Merry May 2023, my fellow gifted thrifters and thrifty gifters!
Third and last month of Spring, Iyyar and Sivan of 5783, Asian / Haitian / Jewish American and Mental Health Month, MerMay! The month of May Day, Workers Day, Beltane, May The Fourth, No Diet Day, Mother’s Day, Shavuot, and Memorial Day!
Yes, lots of thrifty themes to choose from. And for this post, I’ve chosen MerMay, where we celebrate mermaids and other merpeople. I love and identify with Merfolk, and sometimes call myself Mercroft. I have a cool collection of mermaid-themed things – most of them thrifted, of course – which I need to show and tell you about here at some point.
Today, let’s look at some of the recent mermazing items on Goodwill of Greater Washington’s ShopGoodwill.com site.
A classic sterling silver pendant. Is she swimming toward her turtle friends? And look at those fabulous curls.

I told you DC Goodwill’s Shop Goodwill site was mermazing! For seashore jewelry, other shore-themed items, and oh so much more. Same with their stores – but they only offer jewelry at SGW, so sail over there to top up your trinket boxes and treasure chests. In MerMay, and year ‘round.
Enjoy the end of your Spring and the beginning of your Summer. And please meet me back here next month, in June, when I’ll be talking about Pride Month and featuring some rainbow finds.
