I have always encountered helpful and friendly staff here. The selection is wide and varied. The quality is superior, encompassing many artists, artisans and price ranges. You can find something in most any material; wood, metal, glass, ceramic, felt, etc. I really enjoy shopping here and have purchased many lovely items.

I went into 15 Steps a few days before Christmas to buy jewelry for my wife, only to listen to the…read moresales personnel telling story after story about how dumb and clueless and pathetic the guys were who came in to buy jewelry for their wives on the days before Christmas. A quick joke like that would have been fine, but they themselves seemed clueless as they just carried on yukking it up about how stupid we men are. So, I left after about 5-7 minutes of that and don't plan to shop there again. There are plenty of other stores and online sites where I can buy jewelry.

The…read morestore is absolutely adorable, and I love that they have an upstairs and an additional section selling Ithaca-based merch. I visit every so often when I'm in town simply because of how cute it is. I was happy to see they sell some local products, like a hot sauce I previously found at the Ithaca Farmer's Market. Their book selection is also charming - I spotted a bathroom check-in book for guests to fill out, which I thought was such a fun idea. If you're visiting Ithaca and looking for local or homemade goods, Sunny Days is definitely the place to check out! :)

As an African American customer I mentioned that it made me uncomfortable and I wasn't going to shop here anymore and I was disappointed in them because the rest of the shop seemed cool. The employee got really defensive especially when I started taking pictures of the bongs. He said he was just "a cool little guy" maybe I'm overreacting but I thought Yelp should know. If you're not familiar with black face I included an image. History.com says "Blackface became popular in the U.S. after the Civil War as white performers played characters that demeaned and dehumanized African Americans." #theepettyqueen #blacklivesmatter #decolonizeyourcyph
