Thrifty Curtain Rods - Electrical Conduit |
|
|
Using electrical conduit to hang your curtains is super inexpensive and it has that industrial look. It can be purchased at your home improvement store in 10 foot lengths for a little more than a dollar for the entire piece. You can easily cut to fit with a simple pipe cutter or hacksaw. Remember to file down ends. Then use larger screw eyes or hooks mounted into the wall or window frame to slide the conduit through. Lastly, I purchase inexpensive rubber furniture feet for outdoor patio furniture; these I put on the ends of conduit to prevent it from sliding out of the wall hooks. :)

RE: Thrifty Curtain Rods - Electrical Conduit
Cool ideas! You could use rebar as a curtain rod. It has that rustic look.

I do the same thing! I get the plastic PVC pipe, it's white and you can buy the end caps for a dime and for a corner I even did a 90 degree turn, with the connector for that... super easy and cheap.
I'm thinking of making some kind of trellis for the yard this summer with it too.
