Bathroom Ideas are needed urgently

I have just bought a house with a small bathroom.

It has a white master suite in very good condition but has those old white tiles that were
popular in the 80's along with green painted trim with the doors and wooden slats are on the side of the bathroom opposite the shower. There are lots of tiling over the top and am not
sure what is under it and what they may have been hiding.

I wanted to brighten and modernise the bathroom with minimal expense and work but cannot visualise what I can do for colours for the bath etc. Any ideas would be gratefully received :-)

Brighten and Modernize
- Artificial Flowers and adding Mirrors.
Small angled Mirrors and other mirrors brighten up bathrooms.

To Modernize the room adding new light Fixtures will do the trick!

Fresh Paint is also a great idea!

When we were having company over my wife thought we needed our bathroom remodeled.

We cleaned it out, pulled or cut the caulk off around the tub and re caulked it neatly.

Repainted.

Added a few nice items from our local dollar store and WOW!

Our bathroom looks nice!

We have under $100 into remodeling our bathroom!

I did replace the light fixtures as well, and my wife used steel wool and a tooth brush to clean up the faucets.
