Our Story
The Journey of Heartees Shop
Explore the inspiring journey of Heartees Shop, from humble beginnings to becoming a beloved boutique in the Philippines.
Year 1990-1995
Starting with Passion
We grew up helping our parents print t-shirts to support their chosen candidates during elections—campaigns rooted in the same values we hold today. Through it all, we learned the power of teamwork and the importance of delivering high-quality work.
Year 1996-2000
Learning the Digital World
We transitioned from traditional manual design methods to creating on the computer. We also learned layout techniques using Aldus PageMaker while experimenting with t-shirt printing—hand-painting fabrics and designing by hand.
Year 2001-2007
Mastering Design Skills
As our passion deepened, we dove headfirst into the world of digital design, honing our skills and embracing the precision it offered. We began accepting local printing orders, which pushed us to master layout techniques—carefully balancing typography, imagery, and negative space to create designs, but not yet on fabric.
Year 2008-2013
Global Resources
We began accepting design and layout jobs from global clients through outsourcing platforms, deliberately focusing solely on digital creation rather than printing. At the same time, we delved deeper into hands-on techniques, experimenting with spray fabric painting and sublimation printing to expand our creative toolkit. For six years, we worked in a family-owned printing business in Europe, blending remote freelance work with immersive, on-site experience in a professional production environment.
Year 2014-2019
Building a Team and Tradition
Upon returning to the Philippines, we gathered a passionate team of artists to offer digital design services for the global market. At the same time, we initiated some family traditions by printing custom t-shirts for Christmas and New Year. Alongside this, we explored crafting personalized invitations, hand-made keepsakes, and other thoughtfully made specialty gifts, blending creativity with heartfelt meaning.
Year 2020-2026
Investing in our Passion
We expanded our workshop with advanced equipment, including high-precision printers, a cutting-edge 3D printer, and a laser engraving machine, allowing us to blend technology with craftsmanship for superior detail and durability. This upgrade opened new doors: we began offering fully custom apparel with vibrant, long-lasting prints; personalized gifts like engraved keepsakes, 3D-printed figurines, and bespoke accessories; and full event styling services that bring cohesive, heartfelt themes to birthdays, weddings, corporate gatherings, and traditional Filipino celebrations—transforming our roots in campaign printing into a complete creative studio for meaningful, one-of-a-kind experiences.
