For a flush new look try toilet tattoos

Macedonio, Ohio -- Toilet seats, the final frontier in home decorating, are now ready for new look, thanks to an Ohio firm.

The overlooked commode sparked the creative spirit in fashion entrepreneur Celeste Massullo of Macedonia, Ohio, who is now producing Toilet Tattoos to help the home's porcelain throne live up to its name.

Toilet Tattoos are reusable and come in humorous and classical designs. You can choose "Butterflies" or "Ocean Fish," or change the look of your toilet seat lid for holidays. For potty training, several designs are available, including one with a happy face and the optimistic refrain, "You Did It!"

The tattoos use electrostatic cling rather then adhesives and they are easy to wipe clean.

"Toilet decor products had not changed for decades," said Massullo, who thought shaggy, rug-like lid covers needed a contemporary upgrade. She has applied for a patent on Toilet Tattoos, some of which feature original art work, photographs and floating ducks.
