The Bookshelf That Grows With Your Collection

Add industrial charm to any room or home office with this pipe bookcase you can make—and shape—with just a few pieces of piping. Home Made Simple designer Kenneth Wingard shows homeowner Stacy how to piece together an urban bookshelf that has the ability to change and grow as needed.

After purchasing a couple different lengths of galvanized pipe, elbow joins and T joints, piece together the outline of your book shelf. Once you've got a desired look, screw all the pieces together, mount to the wall and add books. Watch above for tips and inspiration for recreating this project at home.

Kenneth Wingard has designed home furnishing merchandise for major retailers such as Crate & Barrel, Martha Stewart, Restoration Hardware and Target. Currently he's filming his fifth season as the lead on-camera designer for the Oprah Winfrey Network's Daytime Emmy-winning show Home Made Simple as well as his fourth season as a family member on Hallmark's Home & Family.
