Keeper of the Home

Welcome. We're so glad you've joined us here at Keeper of the Home, a site dedicated to naturally-inspired living for homemakers.

home·mak·er (n.) One who manages a household, especially as one's main daily activity.

As a homemaker, you wear a lot of hats. Your day to day duties as a household manager may include being a mother, a head chef, a math teacher, a laundress, a budding nutritionist, a toilet scrubber, a gracious hostess, a boo-boo kisser, a checkbook balancer, a gardener, a chauffeur, a master of the family calendar, a lost-sock finder, a jam maker, a gift giver, a board book reader, a beloved wife, and that's just the short list.

Homemaking is a beautiful, life-giving, monumentally important career. And?

It's a really a hard job.

To do it well, we all need regular inspiration and encouragement along the journey.

So where do you find your inspiration for homemaking? There are a lot of websites out there, telling you how to decorate your home like a Pottery Barn display window, make pretty Pinterest-inspired cake pops, and keep your home perfectly, sparkling clean with a detailed weekly schedule.
