Serenity and Melody Ellis are a dynamic duo, proving that age is no barrier to entrepreneurship. As members of the Society of Child Entrepreneurs, these two sisters are already making waves in their communities with their creative businesses, and they’re just getting started!

Melody Paints: Turning Art into Business

Melody’s entrepreneurial journey began at just four years old when she was inspired by watching her mom start a business during the COVID-19 lockdowns. She quickly mastered the art of spray painting and drip art, creating custom canvases that captivated local art shows. Today, Melody Paints has expanded to a wide range of art, from small magnets to large statement pieces, showcasing her talent and hard work.

Serenity Rocks: Creative Art with a Purpose

Serenity’s entrepreneurial journey began at just three-and-a-half years old with Serenity Rocks, where she uses fluid art to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind painted rocks. These functional art pieces are sold as paperweights and business card stands, with each rock reflecting Serenity’s playful and creative spirit. Serenity is always looking for new ways to innovate and expand her business, and her eye for detail and quality ensures her creations stand out.

Lemon Time: A Refreshing Venture with a Heart of Gold

In 2024, Melody and Serenity expanded their business ventures by launching Lemon Time, a specialty lemonade business. The sisters’ Tigers’ Blood and Blue Raspberry lemonades were an instant hit at their December 2024 launch at the Children’s Business Fair. What makes Lemon Time even more special is that the sisters donate 10% of their profits to the Society of Child Entrepreneurs, supporting the next generation of young business owners.

A Legacy of Leadership and Innovation

Both sisters share a passion for entrepreneurship and a commitment to making a difference. Melody serves as the graphic design director for the Society of Child Entrepreneurs, while Serenity is eagerly learning and growing through her involvement in the organization. Together, they are fostering a sense of community and support for other young entrepreneurs, while continuing to innovate with their businesses.
