Leave it alone, I take it you are not married yet This is most likely a starter home, save your money, live in the house as is, Enjoy life, then in Time Sell it, cause short of a complete remodel, the next buyer want like It either, but it want be a deal breaker
I would Embrace them! Just change out the lights for a brushed or satin nickel or brass since that's back in. You can also find great spray paint for the lights too if you like them or are on a tight budget. I'd definitely paint the mirror too but probably black and black goes with any other color you use. Just think about it like this, a lot of people are paying a lot of money to have marble in their bathrooms and while it's not marble it has that look. Good luck with what ever you choose!
We had this in our farmhouse bathroom...found it practically indestructible...I would leave it for now and change mirror (or is it a medicine cabinet?) and put some different scounces up...Or paint mirror frame and scounces that you have now and look for new chimneys
I'm with Jimmy, save your money for now. You can pick up inexpensive glass globes to update the lighting, and maybe take the mirror apart and spray paint the frame. Best of luck.
One thought would be to prime it & paint it using Ralph Lauren "suede" if you like texture. Also if you're not afraid of whats behind it, remove & use bead board for the bottom 36" or 48" (sheets come in 48" I think) and paint the remaining walls. Obviously it time for new lighting fixtures.
I have the same ugly paneling. I wallpapered mine but that was 20 years ago. Am going to remove and prime and paint until we gut our bathroom and remodel. Good luck. Don't worry bout the connecting strips on the panels. You can paint or work them with whatever you cover the walls with.
PLEASE does anyone know the name of the designed wall pictured above, we had it in my bathroom as a kid and I've been looking everywhere for it,or at least pictures of it
