And THEN I went to Home Depot, bought 3/4 inch copper pipe for $10 each for a 10 foot long piece, which the guy cut to what sizes I needed and I have curtain rods for $5 each. Another $6 for a can of rubbed bronze color spray paint, a couple hours later.... and BAM, now I have the same matching hardware for window dressings that I have for shelves. One curtain rod purchased new for my windows would have been more than the whole project! And the best part.....IT LOOKS AWESOME!!!!

Lowes usually has a good selection here in the US and it's WAY cheaper than galvanized steel. the edges are SHARP but a good metal file will take them right off since it's so soft. If these are going to be somewhere they can be handled, you can bet someone's going to want to reach out and touch them! :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09406354472055636861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-14730053847539289182013-04-16T16:26:42.418-04:002013-04-16T16:26:42.418-04:00This is PERFECT!!

That's what you'd see on real piping. The screws will be bigger so be sure to pre-drill. For the wall, you can just use two and epoxy cut-off screw heads in place for the other two in order to limit the number of holes. You can paint the bolt heads black if desired.trebuchethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12021535753036996211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-67914367076717681062013-04-11T10:58:09.348-04:002013-04-11T10:58:09.348-04:00Be sure to get the full TDAP (Tetanus, Diptheria, ...Be sure to get the full TDAP (Tetanus, Diptheria, and Pertussis) shot, not just tetanus.
