6. Refresh Lighting

Lighting can dramatically change the mood of a bathroom. If your current lights are outdated, upgrading them can feel like a remodel in itself.

  • Vanity Lighting: Swap old Hollywood-style bulbs for sleek sconces or globe lights.
  • Overhead Fixtures: A statement pendant or flush mount can modernize instantly.
  • Budget Tip: Use LED bulbs for energy efficiency and a clean, bright glow.

Budget Range: $40–$250.
