"It's just the way my mind works really. While I'm hosing the yard I just think of these things, so that was that.
"Luckily everyone thought they were great as well because if no one else liked it I wouldn't have carried on through with it but I thought it was a bit different and quirky."
The signs have already reaped positive feedback from tourists arriving in town.
"There was a Welsh couple that were only just passing through Eketahuna, but because they stopped at the toilets and read the sign 'Eketahuna is busting to meet you', they decided to stop here for lunch," Mrs Hull said.
"They said it was the best sign ever and that's pretty cool."
Mrs Hull said the idea behind the signs was to promote Radio Eketahuna, the station that the toilet speakers play, and to "just let people know that we're pleased to meet them".
Tararua District councillor Tracey Collis said she had stopped a couple of tourists "just to gauge how they felt about the signs".
"One of them just cracked up laughing and said, I thought they were very punny," she said. "So they've obviously been received in the light-hearted humorous way that they were meant and they're a real talking point."
