Back to School, Back to Routine… and Something New for Shielded Hearts!

Back to School, Back to Routine… and Something New for Shielded Hearts!

Today was a big day in our home—my daughter started 8th grade, and with that, we’re officially stepping back into the school year routine. Mornings are a little earlier, the coffee’s a little stronger, and the house is a little quieter during the day (for now!). It’s a bittersweet reminder of how fast time moves and how important it is to hold onto these moments.

While she’s starting a new chapter in school, I’m also stepping into something exciting for Shielded Hearts Clothing Co—my very first vendor event! 🎉 And I’m doing something a little different… I’ll be setting up a T-shirt Bar, where you can come pick your shirt, choose your design, and watch it come to life right in front of you.

It’s a fun, custom experience, and a chance for me to connect with the community face-to-face. If you've been following Shielded Hearts from the beginning, you know this brand was born from a place of passion—for family, for faith, and for standing strong through life’s storms. This next step feels like another piece of that journey.

Whether you’re juggling school lunches and pickup lines or simply trying to stay grounded in a busy season, I see you. And if you’re local, I’d love for you to stop by the T-shirt Bar, say hi, and maybe pick something that speaks to your heart.

Here’s to new beginnings, strong coffee, and shirts that say what you feel.

With love,
Dakri
