Toilet Planters... oh so fun!

Okay, so some people say they're silly, stupid, hideous... whatever. I say they are good recycling and creativity put into practical use. Whatever way you look at them... they are hilariously funny, captivatingly interesting, and totally out of this world (or bathroom, whatever).



Pretty in Pink!
Hey, guys, these are for sale! How much would ya'll pay?

What a beautiful finishing touch to this countryside garden. =D


Oh so patriotic. This is the true American spirit! Freedom to be creative!!!


Now these are some artistic toilets....
So tell us, what is your favorite? Do you hate them all together? What first comes to mind when you hear 'toilet planters'? Is this a Southern thing only, or do ya'll Northerners find this awesomely amusing? Let us know in a comment!

  1. Haha it definitely is not a Southern thing only! There's people up here that do it. =D I think it's hilarious, but I wouldn't do it. Just not my look. I think it adds a country/ vintage charm.

    So if that's your look by all means go recycle that old toilet... you just might need a sign that says out of order on it! =P

  2. :D It reminds me of something I saw in the UK (I know that picture is around here somewhere). It was a bicycle with flowers planted all over it, in the basket, over the handlebars and on the seat! It was also surrounded by a huge circle of flowers.

  3. Haha.. I love it! Of course I've lived in Texas for 11 years so I love a lot of strange things. :)

  4. I have to say I hate it. I've seen only one person in the North do it, and it was about the tackiest thing I had ever seen in my life. I mean, absolutely HORRIBLE!
    But that's just my opinion. As harsh as it may seem. But you asked for it. :P Maybe in the South it's considered nice...

  5. Haha, well in the South we see a toilet planter and go "Hey!! Look at that one! Ain't that neat? We should have one of those thangs, looks real nice!" Or we say "Look at that one, don't look as good as ours, but's still real nice."

    And that may not always be the case, but it is often. ;)

  7. Oh yes! We have them in Nebraska and find them amusing. Bathtubs, toilets, and tires... :-)

  8. I concur, that they are funny and humorous as long as they are in someone else's yard. (hehe).. Until one has had their mother say, "Look there is a toilet, let's take it home and plant flowers in it."

    I'll say this much.. it's no longer funny. Because then your yard/house/home is the laughing stock of anyone who drives by. Not to mention, any possibly suiters for one's sisters (which I might add has yet to happen.. but all in God's timing). So toilet planters and nice and funny, as long as, they are in someone else's yard! :P

I have a bathtub with flowers in it, and I begged mom to put this old pink toilet we have by the tube with flowers....she hasn't decided yet....But the ONLY reason I asked is its in the back yard..so no one will see it but us, and I find it extremely funny!!! All we need is a sink...!!!!!!!!!
