Rustic Crafts Made With Plumbers Pipe

I wonder if our grandparents or great grandparents ever thought that indoor plumbing would one day become a source for interior décor! The galvanized or copper plumbers pipe is certainly seen in so many rustic crafts now. In fact, my own concrete counter top is supported by a couple of industrial plumbers pipe brackets.

Since plumbers pipe décor has become so popular, I thought it would be fun to do a collection of rustic crafts all using plumbers pipe in some way. The projects are all small enough to be considered rustic crafts and not larger diy projects like shelving units or furniture. I think you will like the projects that I found.

You can also get creative with paper towel holders. If you don’t want one mounted to a wall or cabinet, just use a straight pipe and mount the flange to a flat surface. It could also be mounted sideways if you would prefer.

3. Plumbers Pipe Toilet Paper Holder
