À propos de ce contenu audio

 In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan Blum and Krissa Rossbund sit down with Melissa Dulaney, a Charleston-based creative and art dealer known for her joyful, colorful collection and deep roots in the design world. Melissa shares stories of growing up on James Island in the 70s and 80s—an unplugged childhood filled with imagination, freedom, and creativity—which laid the foundation for her artistic eye and entrepreneurial spirit.

The conversation traces Melissa’s creative lineage, from a mother who encouraged hands-on art projects to formal art education and years spent honing her aesthetic. She opens up about building a business centered on originality, emotion, and storytelling, and what it really looks like to run a warehouse-based art operation while serving designers across the country. Throughout the episode, Melissa emphasizes the importance of trusting your instincts, surrounding yourself with beauty, and choosing work that brings genuine joy.

Street Style Takeways:
  • Creativity starts early: Melissa’s childhood—rooted in freedom, play, and making things by hand—shaped her lifelong creative confidence.
  • Art should make you feel something: Joy, color, and emotion are central to her collection and philosophy.
  • There’s no single path to success: Melissa’s journey blends art education, intuition, and hands-on business building.
  • Design is personal: The most meaningful pieces are the ones that tell a story and feel authentic, not trend-driven.
  • Behind the scenes matters: From warehouses to markets, Melissa offers a real look at the operational side of the art and design business.
  • Trust your eye: Experience sharpens intuition—learning when to say yes (and no) is key to longevity in a creative career.
