE COUNTY HOME IMPROVEMENT SHOW | October 2022

Aging in place goes mainstream Along the same lines, many bathroom remodels these days incorporate walk-in showers or curbless showers, which are easy to get in and out of. Originally part of the aging-in-place or universal design trend, Delaplain says such features, along with higher ADA-approved toilets, have become more commonplace.

“We do a lot of aging-in-place designs, but it’s almost become the mainstay with everyone,” he says. “It’s become more mainstream to just build bathrooms that are set up for that. What used to be an ADA toilet is now just the standard. It’s really rare to use the old ones. I think customers are just really interested in going the aging-in-place route these days.”

Dakers has seen that trend as well.

“The population as a whole is aging, so it’s really been big for us,” he says. “The idea is really just that you can age in place and be comfortable and relaxed in the bathroom as long as you’re in the house.”

Other features accompanying the agingin-place trend include grab bars that are

Large walk-in showers, some with bathtubs in them, have become a popular feature in today’s remodeled bathrooms.

much more stylish than they used to be.

Before, people were hesitant to put ugly metal bars in their spa-like showers, even if they would help them keep their balance and get in and out.

“People don’t like to think about them,” Dakers says. “They’re very utilitarian. But they are nicer now. Plumbing manufacturers have seen the trend and they’re making nicer and nicer ones now.”

The right choices When it comes to tile choices, Delaplain says 3-D printing technology has made just about any style or texture available. Tiles are printed in any color imaginable and with custom patterns and designs that are endless.

“The world of tile has just blown up because of 3-D printing,” he says. “With the computer technology, it’s just a different world. There are just millions and millions of color and texture choices.”

Homeowners face a lot of choices when they’re considering a bathroom remodel.

A big one? Whether or not to work with a design-build firm that specializes in bathrooms.

Delaplain says the choice is pretty clear.

“Our recommendation is to talk to a good design-build contractor or interior designer who specializes in bathrooms and who really knows the intricacies of these kinds of projects,” he says. “One of the things I see is that there are a lot of guys who can build stuff, but they don’t want anything to do with design. They get the stuff and put it in but there’s no thought put into the design portion. Those always go badly.”

Aegis cares about the health and longevity of our community.

As a business that provides paving and asphalt services, we have a unique responsibility for the water that washes our work sites.

As water flows over our work area.

HERE’S WHAT WE DO

STREET SMARTS

To keep water pollution off our streets Schedule paving, grading, and excavation projects for dry weather. Do not apply sealant if rain is forecast for the next 24 hrs.

Follow manufacturers recommendations for temperatures Prepare the area with a mechanical sweeper and do not use water to flush the surface.

Be ready for spills. Keep a “spill kit” on site and use it to soak up liquid spills with dry, absorbent materials such as kitty litter, saw dust, pads, etc. Also store hazardous materials in a designated area with secondary containment.

Cover construction materials, aggregate, and supplies so they are protected from the weather and don’t wash away when it rains.

Cover storm drains and catch basins with plastic or cardboard to prevent hydrocarbons, over-spray, and sealers from entering.

No matter what it’s like outside, count on natural gas for comfort inside.

F

rom the precise heat of a natural gas cooktop to the warmth of a natural gas furnace, natural gas is known for creating homes people love to live in. But creating a comfortable space is only part of the story.

That’s because many natural gas appliances continue to perform during a power outage. This feature is top-of-mind for homeowners and buyers. If you’re in the market for a new home or new gas appliances, there are a few things to check before buying if this capability is important to you.

Now we’re cooking When purchasing a gas range or cooktop, make sure the model you choose will still operate without electricity. That way, you can boil water and cook food when you need to.

Hot water when you need it Whether for bathing, showers, or for any number of other household tasks, having hot water during power outages can’t be understated. A number of today’s tankless water heaters – in addition to their smaller size and ability to provide near-instant hot water – are able to operate with a battery backup, so they can continue to provide hot water if the power goes out.

Turn up the heat Although all furnaces require electricity to run the blower motor, a natural gas fireplace can continue to provide warmth in a power outage. As you’re shopping, note that many modern gas fireplaces require electricity to light the pilot. Look for a model that has a battery backup system for the ignitor.

Generate your own power Don’t worry about the backup batteries and add a natural gas generator. With a constant supply of energy, a natural gas generator can give your home the power to keep all your important systems running when the weather has other plans.

Preparing for year-round performance There are a lot of manufacturers out there and even more high-quality options.

With the right research and questions, you can create a home that’s ready for almost anything nature brings your way.

If you’d like to know more about the capabilities of natural gas and the products that use it, visit nwnatural.com.

Pumpkin carver Scott Cully gets creative with big jack-o-lantern faces every year around Halloween.

Crazy for Carving

World-renowned pumpkin carver Scott Cully’s handiwork will dazzle showgoers again this year

By Jon Bell t started one fine fall day in northwest Connecticut in 1988: The foliage was bursting with color, the air was crisp and Scott Cully and his wife had two bottles of hard cider, a sharp knife and a 400-pound pumpkin they’d grown.

They spent the afternoon carving the pumpkin into a classic jack-o-lantern face.

Then they loaded it up in a truck and took it to a friend’s Halloween party.

“It was a big hit,” says Cully, “so I just started carving more and more.”

Cully then moved to the Pacific North-

west, where pumpkin carvers take their medium much more seriously. Cully started carving the big boys for casinos, Halloween parties, private events, large shopping malls and, eventually, in venues around the world.

“Word got out, and before you know it, I was carving internationally,” he says.

Over the years, Cully has even held multiple Guinness World Records for carving the largest pumpkins. He doesn’t hold the record now, but he’s still way up there. Last November, he carved his personal best – a 2,148-pound jack-o-lantern in Stuttgart, Germany. He also once

Jack-o-lantern carving tips from the top World-renowned pumpkin carver Scott Cully knows a thing or two about carving a top-notch jack-o-lantern. Here are some of his favorite tips for budding carvers.

• For parents: Take your kids out to the local pumpkin patch not just once a year, but every weekend between mid-September and Halloween. Buy a pumpkin each time and have your child carve it. “The more you do it, the better you’ll be,” Cully says.

• Choose a place to carve where the mess won’t matter. “Don’t do it in a place that you don’t want to be a mess, because it’s going to be a mess,” he says.

Cully’s average pumpkin weighs in at 1,000 pounds and takes eight to 10 hours to carve.

appeared on “The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson,” and he’s been featured on NPR, “The Today Show” and many other programs.

Cully returns to the Fall Lane County Home Improvement Show this year, where he’ll be slicing and dicing up a thousand-pound beast on Saturday. He never knows what he’ll carve until he sees the pumpkin, but he definitely always goes with something fairly traditional.

“I always carve faces, and I just try to bring out the face that is already in the pumpkin,” he says. “Others will use it as a medium to sculpt landscape scenes or something else. And my style is to always carve all the way through and into the inner core of the pumpkin so you can use light or smoke on the inside.”

he encourages people to get up close and watch.

“I’m usually talking to the crowd, to the press,” he says. “There is no rush at all. I’m just trying to inspire people and show them something they’ve never seen before.”

His ephemeral works of art – they usually only last a few days after being carved – take him about 45 minutes of carving for every 100 pounds of pumpkin. At that pace, he’ll be at it at this year’s show for a minimum of eight hours, if not more.

“To me, it’s more about entertaining the people and inspiring the kids, trying to show them that this kind of creativity is possible, rather than having a finished piece,” Cully says. “It has been a wonderful hobby and pastime for me around the world.”

• Make sure you pick the right side for the front and the back.

• Use face paint markers, like clown makeup, to draw your design on your pumpkin. It wipes off much more easily than sharpie or magic marker.

“Take your time and visualize what you want the end result to be,” Cully says.

• Have fun. “It is the most wholesome, family-oriented event there is,” he says. “Electric devices are not involved at all. Grab a cup of cider and just get out there and carve it with your parents, your brother or sister.

Just have fun.”

• And last but not least, don’t worry about what kind of pumpkin to choose. “Variety doesn’t matter,” Cully says. “Just get the biggest one you can find.”

Neil Kelly design consultant Kathy Hanson’s clients went with a unique and bold color scheme for their kitchen remodel – one way to really personalize a space.

Making a kitchen your own

The most important room in the house can also be the most characteristic

By Jon Bell here may not be a single room in a house, save for maybe a bedroom, that lends itself more toward a homeowner’s personality than the kitchen.

It is in the kitchen where the entertaining and gathering happen. It’s where the chef of the house conjures up culinary magic using the tools and appliances on hand. It’s where specific colors and textures meld, where cooking space often blends into living space and where families and friends make memories from day-to-day lives and special occasions throughout the year.

“When it comes to kitchens, it’s really about helping clients build a space in their home that works for them so that they can stay and enjoy it and really make it

what they want it to be,” says Jen Castile, who co-owns Castile Kitchen & Bath in Eugene with her husband, Forrest.

Indeed, the kitchen is a place that needs to be highly functional but also comfortable. And it is a place, thanks to the endless options of cabinetry, appliances, colors, textures, gadgets, lighting, flooring and just about everything else in between, that can be personalized – made your own – in a way that not many other rooms in a home can be.

“Because kitchens are so important to people and there are so many different materials to work with – appliances, fixtures, lighting – there are just so many opportunities to do unique things,” says Alec Dakers, a partner and lead designer at Rainbow Valley Design and Construction in Eugene. “It’s a great place to

Spotlight projects Kathy Hanson is a design consultant with Neil Kelly who recently helped one client family express plenty of personality in their kitchen remodel. The space had been a 1990s kitchen, complete with the oak cabinets that had been popular at the time. The project was a “pull and replace,” meaning that the appliances and plumbing would all stay in the same location, but everything else in the kitchen would be changed out.

Hanson says the family went bold with their color choices, picking a group of blues and grays with a bright yellow for a custom maker space at the far end of the kitchen – an important area that’s ideal for deskwork and homework. An intricate glazed Japanese tile backsplash takes center stage above the range, while floating natural wood shelves with recessed lighting bring in a touch of the rustic.

“The way the textures and the colors came together was unique for sure,” Hanson says.

Similarly, Neil Kelly design consultant Stefanie Rotella helped another family transform what had been a cramped kitchen in their coastal home into an open gathering area that blends almost seamlessly into the living room and its commanding views of the Pacific Ocean.

The kitchen had been fairly enclosed and accessible by one narrow entry. The challenge: making the area feel larger without

encroaching on the adjacent living room.

“We wanted to make the entirety of the kitchen feel larger without actually making the kitchen larger,” Rotella says. “If we did make the kitchen larger, it would have cost functionality in the living space.”

The solution: cut down a restrictive wall to Dakers, think about colors.

“Don’t be afraid of color,” he says. “Peoand move two towering cabinets to open ple oftentimes are afraid of color and they up the space. They also put in a bar area, don’t know how to use it.

And to tie the two areas together even more, the project removed a heavy fireplace mantle and wood-burning hearth and replaced them with an electric fireplace and lighter, flowing shelves.

It’s nice to see that there’s a huge transition into that.”

Lighting can be an important differentiator as well. Hanson says the trend is swinging toward chandeliers and away from pendants. There’s also a way to individualize various zones in a kitchen so they work best for you – think a zone for prep, a zone for conversation, a zone for cleaning up.

“We try to design spaces so each zone has its job,” Hanson says.

And while many homeowners can bring their own personality into a kitchen remodel project, Dakers says having a design team on board is hard to beat. If you take a magazine photo of a kitchen to a builder and say that’s the kitchen you want, that may be the kitchen you get – but it’s probably not the kitchen that really speaks to you.

“We always encourage clients to make it their own,” he says. “A white kitchen is easy because it’s all white. And it’s pretty.

But anybody can make it look pretty.

Once you start mixing colors and textures, stone and wood, light and fixtures, it takes time and the right eye to get it to work.

But once you hit it, it just sings. You want that kitchen that sings.”

Planting fall cover crops, such as fava beans or crimson clover, is a good way to ensure you’ll have a bountiful garden next summer.

Got You Covered Home Show favorite John Fischer shares his favorite fall cover crops

W

e ask a lot of our gardens - especially our vegetable gardens.

We do a lot of taking (and eating). The garden does a lot of giving. But if you want this dynamic to continue, your garden needs to eat too. Of course you can fertilize and add organic matter during the growing season, or you can let Mother Nature (and Father Natural) do the work for you during the off season.

Planting a cover crop in the fall will add fertility to the soil, provide a healthy dose of organic matter to help with tilth (soil texture), reduce soil compaction due to rain and keep the weeds down so that spring planting is easier. It’s a win, win, win, win situation - try saying that 10 times while eating another zucchini.

If you want another win, make fava beans your go-to cover crop. Planted September through December they will fix nitrogen, and give you a crop of delicious beans in May and June while your green beans are just starting to climb up their

Fava beans make a great cover crop. Not only will they give you a delicious crop in spring, but they’ll help fix nitrogen in your soil.

poles. The Windsor Broad is the variety you want - they are available locally, and I will have a supply of free beans for you to plant. Just find me at the home show, or

look for the “Magic Bean Jar” on the desk at the home show office.

Favas should be planted about an inch deep, a foot apart, and kept moist if the fall rains have not yet arrived. Once the plants are a foot or so high, you can pull off the tender lower leaves to be an ingredient in a winter salad along with arugula, sorrel, dandelion greens, endive and lingering or store-bought lettuce.

The beans need to be shelled before you cook them, but despite what French cookbooks say, you don’t need to shell the inner beans if you pick them when an opened pod reveals grayish green beans. You’ll never eat all the favas the plants produce, so save the leftovers after the pods have turned black and dry to plant in the fall. I compost the dry stalks, or just leave them on the ground before planting a hungry crop where the favas wintered over. Leave the roots in the ground. That’s where all the free nitrogen is.

stay on the ground. It will keep weeds down and provide an excellent mulch for anything you plant. Just make sure “anything” is a large crop - like tomatoes, corn, broccoli or squash. To plant, just move the cut clover aside to make a space for a tomato, a row of corn or a hill of squash. The soil will be fertilized and mulched, so you will save time and money on soil additives and water. Once you’ve planted crimson clover, you will do it over and over.

Vetch, corn salad and Austrian peas make fine cover crops too, but they don’t provide a feast for the table, or the eyes, so I focus on the two crops I have talked about. Experimentation is always fun. Let me know if you have good results with other cover crops. But no matter what you plant, you’ll be giving back to your garden, and the favor will be returned.

Crimson clover is beloved by bees, but it also works great as a fall color crop. It will grow slowly all winter, then explode in red flowers come springtime.

Crimson and clover, over and over My other favorite cover crop is crimson clover - crimson clover, not red clover (red is a perenial, crimson is an annual).

Sow the seed in lightly tilled or roughly raked ground September through November. Again, keep the soil moist if the rains are not doing the work for you. The

clover will grow slowly all winter, then in March it will explode and produce a beautiful field of red flowers in April or May. When the flowers are at their peak, mow or string trim them down in the morning before the bees are active. If you are a late riser, expect to be challenged if you cut when the bees are eating.

You can just let the mowed clover
