Standing on Elk Ave in Crested Butte, CO holding the poster I designed for the Sunday Farmer’s Market where I sell my HAPPY WRAPS! When I’m not making wraps, I am an artist and graphic designer. Feel free to check out my personal Instagram page below to see some of my work :)

Hello there!

My name is Gina English and I am the creator of HAPPY WRAPS. HW are a reusable, washable, biodegradable and long-lasting alternative to traditional cellophane wrap. Cover your leftovers, produce, cheeses, breads, and more! I believe what makes HW better than other wax wraps on the market is my proprietary plant-based (non-beeswax) formula. I have spent countless sticky hours perfecting a product that truly works and I am extremely proud of it! They stick the right amount of stick and keep your produce remarkably FRESH!

HAPPY WRAPS are made in Crested Butte, Colorado, a quaint and historical mountain town full of magic and wonder with a strong sense of community.  We care so much for each other and the beautiful land that surrounds us here. We may not be able to save the entire planet, but I do believe making small choices can lead to great changes. HW are a wonderful product to introduce to your home to align with living a more sustainable life!

INGREDIENTS: Candelilla Wax, Pine Resin, Jojoba Oil, 100% Cotton.

I chose to use a plant-based wax instead of beeswax because of how hard it is to consistently source and purchase humanely harvested beeswax. I aim to keep the bees happy :) Beeswax is the bee’s first source of food, who even knew that?! Creating a product which may harm the bees in any way was the last thing I wanted to do, so I experimented with different waxes and landed on Candelilla wax. This wonderful wax is sustainably extracted from a shrub in New Mexico and was the perfect fit for HAPPY WRAPS!
