1 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet, comprising: 
 a first panel to cover said floor and abut a first portion of said toilet;    a second panel to cover said floor and abut a second portion of said toilet; and    said first panel and said second panel providing continuous coverage of said floor around said toilet.    
   
   
       2 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 1 , wherein said first panel and said second panel form a hole to abut said toilet.  
   
   
       3 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 2 , wherein a size of said hole can be changed to abut said toilet.  
   
   
       4 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 3 , wherein said size of hole is enlarged.  
   
   
       5 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 4 , wherein said first and second panels include a weaken area to enlarge said size of said hole.  
   
   
       6 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 3 , wherein said size of said hole is reduced.  
   
   
       7 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 6 , wherein said size of said hole is reduced by overlapping said first and said second panel.  
   
   
       8 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 7 , wherein said reduced size is maintained by a fastener.  
   
   
       9 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 8 , wherein said fastener includes a VELCRO® portion.  
   
   
       10 . A device to protect a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 8 , wherein said fastener includes a hook.  
   
   
       11 . A method of producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet, comprising the steps of: 
 forming a first panel to be used to cover said floor and to be used to abut a first portion of said toilet;    forming a second panel to be used to cover said floor and to be used to abut a second portion of said toilet; and    said first and second panel being formed to provide continuous coverage of said floor.    
   
   
       12 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 11  wherein said method includes the step of forming a hole to abut said toilet.  
   
   
       13 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 13 , wherein said first and second panels are formed so that a size of said hole is adjustable.  
   
   
       14 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 13  wherein said first and second panels are formed so that a size of the hole is enlarged.  
   
   
       15 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 14  wherein the method includes the step of forming a weaken area in said first and second panels.  
   
   
       16 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 13 , the method further comprises the set of forming said first and second panel so that said first and second panel overlap to reduce the size the hole.  
   
   
       17 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around the toilet as in  claim 11  wherein the method comprises the step of forming a fastener to fasten the fist and second panel.  
   
   
       18 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  17  wherein the step of forming a fastener includes the step of forming an area of VELCRO®.  
   
   
       19 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 17  wherein the step of forming a fastener includes the step of forming a hook.  
   
   
       20 . A method for producing a protector for a floor surface around a toilet as in  claim 17  wherein the step of forming a fastener includes the step of forming a button.
