+## Basics
+
+When using [Inky](inky.html) HTML, the `<wrapper>` tag will create a `<table>`, `<tr>`, `<th>` structure needed to create consistant full width backgrounds. You can add classes to the wrapper to targed CSS properties on it or target elements within it. The `.wrapper-inner` class is available to add padding to the wrapper.
+
+```inky_example
+<wrapper>
+ content
+</wrapper>
+```
+
+## Full (fluid) width header or footer
+
+Creating a fluid header with the `<wrapper>` component is pretty straight forward. Wrapping a `<container>` will keep your content bound to the width of the container. Add a class to the `<wrapper class="">` to add a background color.
+
+```inky_example
+<style type="text/css">
+ .header {
+ background: #8a8a8a;
+ }
+
+ .header .columns {
+ padding-bottom: 0;
+ }
+
+ .header p {
+ color: #fff;
+ padding-top: 15px;
+ }
+
+ .header .wrapper-inner {
+ padding: 20px;
+ }
+
+ .header .container {
+ background: transparent;
+ }
+</style>
+
+<wrapper class="header">
+ <container>
+ <row class="collapse">
+ <columns small="6">
+ <img src="http://placehold.it/200x50/663399">
+ </columns>
+ <columns small="6">
+ <p class="text-right">HEADER</p>
+ </columns>
+ </row>
+ </container>
+</wrapper>
+```
+
+Using this structure outside of the container will yeild a fluid width background that expands to the width of the email client's viewport.
