Jo Violette Jewelry Catches National, Local EyesBy Karen Parr-MoodyTheLeafChronicle.com

Clarksville, TN – Rogate Hadley, the owner of the downtown fashion shop Rogate’s Boutique, was at a showroom in Atlanta shopping for new merchandise. She saw some colorful necklaces made of sheets of acrylic.

“It looked so pretty, so we ordered it,” Hadley said.

She didn’t realize, until Jo Violette came into the store to deliver the jewelry, that it was made by a local.
