Key takeaway: no one knows how to parent, so dont follow my advice. My opinion on screen time: its 2024, every job ive ever had requires all day screen time, and they might as well get comfy with it. That said, I do want them to limit their exposure while theyre developing their brains, and theres so much other than tv to explore and learn. Basically, I want to limit things a bit, ideally in a way thay normalizes electronics as a pwrt of daily life, but provides even more fun alternatives. All the smart plugs I looked at had some kind of button to turn them on and off which defeats the purpose, so this is a little extra. Im sure all of these perspectives are wrong and this is horrible advice, so you are 100% able to ignore it. #theforgehouse #pa #parenting #screentime #oldhouse #ouroldhouse #dadlife #dadjokes #housetour #playroom #shelly #smarthome #smartrelay

AI design apps arent perfect, but if you want to visualize the same space 50 different ways instantly, or try a bunch of paint colors on for size, its dramatically easier than using a designer. It will do silly things like add a window somewhere you couldnt add one in real life, etc but i will try several prompts and just see which ones work the best. The app I use is called Remodel AI. #interiordesign #ai #aiapp #theforgehouse #ouroldhouse #remodel #remodelai #aidesign #machinelearning #aidesigner #diy #homeimprovement #interiordesigner #designer

You heard it here first. Closet doors that arent cut in half are out, cremone bolts are IN. I think theyre normally on french doors in fancy houses, but why not medicine cabinets? The hardware is one of my favorite parts of our renovation. This old house is coming back to life, one closet at a time. #powderroom #bathroommakeover #theforgehouse #ouroldhouse #remodel #renovation #restoration #cremonebolts #antiquehardware #oldhousenewhome #stonehouserevival #pennsylvania #diy
