Pipe towel rack DIY for small bathroom

This pipe towel rack that my daughter created is just so cool looking and great for small spaces! 

Emily got all the pipes and connectors at Home Depot and had the lengths of the pipes cut to size at Home Depot. They installed the pipes onto the walls making sure to screw them into studs because they do have some weight to them. 

I love this idea of creating a double towel rack to hang more towels in a small space. The industrial look is just so hot right now! Wouldn’t our grandmothers just laugh at this idea of using piping as decoration? I just love how it looks. 
Decide how long you want the towel racks to be…hang your towels on an existing towel rack to get an idea of how long you want your pipe to be. Then decide on how many elbows connectors and /or ”T’ brackets and then finally how many flanges…(the part that lays flat to the wall). It is kind of like building tinker toys. Screw the pieces together to create the look you want. You can add pipe glue if you want them to be sturdier but Emily and Kevin felt like they didn’t need any 
How cute is this toilet paper holder! 1 small piece of pipe, an elbow, an end cap and a flange.

What do you think of the industrial look? 
Have you tried making any type of pipe decorative things in your house?

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
