Working with your family is not for the faint of heart. Do I love working with my dad,, of course he's basically my bestie, but then there are times where the lines get blurred and that teenage daughter comes out and takes over. For example I show him this really awesome gladiator images of us and he is all like " Candi is this the best use of work time?" "UM YES dad it is! This is what the people want!" Honestly I think he is jealous that mine came out better

Penny tile looks charming and vintage—until it’s poorly installed and all you see are square sheet seams. 🙈

Before you fall in love with those tiny rounds for your upcoming remodel, here’s the contractor’s-kid truth:

✔ The Good: Fantastic slip resistance on shower floors and gorgeous vintage texture.

✔ The Reality: WAY more grout to clean, a higher install difficulty, and a subfloor that has to be dead flat.

Don’t learn the hard way after the mortar dries! I put together an honest guide on what penny tile is, the best places to use it, and what nobody tells you before installation day.

As a woman-owned, family-run business, Toupin Construction has always admired strong women who lead with courage, kindness, and heart—and Dolly Parton was a beautiful example of all three.

Dolly gave so much to so many through her music, generosity, advocacy, and dedication to improving the lives of children and families. Her warmth, strength, humor, and unmistakable sparkle made the world a brighter place, and her extraordinary legacy will live on for generations.

My mom and I are currently planning a trip to Dollywood, and it will now carry even more meaning for us.

Rest in peace, Dolly. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. 💗✨
