While redoing my boys bathroom I got the urge do add an industrial touch. I had seen on Pinterest some industrial shelving so decided to search for some bathroom fixtures. Here is my take on them. The first thing I did was research the prices for this industrial piping. The piping was not bad. I was able to buy a 10 foot piece for 10.00 and have it cut and threaded for me at Home Depot. The flanges were about 5.00 a piece so that can add up pretty fast. I needed 6 for my towel bar, my curtain rod and my shelf. The elbows were priced fairly reasonably.
For the towel bar you will need:
1/2" black pipe cut to the size you want it.
(2)- 1/2" 90 degree elbows
(2)- 1/2" nipples
(2) 1/2" flanges
For the curtain rod you will need:
1/2" black pipe cut to the size you want it.
(2)- 1/2" 90 degree elbows
(2)- 1/2" nipples
(2) 1/2" flanges
Here is what you need to make the shelf:
(2) 10" (or whatever size you want) pipes.
(2) galvanized caps
(2) flanges
I am really pleased with how it all turned out and really like the look. The total cost was approximately $50.00. You can find complete instructions on my blog as well as access to 3 free nautical printables.
Here is a close up of one side of the towel bar.

I made a shelf using some industrial pipes.
And an industrial curtain rod. Make sure you visit my blog to see the valance I made from tea towels from TJ Maxx.
