FRANKLIN’S FAV O R I T E F I N E JEWELER GROGAN JEWELERS BY LON JEWELRY PURCHASES OFTEN CELEBRATE AND PUNCTUATE LIFE-CHANGING EVENTS. Choosing your jeweler to guide you in those special times is an important factor to keep in mind when choosing who to make your jewelry investment with. If you are looking for a jeweler who will support you for the life of that piece, look no further than Grogan Jewelers by Lon. They have a rich and storied history; their 2016 establishment in Franklin at the Cool Springs Galleria is their third store and first in Tennessee. In 1915, over one hundred years before the first Tennessee establishment, Grogan Jewelers opened their family-run store in Florence, Alabama launching their deep Southern roots and becoming the place for purchasing lifetime jewelry.

Their second location in Alabama has been a Huntsville tradition for over 10 years.

Franklin Lifestyle | September 2020

ARTICLE ASHLEY HUTCHESON PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED Grogan Jewelers by Lon has a lifetime warranty the entire staff will “put our name behind.” Grogan looks beyond the item and seeks to set up a relationship with the customer. It’s not a rare event to find heart-warming stories of strong ties to the store. Last fall, Grogan Jewelers by Lon helped provide a bridal setting, one of their specialties, that was the third generation of Grogan rings for the family. They love to set their customers up for an heirloom piece.

In a consumer market where, seemingly, anyone can sell a piece of fine jewelry or a diamond, Grogan Jewelers

by Lon offers trust, quality and family values along with piece of mind that comes from knowing your jeweler personally. Lon Brown, the Grogan Jewelers namesake, has decades of jewelry experience. A successful entrepreneur, Lon, her children and their spouses bought the tradition and trust in 2015 and have elevated the Grogan legacy.

EVIN KREHBIEL FIRST BECAME INTERESTED IN PHOTOGRAPHY WHEN TAKING A FILM PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS IN HIGH SCHOOL. Then while attending Samford University in Birmingham, she interned for a magazine in their foods photography department and says, “That experience sparked in me a love for photographing food, styled tablescapes and interior design.” Fast forward 15 years, Evin adds, “I have photographed hundreds if not thousands of portrait sessions and weddings, alongside a deep passion for styled shoots & content photography.”

Photography was initially a side gig for the mom of three, but business took off. And one can see why, as her philosophy is service. “To be good and successful, you MUST serve people well. Listen to their needs and expectations, communicate your process clearly and seek to over deliver,” Evin states.

Her favorite piece of advice has served her well. ‘Not now doesn’t mean not ever.’ She explains, “Especially

HE ALTH AND HEALING THE BIOLOGIX CENTER FOR OPTIMUM HEALTH TREATS THE CAUSE, NOT THE SYMPTOM

LOTS OF PEOPLE USE THE INTERNET TO RESEARCH HELP AND SOLUTIONS FOR MANY COMMON CONDITIONS LIKE HEADACHES, SLEEP ISSUES, ANXIETY AND FATIGUE. But even those without a medical degree know that treating those symptoms is not the same as treating what causes them. Enter Biologix. Dr. David Jernigan opened the center with the express belief that healing happens when you get to the root cause of what ails you.

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO OPEN BIOLOGIX HERE IN FRANKLIN? I initially moved to the Franklin area years ago, to be closer to my elderly parents, while continuing to work on health-related research. This research needed more of my attention, so I set up an IRB research program and decided to build a flagship location in the business-friendly Franklin area. I found and fell in love with a location for the Biologix Center, nestled up against a beautifully wooded mountain just off the highway near the intersection of Moore’s Lane and Franklin Road.

YOU HAVE PERSONALLY BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH TRAUMA IN YOUR LIFE - BOTH PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. HOW DID YOU OVERCOME IT ALL? I have indeed been through much of the hardship that a person can experience in life.

In the 25 years that I have pursued finding 46

significance in my life through helping others heal, my patients have often demonstrated such amazing love and grace, though they were profoundly sick and, at times, dying. My faith and my drive to continually improve myself, not to mention my desire to remain unchanged in my continual love and trust in God, in spite of my circumstances, has made all the difference in helping me overcome my personal traumas.

TELL US ABOUT A PATIENT SUCCESS STORY THAT YOU’RE PROUD OF. I would say that my crowning achievement as a doctor was with a young man who came in a wheelchair with 54 major symptoms. He had been on top of the world, playing hockey and living a normal life, until contracting Lyme disease, after which his entire life came to a screeching halt. In spite of being treated by many doctors, he soon became unable to walk or to speak, living in a nightmare of severe, unrelenting pain all over his body. He could not express emotion, since to smile, laugh, or cry caused excruciating agony inside his head. He could not eat solid food or feed himself, having to be fed a nutrient-rich soup, prepared daily by his mother, to be slowly sipped through small paper cups.

mother brought him to me for treatment, coming all the way from Canada, in desperation, willing to try anything to help her son get well. Having specialized in treatment-resistant, chronic illness, for my entire career, I was forced to innovate new ways to test and treat the body, since most of my patients had not only exhausted all that conventional medicine had to offer, but also all they could find in the way of natural medicine. Within a week, this brave young man was able to speak for the first time in two and a half years. And within two weeks he was able to walk again. His initial treatment program had been planned for two weeks, however with all of the symptoms rapidly falling away, he was not about to leave and ultimately stayed for six weeks, turning 19 years of age during his stay. He returned for follow up visits to continue his healing process but has now for many years enjoyed the ability to participate in college life, even joining a hockey team, and backpacking across Europe.

ARTIST’S PALETTE

850 square feet

OF INGENUITY STONEBRIDGE ART GALLERY

WITH ALL OF THE CHANGES THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE IN FRANKLIN IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, IT’S REFRESHING TO KNOW ONE THING HAS NOT CHANGED - STONEBRIDGE ART GALLERY. The gallery has been a staple at the Factory for 20 years. Don and Colleen Metzger celebrated their one year anniversary on August 27th as the new owners. Business is going strong through the pandemic which is a testament to the business plan built by previous owners Ron and Cheri Burr. The Metzgers had big shoes to fill, but they have done so flawlessly. It was a smooth transition and loyal customers were pleased to welcome Don and Colleen. Colleen says, “There are a lot of things we’re keeping the same, like the variety and affordability. With my fine arts education, we’re now offering more contemporary art for today’s interior design world.” They are grateful for their continued friendship and wisdom from Ron and Cheri.

Colleen is an artist with works throughout the country.

She recently discovered cyanotype, an alternative method of photography, at a workshop and has been creating them ever since. The complex procedure, involving sunlight, chemicals, and high quality papers, creates an imprint of an object with a blue background. (After all, the 2020 Pantone Color of the Year is Classic Blue!)

Cyanotype is often a way to capture natural elements such as flowers and herbs. Colleen often forages from the Tennessee landscape, but will also document flowers from her travels. Her stunning blue archives are showcased in the gallery, but she also does custom commissions. For instance, she can make cyanotypes using baptism outfits or wedding veils. Colleen adds, “One project I’m excited about is helping homeowners or historical gardens and institutions preserve their landscape by creating site specific documentation of the specimens from the garden, using the same sun and water the garden received to grow the flora 52

and fauna to magically capture the essence of the space.” No cyanotype is like the other, making it definitive and special. Don says her section is not nearly as big as she deserves, but they try to fit in as many pieces as possible in their 850 square foot gallery.

The rest of Stonebridge is thoughtfully curated originals from around the world. They have every style from figurative to abstract. They work with a New York art dealer and they buy whatever catches their eye to resell in the gallery.

Colleen’s extensive background as an art educator and traveler gives them an edge.

To accommodate for their large inventory, they have two stacks of paintings that have not been stretched. Many customers love the interactive aspect of flipping through and having a “ta-da” moment when they find a piece they love.

Don says, “Sometimes we have people who come in and they don’t even know what they like. It’s a discovery process.” They witness people falling in love with pieces they’d been searching and visualizing for a specific space for years. Due to the coronavirus, people are spending more time in their homes, staring at their walls, and are looking to redecorate. Don and Colleen have composed an encouraging and resourceful setting for anyone looking for original art because they understand how intimidating other galleries can feel.

The gallery’s clients consistently remind them why their business is so important. Don says, “We had a pregnant couple buy some 12 x 24 paintings for their baby’s nursery and I was like ‘this is why I do this.’ That painting is going to be

in the house as long as that child is and will probably go with that child once they move out.” Oneof-a-kind work will always hold value and emotion.

Their clientele spans to hotels and restaurants.

Art can instantly change the mood of a room, gaining attention from more guests. They have multiple pieces from the same artists that are similar enough to be sold together as a set or separately. They imagine their romantic paintings of a pianist and a waiter on the walls of a billiards parlor. Art can transform a space from dull to brilliant.

Once a customer finds their ultimate piece, Don can stretch and frame it for them in his framing studio in the back of the gallery. It is a skill passed down from Ron that he is passionate about and can take into retirement. There is a huge selection of gorgeous wood frames to choose from. They offer custom framing for anything from diplomas to antique paintings. Many people want to upgrade a chunky frame with something more refined. It makes all the difference in a modern home.

Stonebridge Art Gallery features an unpretentious art buying experience. Don and Colleen Metzger invite both amateur and experienced art collectors to stroll among their 150 hand-selected original artworks from around the globe.

A Journey From C a l i for n ia to Te n n e s s e e ARTICLE MAILE MISAJON

FORMER EDEN'S CRUSH SINGER MAILE MISAJON MAKES HER HOME IN FRANKLIN IF YOU HAD TOLD THIS CALIFORNIA GIRL 10 YEARS AGO, THAT SHE’D BE MOVING TO THE COUNTRY WHERE THE HORSES RUN AND THE SUN SETS AT 7 PM ON THE ROLLING HILLS, I WOULD NOT HAVE BELIEVED YOU. But I do now. And I still pinch myself. Because Franklin, Tennessee is my home, and home is where this California girl’s heart is.

Born and raised in Southern California, just south of Los Angeles in a quaint beach town called Naples, you would think it took a severe earthquake 62

Franklin Lifestyle | September 2020

and some massive aftershocks to get me to move to the Southeast at the tender age of 29. But as life would have it, maybe it wasn’t exactly an earthquake, but a good breakup that makes for a good country song.

In truth, I just needed to get out of LA. After some wildly huge success in the music pop world as the member of an all girl group named Eden’s Crush, it was the downfall of the music business combined with the realization that wearing leather pants and opening for acts like NSYNC and Jessica Simpson wasn’t exactly the road I was meant to be on forever.

ENTER NASHVILLE. After licking my breakup wounds and heading South, I found myself immersed in an ultra friendly community of creatives, a town where people offer directions to the interstate and actually lead you there, and an array of wonderful, kind women who I could call friends after only one quick conversation. This city quickly became my home and my refuge.

After the heartbreak passed and the stories of my life were written in song, I found myself in love with Tennessee. It wasn’t long before I also found love in a new husband and shortly thereafter, a daughter I had always longed for.

And as fate would have it, my husband found his dream lot in Franklin just around the time we found out we were pregnant with our second. Turns out, God had a bigger plan. Not only would we be moving to Franklin, we would be having identical twin boys.

The move and the surprise, was everything we hoped for.

From the sprawling space we have on our property to the warm faces we see in downtown Franklin at our favorite restaurant Cork and Cow, home is definitely here and here to stay. From the tremendous schools, to my favorite shopping at my friend Holly William’s store Whites Mercantile, to our local Starbucks, Franklin living is our living. From Sunday’s farmer’s market, to donut trucks, to our must have Italian Zola’s for our Friday night dinner, home is where our heart is and all my California friends and family agree.

I am so grateful to have found a little slice of heaven here in Franklin, TN. And I hope when my kids get older, they’ll agree wholeheartedly. And also never leave. ** Just a few weeks before this went to press, Maile and her husband sold their beloved home. They are still in Franklin and are currently building their forever home.

Maile is a blogger and writer/curator at Maile-Misajon.com and still writes songs part time when she’s not chasing her twin boys in the backyard. She’s the mama of two wild twin boys who are five and a nine-year-old daughter who is her spitting image. She is married to songwriter/producer and publisher Jeremy Stover of Red Creative Group. Find her on instagram: maile misajon or her site Maile-Misajon.com where you can subscribe to her weekly posts discussing everything from marriage to parenting to saving face serums.

INSPIRED BY SEXY, FEARLESS STYLE

TORI SOUDAN A TRUE ARTIST AND VISIONARY, TORI SOUDAN IS ONE OF THE FEW AFRICAN AMERICAN FEMALE SHOE DESIGNERS IN THE WORLD. Her purpose—born out of a love for fashion—began at just 9 years old in her hometown of Stratford, Connecticut, where her mother taught her to make fancy Easter dresses.

As a teenager, Tori progressed to designing prom gowns for classmates.

Her inspiration to design footwear came in 1994 when she studied abroad and saw a demonstration given by a master shoemaker near Venice, Italy.

She was struck by the intricacies of Old World shoemaking and embarked on her vision to design footwear of impeccable quality for women. She went on to graduate Spelman College, and after studying design at the famed Parson’s Institute of Design in NYC and interning with American sportswear designer Tommy Hilfiger, Tori was ready to give women what she knew they deserved—the most superlative shoes imaginable, and in 2011, she debuted her first collection.

Today the Tori Soudan Shoe Collection is about timeless sophistication and sexy, fearless style. For Tori, shoes are emotional and she designs stories. Her designs, which are handmade in Italy by master artisans, are also evocative of her love of art, photography, fashion and exotic destinations, all of which translate into a heady dose of color, texture, wit and directional detailing, be it architectural shapes or a provocative combination of unique skins and opulent fabrics.

“I love creating dimensions in my designs. I play with light and reflection, smooth versus soft surfaces and sheen versus matte, as it’s essential to me to move beyond the ordinary into something that denotes distinction,” she says.

Tori believes that women should dress from the shoes up, and with every collection she passionately gives them a reason to do so.

Check out her unique styles at ToriSoudan.com.
