The Announcement Bar in the Sentiment theme is an elegant, scrolling marquee designed to highlight your most important messages right at the top of your store. Each announcement is its own block — you can add, remove, and reorder them individually. Perfect for showcasing shipping policies, new collection launches, craftsmanship details, or any other store-wide messages.
