How to cover this sink basin on a budget?

I was wondering if anyone had ideas of how we could cover these pipes under the sink basin? We are on a tight budget so some options limited.

Thanks

You can get under sink free standing storage/shelves quite cheaply, or if it's to your taste you could do a very cheap sink curtain

Make a feature of them, it all looks very bland so do what I did when the tiler lovingly and beautifully tiled around a hideous 1970 green ceramic toilet roll holder while I was out! Yes I forgot to tell him to remove it.

I bought some gorgeous and varied mosaic stones and beads , and cut up a small mirror, stuck them on with super glue then grouted over. Tried grouting first but the beads were too heavy and fell off.

This is our inspiration for the downstairs toilet to have white tiles halfway up the wall then navy painting.

I don't know whether it would look good leaving it bare?

I've tried looking at stands but all seem quite expensive 😕

I don’t think it’ll be noticeable if you paint the walls a bold colour and do the flooring as in the picture. Or could could try fitting a towel rail under the sink - it’ll disguise the pipes and be somewhere to hang a towel.
