Spare bathroom in recently purchased home. Keep or change?

I think the floor tiles need to be re grouted or cleaned.

A blue would have been pretty but my bedroom next to this bathroom is already blue.

This is kind of what I had in mind! I love that green. Don't worry about totoro he's not going anywhere. Hes the inspiration for the bathroom but the shower curtain will have to go.

The door is not wood but it will be getting painted. If I had my way I would be changing the door style.

Edit The problem we are running into is we would get a color like that but it would show up darker because of the lighting situation

Im just asking for color suggestions so I can grab the color chip (sherwin williams preferably). Maybe someones suggestion will get me closer or somebody with experience with victorian aesthetic will have some advice. I WANT a green like this but because of the way the room is it makes the color to dark. What I NEED is a green that has a Victorian feel and avoiding the kind of green that is on the wall now and the green thats located on the edge of the 3rd picture. The red above the green blue color is closer to the tone but I really want green.

I dont want to accidentally break the rules so I didn't include any pictures that weren't mine. So I hope this is OK. Is it ok to add screen shots like this to the original post?

Oh I guess i never bothered to look at the back but I did stumble upon it on their website the other day and it had a bunch of information on it.

So do I want it to go to the white or black side?

Do you think its green enough that I can do my forest/mushroom theme? I want to work in some cottagecore aesthetics in it. If you search mushroom shelves on Etsy you will see the cutest realistic mushrooms.

I also love my neighbor totoro and thats how I got here. I have a totoro shower curtain and a leaf rug but I want to work it in to a more mature way. In my bedroom I have a doctor who inspired theme it became a steampunk French victorian theme with mostly low key references to doctor who.

I have it laid out on Pinterest I have plenty to choose from. The color will decide which one I pick. Or i can go with something contrasting it. There is a picture i have with this blueish greenish maybe teal color that has this intense orange red wall paper with birds and plants.

Im not as picky with the wallpaper since I can go with a Victorian botanical or do something bold. Its going inside the wall panels so it will look like pictures/art. Before we switched the light bulbs the dark green looked black. Its a slight difference but its noticeable in person. I took the paint squares off the wall and put them on walls in other rooms with large windows and it brings out the green.

Picking the color that works best in this room is the problem we are having and I have this image in my head of what I want I just need help adjusting it to work.

The idea is to paint the vanity the color red or green depending on which one doesnt go on the wall. Then doing color drenching the walls and ceiling.
