I should dedicate an entire post just to curtain rods, because after this
experience, I think I know every single option of inexpensive curtain rod We respect your email privacy
options in the greater Austin area. That post is for another day though.
Let me just say that the cheapest options I found were Wal-Mart and
IKEA. But my DIY version is significantly cheaper than both of those. CURRENT GIVEAWAY:

DIYing a Curtain Rod:
I headed to Home Depot on a mission to find a practical inexpensive
solution to my curtain rod dilemma. Part of my problem is that I needed
a VERY LONG curtain rod; 113 inches to be exact. You can’t exactly buy
rods that are almost 10 feet long at Wal-Mart. Trust me, I tried.
At Home Depot I found a variety of objects that could work, but in the
end the heavens parted and I stumbled on Electrical Conduit.

Bless the person that invented this light weight, sturdy, and extremely
inexpensive product!
It was exactly what I was looking for; 10 feet long, light weight, metal,
and the best part, only TWO DOLLARS.

4. But let me back up for a sec. I first considered PVC pipe. I’ve seen it
done before, but I was worried that the weight of the curtains would
eventually make the PVC bow or sag. Also, PVC is plastic which would
require an additional step to paint. I considered buying a wooden dowel
rod, but scratched that plan because I just didn’t like it. I also strongly
considered plumbing pipe, which I almost bought before stumbling upon
the Electrical Conduit. The plumbing pipe was very heavy though and
was significantly more expensive.
In the end, in my humble opinion, if you need custom curtain rods,
Conduit is 100% the route you should go if you don’t want to spend
fifty bucks. It can be found on this isle:

5. I bought the conduit that was 1/2″ x 10′.
To cut conduit to size you’ll need a pipe cutter. I bought the absolute
cheapest one I could find. It was $6, and worked about as well as you’d
expect a $6 pipe cutter to work. The job got done though, and I’m not
complaining!
Search on this blog...
To create a custom curtain rod you’ll need to figure out how long to cut
the rod. Don’t forget to keep in mind the width of each of the finials
sticking out on either side as well. My rod needed to be 113″.

Check out my series:
I ended up using pliers to tighten the knob each time and vice grips to
hold the tubing while I forced the cutter around the pipe.
The pipe cutter made a very smooth cut. I was actually impressed that
the edge of the pipe wasn’t sharp at all. Double bonus for not slicing
my finger on the end of a sharp pipe!

8. Once the pipe was cut to length I just propped it up in the garage and
spray painted it, as well as all the curtain rod hardware. I considered
my favorite color, Oil Rubbed Bronze, but I decided on flat black so that
my curtains would be the focal point, not the rod itself.

9. I like to spray paint IN the garage so that no debris blows into my
object and sticks to it. I just propped the pipe up against the leftover
feet from my sofa table project.

10. I already had the brackets for the rod (I’m a hoarder… lol) so I just
spray painted them black as well. I’m pretty sure you can buy just
brackets at most stores, and if not, I see them at goodwill for super
cheap all the time.
open in browser PRO version Are you a developer? Try out the HTML to PDF API pdfcrowd.com
11. I also dug out some anchors and screws from my screw and nail stash,
stuck them into a used-up sanding block, and gave them a good coat of
spray paint as well.
Here’s a good close-up shot of the rod once it was dry. I didn’t prime
any of this stuff before I painted, but after doing this project, I
recommend you prime your conduit with automotive primer (it’s for
metal) so that no paint scratches off.

12. Once everything was dry I installed it and then got to work on hanging
the curtain.
Curtain Rings and Finials:
I found these curtain rings at ikea for only $2.99 for 10 of them, which
is the best price I found anywhere. The next cheapest option was Wal-
Mart. Their rings were $7.99 for a 7-pack, but they were metal, not
plastic.
If you are going to have your rings show, I’d go with the nicer ones that
are metal (or wood if you are going that route), but my clips were going
to be hidden, so the plastic ones were great.
open in browser PRO version Are you a developer? Try out the HTML to PDF API pdfcrowd.com
13. Also, I totally scored on finials at ikea. I’ve never seen finials there
before, so I guess they are a brand-new product. They have two
options, a solid metal curvy one, or clear glass orb ones. I chose the
clear glass ones. Both options are only $5.99 for the 2-pack. The next
closest thing I found was at Home Depot for basic round unfinished
wood ones (ugly) for $10 for a 2-pack.

14. Attaching the Curtain Rings:
I originally saw this idea over at Thrifty Decor Chick, but I can’t find the
specific post. So anyway, this was her idea, I just copied it.
I want Pinch Pleat Curtains for my dining room, but they seem like a
whole lot of hassle to make them, so I just “faux” made them. So easy!
Here’s the final look, and then I’ll show you how I did it.
open in browser PRO version Are you a developer? Try out the HTML to PDF API pdfcrowd.com
15. First, lay out your curtain flat on the ground and lay the rings under
(above?) it. You want to make sure you get the spacing even. I eye-
balled this step. You don’t need to be totally precise here.
When you attach the clips you are going to clip them on the back of the
curtain, not the top edge. This creates the pleat look.
open in browser PRO version Are you a developer? Try out the HTML to PDF API pdfcrowd.com
16. To attach the rings, pinch the section of curtain you want the ring to be
attached to, then just clip the ring right onto the pinched fabric. Make
sure you set your rings low enough that they will barely show over the
top of your curtain.
open in browser PRO version Are you a developer? Try out the HTML to PDF API pdfcrowd.com
17. That’s it. It’s so easy. Now just gather them all up and slide them onto
your rod that you’ve already set on top of your brackets.

19. of the pipe.
From there, slide your finials on, tighten them down with a tiny
screwdriver, and you are done!

20. I know I showed you a lot of steps, but trust me, this was an easy
project. It did take some time, but the amount of money I saved was
so worth it. Here’s the cost break-down for ya:
Electrical Conduit: $2
Finials (2-pack): $6
Brackets and screws: FREE
Grand Total for the entire Curtain Rod: $8
EIGHT DOLLARS!!!!
Trust me when I say to purchase a 10′ curtain rod could cost you
anywhere from $40 – $80, if not more! I saved boo-koos of moola here.
So there you go. A complete step-by-step tutorial on how to make your
own $8 Curtain Rod.
* I want to add that you can purchase expandable rods that pull out to
about 10 feet, but I personally hate extendable curtain rods. They leave
a seam down the middle of your rod where the two ends meet, and I
don’t like that at all! I want my curtain rod to be one solid piece
without any seams across it. This is why it was such an ordeal for me to
find a 10′ rod. You can’t really buy rods that long at very many places,

21. so they are very expensive.
I hope I was able to give you some useful tips that you can use in your
own home!

All our rods at the lake are made from conduit. Easy, inexpensive and sturdy.

Drapes are beautiful and just the right splash of color!!

Thanks for the tip on the electrical conduit! The rod looks great, especially with
those glass orbs on the ends.
I’ve also rigged multiple rods together to cover a really long window before. Our first
apartment had lots of small windows so we had lots of the small curtain rods. I took the ends
off and pieced a few of them together to cover large windows at our next place. Just another
option, but your version looks much more professional!

Also, your beautiful faux-pinch pleats are actually called ripple folds! So you can tell people
you have ripple-fold draperies in your dining room and they will be uber impressed.

Wish I would’ve thought about using that conduit when I did mine this past year! I have a 12

handrail…covered with metallic bronze spray paint and no one can tell the difference!
Except my check book, that is!
