Reminds me of something mom made and put on our toilet seat every Christmas..

With the seat down there was a Santa face, when the seat was up Santa had his eyes
covered..

Would give anything for a photo of that seat cover...

Maybe it was a way of saying "Cool it dude."

Oh they were all the rage decades ago....I remember most people had them in their homes...something similar to that anyways...wall to wall carpet in the bathroom, plus the toilet tank, lid and the seat cover covered in carpet.

It's weird too think about it now, because yes, its really a germ nightmare if you think about it....and looks funny. But back then, they were so commonplace, you really didn't think a lot about them.

Yeah, mine too but the picture is missing the pink and silver metallic tropical fish wallpaper.

Isn't it a miracle that we didn't all die of E.Coli contamination before all the "enlightened" germophobe home designers started harping about flying poop particles on toilet seat covers? LOLOLOL

Those same bathrooms had the bar of ivory soap on the side of the sink that everyone used. Just a flashback!
