If you cringe over the thought of guests using your outdated bathroom, these simple tips give you a room you can be proud of.

Step 1: Clean everything
Clean everything -- the floor to the ceiling and everything in between. Throw away old or damaged items.

Step 2: Paint
Apply a fresh coat of mold resistant paint that is designed to be used in moist environments.

Tip
Cover an old linoleum floor with a fancy rug and new mat instead of tearing it out and laying down a new one.

Step 3: Replace shower curtain and towels
Replace a plastic or vinyl shower curtain with a cotton one and buy decorative hand towels for display.

Step 4: Swap out hardware
Swap out the old hardware on cabinet doors and install a new faucet and shower head.

Tip
Replacing a faucet and shower head is a pretty easy job.

Step 5: Frame mirror and mount sconces
Frame the mirror with decorative molding and mount wall sconces on either side.

Step 6: Accessorize
Fill a bowl with colorful soaps, place scented candles inside the wall sconces, and fill a vase with fresh cut flowers to complete the face lift.

Did You Know?
