It is meant to be decorative, not useful. lol Having said that, I wouldn't waste my time.

Those type of designs have been around awhile. I did one as a gag gift for one my co-workers. She got a kick out of it and she displays it in her bathroom...........not for use unless extreme measures are necessary.

You only embroider on a couple sheets of toilet paper folded together. I made them as gag Christmas gifts several years ago. The recipient can tear the sheet with the embroidery off and throw it away and use the rest of the roll.

I received a roll of embroidered t.p. in my ( secret Santa) gift package last year. I placed it on the back of the toilet as part of the Christmas decorations. After the holidays it was put away with everything else. Seems like my ( Santa) did some work to create it for me. I don't think it would be that easy to embroider on anything that ( fragile)

Could be a cheap (sort of) material to practice on or preview a design. I wouldn't' t waste my thread on it anyway.
