Bee Happy Honey Hives was founded in 2019, my first year in beekeeping! Originally it was named Bee Happy Honey Products but I changed that since I only sell honey. (Get it now before it is gone! See Honey Shop to place your order now!)
Logo from 2019-2020
This first label was inspired by the colors I saw in the hives. Dark brick red is the color of honey bees’ proboscis, and obviously yellow and black goes without saying. Cursive was a new font to me back then so I wanted to incorporate it in my label.

The second label went with a more basic theme. I wanted something to look more mature so I got rid of the cursive and went with something else. This was the closest thing to computer font that I could do.

The previous label had my dad’s phone number on it so when he stopped working with the bees I decided to change to a label without his phone number on it. It was a hurried label, made as a temporary replacement but done on the computer to give it a cleaner look as compared to the previous hand-drawn labels. (This label has been lost)
Logo from 2024-present
To give me the ability of selling in stores this label was the first to be printed on a sticker. This was the first label with a logo giving me an icon that was simple, easily recognized, set apart, and able to be put on most anything related to my business not just honey jars. I pulled the dark brick red from the fist logo and a yellow orange that reminded me of Propolis.
The business card has a picture of a Queen Bee on the reverse side of it, this is a Carniolan queen that is marked with a white dot on the back of her to make her easier to spot (see Queen Marking).
Recycling has also been of large importance to my business as seen with the Return Jar Policy, by supporting my business and returning jars you help keep those bottles out of landfills and rivers.
Thank you for your time!
