So Kitsch! Owl Toilet Covers – Free Crochet Pattern

This is so ridiculously kitsch I just had to share it with you. I know for a fact that my Grandma would have proudly displayed something like this in her bathroom — and honestly, the more I look at it, the more I kind of want one too! It’s quirky, colorful, and full of retro charm.

Can’t you just imagine how adorable this would be in a kid’s en suite bathroom? (Yes, my kids are lucky enough to have their own!) It’s the kind of fun, cheeky decor that brings a smile every time you walk in.
