Sunflower, always different, always sunny!

We've turned ONE!

SUNFLOWER is turning ONE!

Thanks to everyone who believed in us, and who have witnessed our growth since we first opened on the 26th of September 2009.
How Time flies! And now with a bigger, better, brighter outlet at a Prominent spot in Basement 1-12A, we promise that things will only get BETTER! :)

Coming right up, we have a whole slew of fun and exciting activities to commemorate our special day with all of you!

For a Green Cause: We have officially kickstarted our one-of-a-kind Bag Recycling Program!
Everyone is encouraged to pick up a recyclable paper/woven bag from our collection outside the shop for future use.
Or even better, Donate your own and contribute in saving Mother Earth!

Everyday so many bags are thrown away, a recent survey stated that if everyone in singapore throws a plastic bag daily, that would amount to 423 tonnes of excess rubbish a year! Think of all the wastage, and the harm it would cause on Mother Earth!
--------------------------

Printing woven bags will just create to the problem as they are still made from new material leading to wastage, thus , BRING YOUR OWN BAGS TO SUNFLOWER! JOIN US IN DOING YOUR BIT FOR THE EARTH!



Birthday Activities!


1) $5 rebate for every $50 spent!
OR
Donate the rebate to our adopted charity " Make a Wish" which aims to fulfill the wishes of children with terminal illnesses.

2) Free Mystery Goodie Bag with Purchases above $20! Whilst stocks lasts!
