More About Sweet Home Indiana Gifts + Crafts

We're a family of four and ecstatic to bring you Sweet Home Indiana Gifts and Crafts!

This shop has been a part of our family in some capacity since around 2017 when Mary Beth (mom and 2nd from the left) first became a frequent customer when Lora and John Matuska owned the shop. After frequenting the shop so often to see all the new goodies that come in often, Lora invited Mary Beth to work for the shop.

Mary Beth started working for Sweet Home around 2018. Occasionally throughout the years, Andrew (son and first on the left) would work for the shop to lend a hand during busy times. Maghan (daughter and first on the right) helped the shop establish an online presence when the pandemic first started to help the shop remain open by offering online sales. Craig (dad and second from the right) would come in to check out new items in the man cave and other unique handmade items.

All the while, Mary Beth became very close friends with John and Lora, and expressed interest in buying the shop one day so John and Lora could be one step closer to their dream of retiring in a castle in France.

Our family became the new owners and took over the shop on January 1, 2024 with the continued mentorship and support from John and Lora.

We're beyond thrilled to call Sweet Home Indiana our home away from home and our favorite part is meeting new customers and seeing the friendly faces of our beloved returning customers.

Would you like to add your business or organization to TownPlanner.com?

If you'd like additional exposure for your business or organization, we offer all kinds of options to fit your needs and budget. Do you want to bring more people in to your establishment? Why not consider a coupon or a promotional event? If you just need to keep yourself in the public eye you might want to think about placing an eye-catching full-color ad. You can choose your medium: the website, the mobile app, the weekly newsletter, our popular wall calendar, or any combination of the four.

Did you know that independent studies by the Verafast Corporation repeatedly show that at least 70% of all homeowners who receive our calendar keep and use it all year long? That's a phenomenal retention rate and makes sure that your business or organization is truly being put On Display Every Day.

With your account you'll also have the opportunity to post events that will appear on our website, in our weekly newsletter, and on our mobile app. Please remember that Town Planner is a franchise and all events are subject to approval by the local publisher in your area. As a general rule, our publishers are happy to accept non-profit events, but some publishers may have individual policies concerning for-profit events or events that compete with paying Town Planner sponsors. If you're uncertain about your event, please feel free to contact your local publisher to inquire about his or her policies prior to posting.

Remember too that we are a family friendly organization and reserve the right to reject any events that we deem inappropriate for our calendar or online media tools.

We want to bring the Town Planner to even more towns across America. If you or someone you know want to earn a good living while promoting local businesses and building hometown pride, please consider becoming a Town Planner publisher today!
