Coat Hooks, Towel Bars and Mirrors

This post covers multiple weekends of working the fit-and-finish punch list.

Coat & Towel Hooks

At the end of last year I scored a really good price on rigging hooks -- less than $2/each. It took a while to get the 3/8-inch iron pipe fittings and bars so that I could complete them. But very pleased with how it all turned out.

Towel Bars

The towel bars are also made of iron pipe. The black iron pipe is filthy when you buy it -- oil and grime. I use a paint stripper to clean the oil and debris of it. Then I assemble the pices -- a floor/wall flange, street elbow, straight pipe and cap.

Then I sealed them with Rustoleum clear coat so they don't rust. Because they only mount to the wall on one side, I make sure to get at least 2 of the 4 screws into a wall stud (I don't trust molly screws unless I'm forced to).

Mirrors

Katie took a LONG time choosing mirrors. But after they finally arrived, there was a lot less involved getting the mirrors installed.
