Souvenirs that hold meaning
Welcome to Tail Bait Tees, a whimsical little corner of Etsy for mermaids, fisherman and Mainers!
I'm Rebecca Marella — born and raised by the salty sea. What started as a tiny pier-market booth is now a full online shop offering a variety of original designs full of coastal charm and sea-spun stories. We create mermaid T-shirts, cozy wearables, and one-of-a-kind Maine souvenirs inspired by our favorite local legends with a splash of pure imagination.
Our pieces are more than souvenirs — they’re tiny tokens of magic from the coast of New England. Whether you're dreaming of the sea or remembering a trip up the coast, we hope our creations bring a warmth when you're away.
Oh — and legend has it that our shop is watched over by real mermaids. Buy a shirt and you just might find sea glass in your pocket. Thanks for stopping by & supporting small, sea-loving makers.
Let’s make waves together!
Every design is original
Every tee tells a story
Every shirt is hand printed
