talking about cheapo bathroom reno... what can i do?
I have a totally 80s bathroom.
Don't mind the barbie dolls hanging on the shower doors...
i want to take down shower doors and use a curtain. (i am on STRIKE from cleaning those suckers anymore.  )
get a cheapo vanity and sink (the current faucets are put on backwards).
somehow paint the stupid laminate storage.
find a better light fixture (hoping that i can cover whatever holes are already up there)
can't do anything about the gigantic medicine cabinet, i am sure that it's not tiled back there correctly, or would it be?
new toilet too, but think i need the same shape?
holy gray man!!!
please suggest ... Image Attachment(s):

The pics are kinda small and hard to see, but maybe you can frame the storage with moulding to give it a craftsman/cottage look.
If you don't want to remove the shower door (less of a remodel) you can probably just put up a shower curtain in front of it.
A little paint and new fixtures goes a long way!

do you have bigger pics. kind of hard to see everything.
But I would start by taking down the shower doors like you said you wanted to do and put up a curtain you like and paint the walls. Then take it from there. It looks like a bathroom that needs to be warmed up and I know you love color. So go for it girlie!

When we redid our bathroom its really not that expensive for a toilet, new vanity, you just have to find someone to put them in for a reasonable price

There are a lot of things you can do. We removed our shower doors and use a curtain. It was really easy to do.
I can't tell if you have tiled walls or not, but you can absolutely hang up a new medicine cabinet.
To paint laminate, you can use something like this.
A new bowl and faucet are cheap and like another poster said, you just need someone that will install it cheap.
