Melissa Gullatte- Owner & Designer
Melissa’s artistic journey began at a young age- she was constantly drawing and painting on every scrap of paper she could find! With degrees in Studio Art and Business from Auburn University, she launched Gracefully Made Art during her senior year. As a majorette in the Auburn University Marching Band, Melissa’s passion for all things Auburn and collegiate blossomed, sparking the creative direction of her business. Every piece at Gracefully Made Art is hand-painted by Melissa herself, reflecting her unique blend of artistic talent and business savvy. Each design is crafted with care, creativity, and a deep love for her collegiate roots.

Peyton Owens- social media
Peyton is originally from Birmingham, AL and attended Auburn University! She first applied to Auburn as a fashion major but graduated with her B.S. in Rehabilitation & Disability Studies and now she is obtaining her Doctorate in Occupational Therapy at UAB! With that being said, she still loves all things creative & keeping up with the trends so she is so thankful for her role here at GMA to allow her an outlet to create & share our beautiful items! At Auburn, she was also a majorette in the AUMB, a member of the Gamma Rho chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha, & a WING with the EAGLES Program - all which she is still so proud of! You can usually find her on a long walk, somewhere with good food & drinks with her best friends, or at home watching reality TV her cats!
