Four styles: naturalist’s plate, blue technical drawing, pop, clean. The preview updates as you type, and it’s exactly what gets printed.

Frequently asked questions
What does the print show?
Your household’s toilet roll as a natural history plate: “Papyrus domesticus”, drawn on its holder, six numbered and captioned parts, a cross-section showing which way it rolls, and, in large letters, the official way in your house: over or under.
Toilet paper over or under: which is right?
No rule settles it, and that’s the point: every house has its own. Seth Wheeler’s 1891 US patent draws the paper going over, but its text doesn’t make that a rule. The print lets you choose, and the drawing follows your choice.
What can I personalise?
The variety name, up to 28 characters (“The Murphys”, “Nana’s House”), the official way, the year it’s been observed since and a motto of up to 48 characters, both optional, plus the style: pick one of four. The six captions stay the same: they’re the joke.
Which size works best for the loo?
A4 or 30 × 40 cm: you read them up close, and they’re the only two available framed, in black, white or natural wood. The plate reads like a page from an old field guide: at that size, the captions sit at eye level when you’re sitting down.
Can the print handle bathroom humidity?
The paper isn’t made for splashes: in a bathroom with a shower, choose it framed, behind acrylic glass, and hang it away from the water. In a separate toilet, an unframed print is perfectly fine.
Is it a good housewarming gift?
Yes: when two people move in together, over or under suddenly becomes a real question, and the print settles it in the new house’s name. It also suits a B&B or a holiday home, where every guest arrives with their own opinion on the matter.
Can I see the print before ordering?
Yes. The preview updates with every keystroke and every choice, and it’s exactly what gets printed: the variety name, over or under with the drawing to match, the year, the motto and the style.
