DIY pipe crafts. Products from pvc pipes with their own hands Crafts from water pipes with their own hands

Furniture, greenhouses, vehicles and even decorations - plastic and aluminum pipes can be used to make useful and beautiful items for any country house! Useful even remaining after installation engineering systems pieces. Do not rush to throw them away - in our selection we offer a lot of ideas on how to give them a second life.

PVC pipes are a readily available material. They also have many other benefits: White color(most often, you don’t even need to repaint them), ease of use and the availability of products of various sizes, diameters and shapes. So if you wish, you can find material for the implementation of the most bold ideas. What else is useful to you in your work - fittings, a hacksaw, tape measure, glue, sandpaper will not be superfluous - to smooth the cut edges.

So let's get started!

Let there be light!

Candlesticks are perhaps exactly the piece of furniture with which you can start your experiments. Just take the pieces of pipes you like, fix them on the stand and you're done! You can choose any style - from deliberately rough, for summer cottages, to high-tech or even sophisticated.

Products are more complicated - real pipe lamps. Look what a variety! Anyone can make an author's lamp: you can make cuts in the pipe, cut out an openwork pattern, or simply connect several pipes in a fancy composition.

Israeli designer David Benatan for his collection of such lamps - KozoLamp - uses not only pipes, but also tap valves, with which the light turns on and off. By the way, the products are quite expensive - the "cheapest" of the lamps will cost $ 200.

For home

There are always a lot of things in the hallway that are difficult to neatly place on the existing shelves. Look - a whole wardrobe will fit on such a ceiling beam!

Yes, and you can save on the usual one - for sure, such a product from pipes will come out cheaper than bought in a store.

Yes, and shoes will look much neater in such simple shelves.

Folding chairs, easy to manufacture, will always come in handy in a city apartment - for guests, and in the country: you can put it anywhere in the yard or in the garden, they are not afraid of weather conditions and dirt.

You can design the most various tables, chairs, benches - and most interesting, and guests will probably ask how much this "designer" product costs.

Many people love to make furniture. But you must admit that it is one thing to work with wood, another thing is to assemble a product from pipes according to the type of designer. You can quickly make a budget bed or come up with something more complicated.

And you can also make compact shelves or a cabinet for storing alcoholic beverages - and it's easy to assemble and looks original.

Do you want a bookcase - please!

cut pipes pvc thin rings and stick them on the wall, it will be very beautiful!

With the help of pipes, you can divide the space by making partitions in the form of an openwork wall or shelves.

For plot

Country life always involves a lot of tools and equipment, which should always be at hand. Both small items and shovels can be stored using PVC pipe scraps.

With their help, you can even make a carport.

Bicycle rack (and big family there are always a lot of them).

Or the transport itself - a bicycle, a car for children and even a velomobile.

Yes, and a wheelbarrow in the country will not be superfluous - to transport building materials or harvest from the country. It is enough just to attach suitable wheels to the pipe structure - depending on the purpose of this device.

Useful for suburban area and a dryer for towels and linen made of PVC pipes.

And the site itself can be fenced off.

... Or make an interesting gate out of scraps. This is what he designed landscape designer from Seattle Scott Ackley for one of his clients. Due to the fact that the gate is transparent, the shady corner of the site has become lighter.

To make a gate, you must first make a wooden frame and nail it to a sheet of plywood. Then cut into rings plastic pipes different diameter(the designer got about 200 of them). Fill the frame with rings, finding the best position for each to create a tight pattern with no gaps. Secure the rings with clips. Cover the resulting layout spray paint. And then you can fasten the rings liquid nails and leave the composition directly in wooden frame, using it as a frame for the gate. A more durable product will be obtained if all these operations are done with aluminum pipes. But then you will need to solder them to each other and use them without a wooden frame.

For plants

A minimum of effort - and nice pots for plants will turn out from the pipes.

Or a whole system for growing vegetables, flowers and other plants using the hydroponic method.

In the spring, a rare cottage does without greenhouses and greenhouses. Collecting them from polypropylene pipes (they will need to be bent) and connecting elements is an inexpensive and easy way to get early vegetables and herbs. By the way, such shelters are also easily dismantled when they are no longer needed.

In addition to pipes, you will need a 6 mm film roll, fittings and several planks treated with an antiseptic, plastic ties (clamps), metal loops, door hinges and handles (for the greenhouse door), nails, screws.

Well, actually, how to make such a greenhouse, you can see in this video.

For kids

Children in the country are a separate topic, and we have already told you more than once how to organize them, so that they benefit from it, and you do not interfere with housekeeping. We propose to implement a few more ideas with the help of pipes. For example, to make such children's chairs, which will accommodate both their own and neighboring children, moreover, of different ages.

Crafts from plastic pipes for all occasions

With skill and a rich imagination, interesting and useful things can be made from any materials at hand, including plastic pipes.

Plastic pipes of different diameters are sold in any hardware store quite affordable prices. They are used in the installation of water supply, sewerage, heating, irrigation systems, and after construction or repair, unnecessary trimming often clogs the site, while it can serve excellent material for creative crafts.

Do not rush to take construction waste to the landfill - we will tell you what can be done from a plastic pipe to turn excess residue into beautiful and functional interior items.

What is good plastic pipe?

We will not talk about the direct purpose of the product, but about the convenience of using varieties of plastic pipes precisely as a material for crafts. Plastic pipes have a light weight are strong and durable enough. They are resistant to dirt, do not collect dust and are easy to clean. Products made of plastic pipes are safe to use even by small children (they do not break, do not have a heavy weight, do not emit toxins).

For creative works PVC pipes are more often used, which are quite rigid and easily connected with special nozzles and "adapters", allowing you to get collapsible structures. Polypropylene pipes can also be used, but their connection will require a special welding machine or compression fittings, and finished products can no longer be disassembled.

Methods for connecting pipes in structures

  • with the help of an adhesive composition;

The first connection method is characterized by simplicity, but insufficient rigidity. Before joining, it is recommended to clean the inner and outer surfaces of the pipes at the joint from dust particles and treat the inserted part of the pipe silicone grease. First, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops, after which it is carefully pulled back by 0.7 - 1 cm. The structures assembled in this way can later be dismantled, which is convenient for seasonal products.

The second method of assembling pipes is distinguished by reliable fixation and greater labor intensity. Work on connecting parts begins with the processing of the mating surfaces of the socket and pipe with sandpaper for better adhesion. Then they must be degreased with methylene chloride. The adhesive composition is applied along the entire length of the prepared outer surface pipes and 2/3 of the length of the inner surface of the socket. Finally, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops and rotated a quarter of a turn. For gluing, it is required to press the parts for 1 minute. For good fixation, all operations to connect two segments must be carried out quickly enough. The connected elements are left for several hours until the adhesive composition dries completely.

The third method is more time consuming, as it requires marking and preparing holes, but allows you to get collapsible structures with a reliable connection.

For corner joints and connecting several segments at once in one node, it is convenient to use a variety of fittings. Plastic pipe structures can be of any complexity using numerous tees and fittings. Consider useful homemade in ascending order of complexity.

Our review of interesting ideas is opened by the most simple products from a plastic pipe, which even novice masters of homemade art can make. In addition, such crafts require a minimum amount of material, and in some cases even the shortest trimmings can be used.

From scraps of pipes of large and medium diameter, you can make a convenient and practical organizer for office or workshop.

There are two options available here:

  • fastening with self-tapping screws to a wall or table, for which one end of the segment is cut off at an angle - stationary version;
  • gluing the segments together to form a stable figure is a portable option.

Additional comfort on the desktop will be provided by a drawing tablet and a laptop stand, which can be made from small-diameter polypropylene pipes.

Bookshelves are a special element of the interior. Their presence in a certain way characterizes the landlord. corner shelf in high-tech style will not go unnoticed.

From numerous short cuts of different diameters, you can make a patterned frame for a mirror or photograph. It is enough to glue the cut rings according to a pre-prepared layout, which can be applied to a sheet of cardboard. It can be floral patterns or something abstract.
