Some days call for more than one reminder, and this design was made with exactly that in mind. Five short instructions circle a bouquet of sunflowers like a compass: be brave, be true, be happy, be you, be kind. It reads like a note someone would tuck into a lunch bag or leave on a mirror before a hard day at work, a first day at a new school, or a season where everything feels like it is changing at once. The sunflowers do the softening; the words do the steering.
Five phrases, be brave, be true, be happy, be you and be kind, curve in a dotted black ring around a central watercolor bouquet of yellow sunflowers, green leaves and a small bee. The lettering is bold black caps in a hand-drawn style, simple enough to let the flowers carry the color. It is shown on both a heather grey and a white crewneck sweatshirt.
It suits someone who wants a whole pep talk in one design: a graduate starting something new, a teacher setting the tone for the year, or a friend going through a rough stretch who could use all five reminders at once. Sunflowers make it feel like summer no matter the season, so it works on a crewneck for cooler weather or a lighter tee once summer returns.
