She Used a Ceramic Swan to Hide This Major Bathroom Eyesore (You’re Likely Missing It!)

As someone who is keen on every single detail looking perfect (type A, I guess!), I spend a lot of time poring over my bathroom — especially when I know I’m having guests over. Think about it: Beyond an entryway and your living room (and maybe your kitchen, too!), people spend the most time in a bathroom. I want to make sure mine leaves a great impression, which is why I’m one of the many people who are obsessed with finding fashionable solutions for their toilet bolts (yes, really!). I first discovered that toilet bolt covers were trending earlier this summer — now, I’m falling in love with a newly buzzy option that’ll have you starting a collection.

“Wait … what?! If you love whimsical home details, this one’s for you,” the caption of a recent post from @interiorjems reads. The video shows a gorgeous ceramic swan covering the visible bolt on the creator’s toilet. “It’s one of those tiny touches that makes a bathroom feel so much more custom, and I guarantee people will ask you where you found it.”

They may look like something you’d stumble upon at a flea market or in an antique store, but these ceramic swans are actually available on Amazon for under $20. You can pick up a set of two in either white, black, or black and white for just $19.99.

They’re designed to fit over a variety of standard bolts and are the perfect solution for hiding rust, grime stains, or replacing cracked or missing bolt caps. In fact, some people might not have to remove the existing cap at all, according to @interiorjems. “My existing white toilet bolt cover fit inside the swan perfectly, so I just slipped it over the top. I didn’t have to remove the original cover at all.”

These swans are just one of many ceramic designs you can find to cover old, unattractive toilet bolts. There are actually so many available on Amazon, you might find yourself coming up with reasons to buy several — change them out seasonally, or swap them when you host new guests!

If you’d like to stick to a bird theme, you can pick up a set of adorable ceramic ducks to go with your swan covers. These little guys feature a pop of yellow, drawing the eye down to them; they’ll make anyone who enters the bathroom smile.

Or you could choose something a bit louder and kitschier with pink flamingos. You put them in your yard — so why not put them in your bathroom, too? “Am I absolutely very happy that I found these and bought them? Absolutely,” one Amazon reviewer wrote about the flamingos. “And do I think you would be equally as happy if you made the same purchase? I absolutely do. Highly suggest you make the purchase. Give yourself a little extra smile when you look at the ground.”

Toilet bolt covers are totally superfluous, but once you purchase a pair, you’ll be hooked! They conceal an eyesore you probably didn’t think about until now. Plus, they add so much joy to your bathroom, you’ll never want to live in a home without them.
