Pipe Decor Round-up

I've been seeing so many creative uses for galvanized pipe lately.  Lots of resourceful people are creating totally custom creations with just a trip to the hardware store.

I love how these were done in the lighter stainless colored pipe.

But not just shelves...how about beds!  So cool for an industrial loft space.

 


This industrial farmhouse table is fantastic but don't think it would look great as an island too?

If you're not feeling quite up to the challenge of furniture or shelves, maybe start with something small like this industrial-chic candelabra.  This looks totally doable and a great way to get familiar with the different pipe components.
 

Are you into this look or do you think it's just a passing fad?  I appreciate the creativity with all these things and how they can provide a low cost, custom solution.

Dina - thanks for the timely post. I ordered grommet outdoor drapes for my screened porch and had already thought about using pipe to hang them - this is so helpful!

So funny you posted about this today. Just yesterday I saw a pin of a piped bookcase and thought it looked awesome. Love the industrial vibe it brings. It'd look really cool in a boy's room.

I'm loving the pipe four poster bed above all the other uses--I think this use, in the way the textiles and furniture in the room are eclectic, keeps the bed from reading too industrial.
