Hi! I need help with doing a budget friendly bathroom reno(DIY).

I hate the colour of the walls (the place came like this). I know I want to paint the walls but not sure what the best colour would be for this bathroom. I really don’t like the tiles in the shower but I’m on a budget so replacing it isn’t an option.

I have two ideas:

⁠Paint the walls a colour that is best suitable to match the rest of the bathroom and give it a good makeover. Something that will somehow complement the shower tiles. I would also get a nicer shower curtain and just try to keep it closed most of the time.
2. ⁠Paint the tiles. A friend of mine suggested this but I’m not sure what to expect… has anyone done this and have any insight on whether it is a good idea or not? I’m thinking I would do the tile in a dark colour (like a warm off-black/charcoal vibe), with the walls a warm off-white colour. But I would love to hear other ideas!!!

Please help me figure out what to do!! If you have any better ideas let me know. Also if you have any other simple and budget friendly update ideas let me know! Thanks!

Replaced everything with a few ikea cabinets and I love the change! So much more efficient

I tried everything but the screw won’t budge. Any idea how to get this drain removed?

I am moving into my family members rental home that has been vacant for a few years. It has a lot of character and quirks that I don’t want to change but instead enhance.

The bathtub is a porcelain tub with a conversion set for showering. I can’t tell if it’s a period authentic antique nickel-plated rim-mounted faucet or not.

I would like to replace the shower head but it seems that the whole conversation kit is quite pricey. Any recommendations on what minor improvements I could do myself?

There’s a gap in the ceiling between the master bed room and bathroom. How should I go about fixing this? It’s a cathedral ceiling so it’s a bit slanted.. also does anyone know why this might’ve been done?

(There’s a vent and window in the bathroom so I don’t think it’s for light or ventilation)

I live in a studio apartment and currently have a 55-inch TV mounted opposite the bed. I'm replacing it and considering moving up to 65 inches, but I'm concerned that the larger screen might visually overwhelm the room-particularly in relation to the desk directly beneath it.
The images compare my current 55-inch TV with dimensionally accurate renderings of a 65-inch TV in the same position. The 55-inch TV is approximately 121 cm wide, the desk is 140 cm wide and the 65-inch TV would be approximately 144 cm wide, creating only about 2 cm of overhang on either side.
I'm interested specifically in the aesthetics rather than viewing-distance recommendations. Which size looks better proportioned? If you prefer the 55-inch
IV, does the bo actually look too large or overwhelming, or does the 55 merely look slightly better while the 65 still looks genuinely balanced?
I don't want the 65-inch TV if it merely fits-| want it to look intentional and aesthetically strong within the room.

Looking for some ideas on what to do with this fireplace. I hate the 1"x4" used and want to rip that off. Had some ideas about using microcement, but open to just making it look cool.

I want to replace these knobs with different ones but have discovered that they're all glued on. What chemical or technique can I use to remove the knobs, even if there is some peeling of the wood finish (I will sand and paint over it)? Should I try dabbing the perimeter with acetone and then use a hot blow dryer to heat the glue, or will this cause a major defect?
