Overview
Episode 107 – “It Takes a Community”
Pacifica is a co-housing community, and Tracy and Brad take us on a tour. It reflects their world-view and inspires how they intend to live their life. Today we review how we’ll create an eco-friendly nursery using materials that are safe in every respect. We build a pipe bookshelf, begin our update of the bath, and build a book stack lamp from scratch.
Episode 108 – “Bookish Baby”
Tracy and Brad continue their journey to parenthood by working with a local bookbinder to create a journal for their baby. At home, we are putting down eco-friendly carpet tile, building a book-themed signpost, and fitting out our nursery with other organically fashioned projects.
