I like how the vendors take pride in their merchandise and displays. It's also very friendly.

Not too pricey. 10/10 will comeback.

I'm almost never on The Commons anymore, but I had a gift certificate for this store that I needed…read moreto use... so when I was able to get out of work a little early one day recently, I decided to stop for my first visit to Home Green Home. And what a delight it was! It's a really lovely and welcoming shop with plenty of plants, books, meditation or yoga supplies, bedding, prints, and more. With a focus on eco-friendly products, the prices aren't necessarily for the budget conscious, but you can rest assured that the quality is there. The staff here are happy to help, but also let you wander the store without being overly pushy or hovering. I got into a conversation with one of them regarding some of the plants they had available - and she was quite excited to show me a new plant that she had just learned about. I ended up buying a couple plants (among other items), as I had managed to find a cebu blue pothos tucked away upstairs, as well as a white princess philodendron on display downstairs... both of which had been on my plant wishlist for a while. TL;DR. It's probably a good thing that I'm not on The Commons often, because it'd be very easy for me to spend way too much money here (especially on the bedding items, as I'm a sucker for comfy blankets and all that). That said, I'm definitely adding Home Green Home to my list of favorite Ithaca shops. Highly recommend it!

This was my favorite place to shop in Ithaca. Good amount of street parking in the area, and the…read morestaff members are friendly. It's similarly sized to other college town artist co-ops that I've encountered, but their inventory has some of the best variety of mixed media I've seen, at an appreciably high standard. Jewelry/accessories, apparel, pottery/glassware, wood carvings, prints/paintings, wreaths, and more home decor of all materials and dimensions. We found the perfect souvenirs to commemorate a group hike we did during our trip, after discussing the merits amongst ourselves between three artists who depicted the same trail in their own approaches: linograph vs photograph vs watercolor. We also purchased some crocheted plushies and a magnet, and my better half talked me out of a piece of enhanced folded book art. To respect the no photography policy of many of the artists, I'll just note that the website's artist portfolio just represents a drop in the bucket of what you'll find. We'll definitely stop in again for more unique wares whenever we pass through the area.

There is pottery, blown glass, carved wood, and many more handmade items. It's great that many artists fill this space and their stories are shown through their info cards by their work.

Mimi's Attic is the premiere place to find one-of-a-kind items that add charm & style to your home…read moreat reasonable prices. A new store every time you shop, Mimi also posts updates on instagram, so you can keep up-to-date on what's in house even when you don't have time to pop in... which you'll want to do whenever you can! Our family lost our house to a fire, so we are "frequent fliers." Most of the furniture that we now have was purchased at Mimi's. The pieces we bought all have some small story behind them which we enjoy. Mimi's has been a godsend for us. Mimi's is conveniently located in downtown Ithaca, the staff is friendly & helpful, prices are reasonable and there's always something fun and funky to marvel at even if you don't take it home with you. There are a few prime meter-free spots, but bring some change with you in case you need to park on the street. The staff has tape measures handy, but if you're looking to fill a space at home remember to give it a quick measure to ease your shopping. Mimi's, at times, can be jam-packed full of good things and navigation can be tricky if you have mobility issues. Well worth checking out again and again in person and online!

As someone who owns a 110-year-old house, there are always little things I'm on the hunt for--from doorknob parts, to wood trim pieces, to light fixtures.

From salvaged lumber to old cabinet hardware, there's almost no end to the creative potential! On the upper floors, it's always fun to explore the furniture and fixtures (even though we rarely have room in the car to bring anything home to Buffalo). If you love old homes or old thing in general, you'll have a great time and probably make some surprising finds!
