Steel pipes come in many different lengths and diameters; offering DIYers the perfect material to create unique items for their homes…without breaking the budget!
Here are 7 creative ways to use steel pipe in your home.
1. Steel pipe towel holder
Homedit contributor Emily designed a creative towel holder and shelf using galvanized pipe and a stained four by six piece of wood.
2. TV stand
Once you’re bitten by the DIY bug the project ideas just seem to jump out at you. Homedit blogger Emily used wood and steel pipe to create this beautiful, and functional “entertainment center.”
3. Toilet paper holder
Quick, easy and very industrial looking…what’s not to love?
4. DIY Shelving Unit
This easy DIY shelving unit is the perfect beginner project. Using wood, stain and “off-the-shelf” (pun intended :-D) steel pipes and fittings you can create this look in a weekend!
5. Lighting
Steel pipes can be used for more than just furniture and shelving. This clever DIYer created a unique light fixture for under $100 dollars!
6. Copper pipe
No, this isn’t galvanized steel…but we couldn’t resist the bright, shiny copper hue and slick design of this floor lamp. Bonus…you can DIY one for yourself!
7. Holiday decor
Finally, you could spend a few hundred to buy a ready-made industrial pipe Christmas tree…but why would you when you could probably make one of your own?
