In my many years of living in apartments and houses that tend to include windows (ok, they have all had windows), I've long found myself underwhelmed by curtain rods. If I do what's practical and just buy something affordable, the materials yield an almost hilariously flimsy product. If I squirrel away extra dollars for significantly higher quality curtain rods, I seem to suffer decision fatigue on exactly where to purchase them (after all, you don't want to spend a wad of cash on something so innocuous only to find yourself second-guessing your choice in the end).
While I'm a big fan of vintage-accented rods (think old crystal), I also badly wanted to bring a small bit of an industrial feel into my new home in Portland, Oregon. Industrial can be a bit of a misfit aesthetic when not in a warehouse-type neighborhood (I am not), but I found a way to make it work subtly with this one simple design replacement: Use a pipe instead of a curtain rod.
