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!

I like the Sapphire Bedding. I like the green and blue colors, they remind me of the beach. I find the color combination very calming and relaxing which would be perfect for bed time.
Love the blue pintuck!
I am loving the Satin Ruffled Comforter and shams. Gorgeous and they would go perfectly in my bedroom!
I like the Color Pop Comforter Set in ANY color, those colors are hot! And I also like the Sapphire Bedding collection!
I love the Lincoln Park set – so green and fresh!
I like the colors of the Ombre Leaf Comforter Set
I really LOVE the Pintuck oversized comforter set in either ivory or dark teal. Because our bed has a pretty good sized pillowtop, most comforters are short and look odd. I think this one might actually be large enough!
my bedroom has a lot of blues and greens so i think the hudson park comfortor would look great in my room
I love the Allison Comforter because of its nice pattern and color. WOuld look good in our bedroom.
Though my wife would not agree, I like the Sheba comforter
I like the Serafina woven damask comforter in blue. It gives a deep rich color to the room with the added attraction of a beautiful pattern, but it isn’t so overwhelming. Perfect!
Thanks for the review. I looked at the bedding and my favorite was Bejeweled Romance Bedding and Window Treatment
I LOVE the Marianne 10-Piece Embroidered and Appliqued Bed Set. As long as I have been with my husband, our bedroom comforter sets have ALWAYS been gender neutral.. basically solid colors like Maroon or Tan… I told him this year I’ve had enough! I’m making the bedroom feminine! We have 3 little boys, so that leaves me the only female in a family of 5. There is NOTHING feminine in this house. I’m girling up the place this year.
I like the Bejeweled Romance Bedding and Window Treatments because I do not have anything like it. It looks fancy and different than the usual bedding. It would look so good in my bedroom.
I really like the Bella Rose and it would go with my bedroom
Since I love intense blue shades and Damask, the Serafina WovenDamask bed set would be perfect for me.
There are so many pretty comforters. My three favorites so far are Cottage Rose, Melissa, and Serenity.
That is a wonderful room makeover, what a great space and I love your new color scheme.
Serafina Woven Damask Bed Set! Love the paisley pattern on the set and it is available in my favorite color-purple! Also, looks super comfy!
I like the Sapphire bedding. It would go perfect in my spare bedroom.
