PVC Pipe Photography Backdrop Stand

Filed Under: Crafts, Photography, Tutorials

I can not believe I have waited so long to do this. I have seen several DIY PVC Pipe Photography Backdrop Stand posts, but never took the time to go to the store and buy the materials. I used this tutorial. I love that this backdrop stand is so easy to take apart , store and transport.

PVC Pipe Photography Backdrop Stand

I went to our local Lowes and purchased my materials. It came in a over $20 because I bought the bag of clamps.

Here is what you will need:

{3} 10ft of 3/4 inch PVC Pipes

{2} 90 Degree Slip on Elbows

{8}  T-Shape Slip on Connectors

{8} Slip on End Caps

Hacksaw

Bag of Clamps to hold backdrop

I didn’t ask a store employee to cut my PVC pipes because I could fit the 10ft lenghts in my van but if you need them smaller to transport here are the cuts. When we got home we did the cuts in the same order listed here.

You can ask an employee for these cuts:

{4} Five-foot lengths

{2} Three-foot lengths

{1} Four-foot length

When you get home make these cuts:

{2} Five-foot lengths {done}

{2} Three-foot lengths &  {2} two-foot lengths {cut these from the remaining five-foot sections}

{4} 18-inch lengths {cut from the two three-foot sections}

{8} 6-inch lengths {cut from the four-foot section}

Assembly:

It is very easy to put together and take apart.  This is one part of the base. You will make two of these.

Next take the 3 foot sections and connect to each part of the base. Then finish the top part like this.

Extra Notes:

Make sure you get the slip on connectors not threaded.

Second part of that is to make sure you get the same size connectors as your PVC Pipe.

Buy some clamps while you are there. I just grabbed a $12 bag off different sizes and there are plenty in there.

Here is my PVC Pipe Photography Backdrop Stand in use this weekend at Carsyn’s 3rd Birthday Party. My black backdrop is just a black fabric shower curtain. I bought it a few years back for really cheap.

Voila! That is it. So easy and cheap to do!  Go today to the hardware store and make this now.

Prestyn’s last day vs first day. Another one tha Prestyn’s last day vs first day. Another one that needs a hair cut and he has been bugging me about it. 🤣 Didn’t really notice how long it was until I compared it to the other photo. Prestyn had a great year and has made some amazing friends. He can’t wait to start 2nd grade next year.

Carsyn’s last day of school vs first day of scho Carsyn’s last day of school vs first day of school. He desperately needs a hair cut but I love the messy look. He’s grown so much this year. Carsyn went through a rough time at school, losing his best friend in the classroom, and losing one of his favorite teachers but he has done amazing adjusting.

Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropical Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropicalplantsusa. I got it just after Valentine’s Day. I think it is time for a repot. I’m going to wait for the new leaf to harden up and then repot it. I have been super happy with the quality.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.
Sweet pea. Sweet pea.
Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶 It Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.
