Petey Boy and his Family's journey to a simpler, healthier and more sustainable life.
Transcript – Alright, Papa Petey here. We’re in the garage because I’m going to make a little brooder for chicks, little baby chicks. We’re going to get some new ones, six new ones in two weeks, and so, we need a space to put them while they grow, their first stages of life, and we’re going to do it here in the garage where it’s warm, or warmer, away from...
Transcript – Peter here, just showing you what I’m up to this weekend. I can tell that I waited too long to feed the chickens, ’cause they flew the coop, they’re out. They’re out of their whole pen. Some of them are still back there, stuck in there, but anyways, they’re hungry, so let’s get them fed! So this is the chicken coop where we actually keep the feed, you...

So, I really like the idea of unique and/or one-off clothing. One of the easiest ways to do that is to paint a design on a shirt. I don’t really have steady hands, so actually hand drawing something tends to be a problem for me, so I much prefer to create something on a computer and create a stencil from it. Then use the stencil to get the exact design...
