Kendra Scott's Williamson County boutique reopened after a temporary closure for renovations, welcoming shoppers back to its newly redesigned space at Southside at McEwen with free scarves, chain-stitching demos, and a three-day celebration that ended Sunday, September 20, 2026. The store at 1556 McEwen Drive, Suite 118, is Kendra Scott's first location in Williamson County, and its refreshed look marks the latest sign of the jewelry retailer's growing footprint in Middle Tennessee.

According to Williamson Source, the reopening celebration kicked off Friday and ran through Sunday, September 20, 2026, giving customers who spend more than $100 a free Twilly scarf while supplies last. On Saturday, qualifying shoppers also received complimentary chain stitching from Kait Makes, adding a personalized touch to the weekend festivities. The Franklin store, which originally opened in December 2023, keeps its regular hours of 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. on Sunday.

A Storefront Built on Community Ties

Kendra Gives Back events involve donating 20% of event sales to designated local charities.

The retailer's roots trace back to a bedroom-based beginning.

Part of a Bigger Middle Tennessee Push

The Franklin refresh follows Kendra Scott's March debut of its Western-inspired Yellow Rose flagship boutique in Nashville's 12 South neighborhood, a store featuring a 40-seat cocktail bar called Beau's Bar and custom hat styling that marked the sub-brand's first location outside Texas, as StyleBlueprint reported at the time. Hoodline previously covered that launch in Cocktail Country Comes to 12 South, and the two stores add experiential features to Kendra Scott's Middle Tennessee presence.

The Franklin store sits inside Southside at McEwen, a 92,470-square-foot retail and restaurant complex anchored by a 45,000-square-foot Whole Foods Market, according to property details from Crawford Square Real Estate Advisors. The center has become a magnet for high-end tenants: Fox Restaurant Concepts added its 3,703-square-foot health-focused Flower Child restaurant there in 2025, as reported by Williamson Source in a separate article on the corridor's growth.

Cool Springs Corridor Keeps Growing

The McEwen Drive corridor sits within Franklin's Cool Springs submarket, a commercial and residential district anchored by CoolSprings Galleria and developed in the 1980s and 1990s, according to Livability.com.

That momentum shows no signs of slowing. A major mixed-use redevelopment at the nearby CoolSprings Galleria site is planned for the area. For now, though, the focus in Franklin is on the freshly reopened boutique itself, following the reopening celebration that ended Sunday, September 20, 2026.
