Today I am making a PVC pipe background for a party and I wanted to share with you how easy it is.

How to Build a PVC Pipe Backdrop

What You’ll Need

Tools
Pipe cutter
Tape measure
Permanent marker
Supplies
4 – 10’ PVC pipes 1” diameter
2 – 90 degree PVC elbows
4 – PVC Tee joint
Cut lengths
2 – 8’
2 – 4’
2 – 3’
4 – 2’
2 – 1’

The 2’ and 1’ lengths are interchangeable as feet for the backdrop. If you are in a tight location, the 2’ and 1’ lengths can be combine to make a shorter foot as illustrated to the right. If more stability is needed use all 4, 2’ lengths. There will be two extra pieces of pipe. This is to give options.
