Community has always been at the heart of Homespun: Modern Handmade.

In addition to welcoming Spring and its much needed cleansing energy, we are SO EXCITED to welcome old friends and new neighbors to the 800 block of Mass Ave, where Homespun has been nestled for over a decade!

TOMORROW BOOK STORE

An independent bookstore is JUST what we needed on Mass Ave! As lovers of literature, we are thrilled for the chance to browse the shelves of Tomorrow Bookstore when they open in early April! If you just can’t wait to see them in person, you can order now from their website. Say hi when you can and pick up a must-read from Indy’s newest bookstore.

Welcome Back, BEST CHOCOLATE

Best Chocolate in Town is back on the block and as delicious as ever! Best Chocolate in town is no understatement, and our staff is happy dancing to have sweets and treats within walking distance from our shop. Best Chocolate is also offering chocolate making classes and more. Come give your sweet tooth its best day ever.

Peabody’s Emporium

While this sweet shop isn’t new to Mass Ave we are always eager to see what new plants, products, eclectic items, and curiosities are popping up next door at Peabody’s Emporium.

Bottleworks and The Garage

In the last few years, Bottleworks District, including the Bottleworks Hotel and The Garage, have given our end of the block a new life! Its awesome to see folks from Indy and beyond gather to share a meal from dozens of local spots, or play all day at Pins Mechanical Co. Don’t miss other great shops located in The Garage and around Bottleworks, like Good Neighbor and more. The Bottleworks district is a welcoming hangout for visitors and Indy locals alike. We can’t wait to see more friendly faces walking around the district as it gets nicer out!

At Homespun, we have A LOT to be excited about on our favorite end of Mass Ave! Come for a stroll and check out all the happenings with your favorite shops, familiar and brand new. We’ll see you soon!
