The Potpourri Bathroom is a collection of toilet pictures that didn't seem to fit into any other bathroom. After throwing them together in their own bathroom, I realized how what a nice mixture, or "potpourri" they made. Hence, the name. Can you smell it? Can you smell the potpourri? |

This picture was sent in by Lab Rat, whose sister fashioned these earings after the pull chain toilets from days gone by. Scroll down and you'll see a pair of outhouse earings made by the same jeweler. |

Outhouse earings made by Lab Rat's sister. No ear lobe should be without them. |

There are few things less pleasant than an ice cold toilet seat, that is unless the toilet is an ice sculpture and punch bowl. This ice sculpture was made by Steve Cox for Flush Fest 2006, a children's event featuring the talents of the Sound Safari Theater. Hey! Who spiked the punch?! |

This is the Poop Out Bowl Point Pen. The pen rests in a plastic base made to look like a plunger. A button in the back of the toilet causes a diver to pop out from under the lid. There's another version that reveals a creepy little orange cat-like creature. This is the perfect writing tool for those of us who like to compose great literature while taking a dump.
Can anyone say, "Memoirs of a Crapper"?
How about "The Da Vinci Load"?
No? |

Soft toilet paper is for pansies. Real men use the stuff you see to the left, an industrial-strength toilet paper inspired by the cheese grater. |

This is a toilet made entirely of balloons. Just the thing you need if you want to pop while you plop. |

Here's a toilet fun-fact from The Truth About Poop, text copyright © by Susan E. Goodman, illustrations copyright © by Elwood H. Smith, published by Penguin Group, 2004: "...pooping into a space toilet is complicated. Astronauts must swing bars across their legs to stay put." Who knew our back ends were capable of jet propulsion? |

I picked up this untitled work of art by Letizia Volpi in Amsterdam in January 2000.
I like this picture's positive message. On second thought, if this is implying that human waste is the best we can give of ourselves, then maybe the message isn't all that positive. Accurate, maybe, but not positive. |
