Onyx + Alabaster Coffee Lounge in downtown Franklin is officially one of my favorite coffee shops!…read moreThey're well known for the Alchemy Latte with honey, cinnamon, and vanilla, which is really good, but my personal favorite is the O+A Latte with white and dark chocolate. They have rotating seasonal pastries and the inside atmosphere is a big part of what makes this place special. The downstairs space is cozy and cute, while the larger upstairs lounge is perfect for some rest after a shopping stroll down Main Street, coffee dates, or getting a little work done. Pro tip: if you have time, walk through their connected interior design space and home market to browse home goods and decor, and stop by the Alchemy Wall to grab a free scripture or inspiration card!

There is so much more good about this place. The decor, the coffee the people that work there, the…read morelocation, the ambience, etc... Unfortunately the "scent" is so overwhelming and gives us an immediate headache and nausea upon entering. Myself and many people I know have had to stop going there and it's such a shame because that is truly the only reason. It's not even that this scent is bad, it's not. The chemicals in synthetic fragrance do have a negative effect on everyone because they're endocrine disruptors, but especially those who are sensitive to chemicals. I'm praying that they stop using it and we can enjoy this place again.

When I think about my experience with b. blanton design, I think of the word "exceptional." I had…read morelived in my home for nearly two years, yet my very busy schedule meant I was living more like a college student than a functioning adult. That also meant that I needed someone who could not only bring in ideas and a good eye for design, but also who could handle the details, coordinate with vendors, and provide a full-service package. Brittney and Lauren did an outstanding job in our 9 months working together. They took the time to understand what I liked, what was important to me, and what was a good fit for the space. I'm a nitpicky person, and they were very flexible and willing to hear and accommodate my feedback on selections, yet they also knew how to bring me down to earth when my ideas got a little crazy. Their communication was clear and consistent, and I felt that I could always reach out with questions and concerns. Now, when I look around my home, a smile always comes to my face. I feel like I have a real home--a beautiful home--and I have b. blanton design to thank for that. It's been a worthwhile investment, and I hope I can call on them again soon.

I am writing this review on the heels of using (2) separate staging companies simultaneously for…read more(2) separate homes within the last 2 1/2 months. I am a real estate investor who does a lot of the legwork to market a property myself. Fresh Perspecives staged one of my investment homes for me at the end of May 2018, and I am giving them 3-stars instead of 1 or 2 for their excellent professionalism, fantastic organization and responsiveness, and the ability to get the job done well. The house they staged closed the third week of July and I was satisfied with the job they did. The reason I am not rating Fresh Perspectives 5 stars is as follows: I found their contract and scheduling tactics to be extremely rigid. I get it that they are probably a high-volume business and deal with a lot of unorganized listing agents or homeowners and therefore have to run a tight ship as a result, but now that I've shopped it around I see the difference. Secondly, in terms of the quality of the staging and beauty of the work, hands down my other property I just staged this week (with Interior Designer Dana Zarb) is far more superior in terms of furnishings, amount of detail, and beauty of the design; I wished I would have found Dana sooner! Today my senior photographer from Showcase that took photos says it's probably the best staging he's ever seen. And the kicker is for the same 60-day period (design, staging, de-staging, and 60 day rental), Fresh Perspecives charged 50% more than what I am paying today to Dana. What I learned when getting more estimates is that most every other stager "includes" in the initial invoice a 60-day rental of the furniture, Fresh Perspectives only 30. As a result, I am walking away from the Fresh Perspectives experience feeling a bit price-gauged when I could have paid a lot less and gotten a far better job. In summary, Fresh Perspectives provides an acceptable service, but there are better alternatives so do your due diligence and shop it around!
