Visit Manic Mermaid at 5436 South Tacoma Way for ethically sourced finds, friendly faces, and discoveries for every age. Welcome to Manic Mermaid

A few stories ago, our main mermaid began collecting wondrous and fascinating treasures in her adventures throughout the earth. As with all tantalizing tales, our mermaid fell in love...although this time it wasn't with a prince, but with an incredible

community in the heart of Tacoma, WA. From this love that God put upon her heart for this area, a (not boring) art gallery in the historical Lincoln District emerged. This allowed our mermaid to not only be in the midst of her new family, but also be able to share and help and contribute to those around her. Now our mermaid resides by the sea down at Point Ruston continuing the work that was started on 38th st. Entwined in this shop is our mermaid's desire to share beauty & surprise & oddness with those seeking.

OK, these were two of my favorite spin the wheel moments today 🤣🤣♥️
The first one was a sweet family, where the follicly-challenged Dad won a gift certificate to the hair salon Bombshell Belle Beauty!! Last I heard his beloved was negotiating a trade for her gift certificate she won for Organically Grown Muscle 💪 🤣🤣🤭
Then Nikolas won Beignets from Radnor’s while Micah won a 1 month membership to Armor Athletics 🤣🤭💕 Sounds like a good balance to me!

Thank you for whoever left a super sweet surprise on our window sill today. What a perfect rainy day treasure to find!!!

Did you know that if ALL small businesses in the state of Washington went paperless for receipts…that it would be a savings of almost 4,000,000 trees a year?! 🌲🌳🏕️

This is one of the business decisions we made 10 years ago when we opened. We are more than happy to send you a text or email receipt. If you really want a paper one we can handwrite you one on a small receipt paper.

It’s the small things that end up being a big impact 🌲🌳🏕️♥️
