Hi! Can someone tell me where to find the metal pipes that we see everywhere to build the Mason jar type of light fixtures? In all the images I've seen, they are a very dark brown or dark grey, some are black. Are those pipes bought that way or are they treated to get that finish? THANK YOU ,

    Just go to the plumbing dept. of your local Home Depot or Lowes. They carry pipes used to connect gas lines. Just pick the fittings you need, and put them together. Most that I've seen are the rustic black color.

    You can always spray paint them.

    You can get them at any hardware stores but maybe try garage sales or ask your friends and family. You would be surprised what people have. You can clean them up and paint them inexpensively...have fun

      I tried but I have very little luck uploading pictures to this site . I call myself technologically deficit .  if you look at my profile and projects though , you can see on the island my husband and I did , there is towel rack on the island made of pipes that we spray painted too. Same material , different uses.
