About Us
| My name is Jodi Swisshelm. Thank you very much for visiting my on-line store today. I hope you find it fun and easy to use. Keepsake Designs by JS is a super fun business for me, and it’s extremely fun and rewarding.I am a former elementary school teacher and my husband Scott and I reside in Springfield, Mo. I love creating unique gifts for friends and family. I feel that they are more meaningful if they are handmade and designed with careful thought.Keepsake Designs originally started in my mind when a friend asked me to make her a ring-bearer pillow for her wedding. In the months to come I made several more for friends and found that I loved creating a keepsake for them. Then the baby showers came by the dozen! I started to make a keepsake pillow with the baby’s name and birth date which became my “signature” gift that friends loved. |

| “You should sell these!” my friends always told me. But as any teacher can tell you, grading papers, creating lessons, and contributing to the education of youth takes a lot of time. So Keepsakes had to remain a hobby.I am so fortunate to now have the opportunity and time to take the advice of my friends — and to take Keepsake Designs to where it is now. We have been in business for 2 years.
My husband and I have an 18 month old and many of my friends are parents. I also have three active nephews and three very busy nieces — I adore them, and they’re all great “models” for me, too! They inspire me to create new and fun items. Thanks to ongoing support and input from my friends and family, Keepsake Designs is a successful reality. I love providing you with unique gifts and one-of-a kind items that truly come from the heart — gifts that will be treasured and passed down for generations to come. Each item is made with complete care and of the highest quality that your little one deserves. |
