Where modesty is more than what you wear. It’s a way of life!
Welcome to Keepers at Home Boutique!
Thanks so much for stopping by. We're so glad you are here!
Our family-run business consists of Janice (owner & mother) and a few of my 7 daughters, Clara, Liberty, Martha & Ruby Mae.
I began sewing seriously when I was pregnant with my first child, making maternity clothes to save money and then creating matching mother/daughter outfits for myself and my girls. Folks would comment on our outfits and began asking me to sew for them. I then began a small business out of our home back in the early 90's called "Jumpers by Janice". "My daughters were sweet little models. After moving out of our home town in PA to Spartanburg, SC with our large family I stopped sewing due to settling into a "new life". A couple years after moving, one daughter found a sewing machine in the shed one day and decided she wanted to pick up sewing herself! After getting some alteration requests from locals we decided to start the business back up and renamed it "Keepers at Home" based on Titus 2:3-5. K.A.H. now has a few daughters who love contributing their part in the business as well.
Today we still sew alterations, custom garments and home decor items but a large part of our work has evolved into custom slipcover, indoor/outdoor cushion and light reupholstering work for personal and rental homes.
You can read about each of the roles we contribute to our team.
Janice (Mother, Owner, Master Seamstress)
I’m Janice, founder of Keepers at Home, based on Titus 2:3-5. I am a Christian first and foremost and strive to serve the Lord today better than I did yesterday. I am a wife of 38 years & Mother to 10 precious gifts and Grammy to 10 more. Raising and home-educating my sons and daughters for 30+yrs. & passing on sewing skills and homemaking to our daughters has been a joy and blessing to me. We have been doing a lot of traveling the past few years and it has been an honor and great experience to meet so many wonderful people from many places and all walks of life. Outer Banks, NC and PA are favorite destinations. I love smelling fresh coffee when I wake up and look forward to “10 minute vacations” each morning in my outdoor shower the hubby built for me. I cherish each day God gives to be with my family.
We are unapologetically pro-life, pro-family, pro 2nd Amendment and America first.
We appreciate your business with us!
Clara (Master Seamstress, Clothing Designer, right hand upholstering assistant)
Clara is 28 and newly married to the love of her life. She and her husband are renovating an old farmhouse on their 17 acres and she has been enjoying chicken farming as she cares for her 60 hens! You'll often find her working alongside her husband, doing something outside, practicing her bass, or making clothing for herself or others. She is Janice's right-hand seamstress.
Liberty (Seamstress, Graphic Designer, Content Creator)
Liberty, age 22, is on a journey to becoming a minimalist with an emphasis on simple homemaking, decluttering and master organization in our home + studio. Her motto is "making pretty things and making things pretty". She is mindfully paced and spends time in graphic design, hand-lettering, meal planning, coordinating events, and working alongside her Dad at the State House as his Executive Assistant. She's unstoppable with a coffee in hand. ☕️☺️
Liberty is a servant at heart and passionate about bringing justice to the pre-born. Her gentle, kind, and quiet spirit rarely go unnoticed. She is a gem and a joy to all who know her.
Our Linen Bread bag sets are cut + sewn by Liberty with you in mind. There’s nothing better than pulling hot Artisan bread from the oven and storing it in an all-natural flax linen drawstring bag. Thanks for stopping by!
Martha (Photographer, Media Production)
Martha is 20 years old. She loves playing the piano, singing and photography! After graduating high school, Martie (as most know her by) pursued her passion and began education through online photography classes. She launched her photography business in the fall of 2023 and is getting busy with clients of her own and continues to work with the rest of the team in the media production (photography, website + Sea-Gals vlog) and team Barista for KAH. Martie will usually have a fancy iced coffee in hand!
Ruby Mae (Seamstress, Model)
Ruby Mae is 19 and enjoys singing, spending time in the great outdoors, writing encouraging letters to others + recently picked up hand-embroidery! We like to call her the upcoming "master seamstress" because she loves designing + making her own dresses. She is also taking an interest in learning the slipcover side of our business.
In June of 2023, Ruby took her training and became a doula. She is now working to be certified in this field and watch her dream become reality. There's not much that she doesn't do for the shop. She is a very big help wherever she's needed!
