Repaint the walls
A new coat of paint changes the whole look of any room. In case you have wallpaper in your bathroom, you need to remove it with the help of a steamer. In case you are painting the walls again, you need to get rid of sticky and dirty areas first. To save money you can paint the wall yourself. Make sure to buy the paint, brushes and other supplies before you begin. -

Refurbish wood cabinets
You need to refurbish wood cabinets and racks in your bathroom. Take some time to sand and stain all of the woodwork. You can also sand and then paint the cabinets in contrast to the walls. You can easily do this job on the weekend to save some extra money. -
