The Decorated Toilet Seat Museum

An unusual museum dedicated to toilet seats in Texas has recently come about on the internet. Barney Smith’s Toilet Seat Art Museum contains over 700 hand decorated or novelty toilet seats.

Every toilet seat that Smith creates is individual much like the unique novelty toilet seats available at heatandplumb.com. The retired plumber found that an easy and cheap way of fulfilling his artistic flair was to decorate damaged toilet seats. Smith has been collecting and decorating toilet seats for over 40years and has no plans to stop.

This unconventional museum could give anyone planning to redecorate new inspiration. A novelty toilet seats could give a new lease of life to your bathroom. Mr Smith’s museum has many toilet seats dedicated to certain events or specific mementos, there is also the opportunity to create toilet seats that are unique to you, and he is open to suggestions and is happy to make them on suggestions of visitors to his toilet seat museum.

There are many other museums dedicated to toilets and toilet seats; for example, The Sulabh Museum of Toilets in Dubai. The toilet museum contains a rare collection of facts, pictures and the historic evolution of the toilet dating back to 2500 BC. The museum chronologically lists a history of the developments of the toilet. It also contains expansive displays of toilets as they advanced but no mention has been given to their display of toilet seats as they may have advanced through the years.

Like the toilet seat museum in Texas, there is also a museum that contains toilets in Stoke-on-Trent England, the county that is the biggest manufacturer of three of the worlds best known toilet manufacturers. The purpose of this museum is not the same as the others; it aims to preserve the production of British sanitary ceramics and toilet production.
