The Life Of Dolly Parton, The Queen Of Country Music

Parton Restored Her Family Home

You already know that Dolly Parton’s upbringing is something that is near and dear to her heart. That is probably why when she had the money to do so, she bought her childhood home in the rural town where she grew up. Although she had it renovated for the modern day, Parton made to sure restore most of the home to how it was when she was growing up.

When she appeared on The Nate Berkus Show, “My brother Bobby is a great carpenter. He worked on it and restored it. What we tried to do was make it look like it did when we lived there, but we wanted it to be functional. So I spent a couple million dollars making it look like I spent $50 on it! Even like in the bathroom, I made the bathroom so it looked like an outdoor toilet.”
