Redecorating a Neutral Bedroom with $250 and Midnight Velvet Comforters
Today’s discussion is brought to you by Midnight Velvet. This is a Fashionista Event.
The Chief Blonde Remarks: Working with Midnight Velvet, I had the opportunity to update my son’s neutral bedroom. He has moved out and is now married. We had made a few updates to the room after he left but it was DULL, all beige and the comforter was too big.
So I switched up the comforter, pillow shams and dust ruffle to this beautiful Queen Sized Lisette Smocked Comforter Set from Midnight Velvet. Can you imagine a luxurious queen comforter set for $129?
The placement of the bed in the room was all wrong, it was blocking the door as you walked in. So the first thing we did was move the bed to the opposite wall. After that we decided on using the gorgeous Queen Sized Lisette Smocked Comforter Set as the base for our redo, and then adding chocolate brown and gray blue accents. Here’s how we did the transformation:
Steps for a Neutral Bedroom Redo
- Pick your base color (we choose the cream in the Midnight Velvet Comforter set)
- Choose your accent color (s) ( we chose chocolate brown and gray-blue)
- Figure out what pieces you already have (we were able to reuse the bed, the side table, the arrangement, the vintage picture, the bed throw and the brown pillows)
- Determine what pieces you need to buy (we bought the Lisette comforter set (C/O), the rugs, the blue pillow, the curtains and the curtain rod)
- Lay out the best arrangement for your room (we moved the bed and took out a large entertainment center)
- What is your budget? (we decided to just redo the bed at this point but in the future we will probably add a chest of drawers, a small desk and a side chair. Our budget for this part of the redo was $250 and we achieved that easily.)
Think Midnight Velvet for your Room Refresh or Redo
You don’t have to completely redecorate your bedroom to step up the style and great a fresh look. Just adding a Midnight Velvet comforter can transform and refresh any bedroom. Just look at how great our new guest room looks!

My daughter’s room needs a makeover. She has her little girl theme but just turned 12. She loves the color purple. Looking at the Midnight Velvet site I saw several comforters in purple that I’m sure she would love. The 21 piece Serafina comes in purple. This would change her room from little girl to teenager.
I love the Diamante Satin Bedding because I love the gold satin. It is very pretty.
I really like the Isabella Comforter Set. It’s a nice neutral color and brings nature into the room! 🙂
New Microflannel Comforter looks new
I love the Gold Coast Comforter… It’s got lovely gold colors mixed with animal prints.. It makes me think of a old persian quilt.. I think it would look wonderful in my bedroom with the hardwood flooring and blue walls… Of coarse the Enchantment set is also great and would go well with the existing blue walls that I have.. There are so many to pick from, but I think those 2 would be my best ones… Thank you for letting enter this contest and look at these wonderful comforters that “I” will never have the money for… But I can dream tho…
The Melinda and the Del Ray are my faves!

I like the 3-Piece Lincoln Park Bedding Set because it matches all the other décor in the room.
I like the Champ Des Fleurs Bedding.
