If you're looking to
create a "modish" look in your bedroom, consider velvet bed skirts as a unique and
sophisticated bedding accessory. Silk and velvet bedding is truly a
great way to add a luxurious look and feel to your bed.
Far and away the two most popular colors are red and black, although
there are some requests for pink velvet pillows... believe it or not! Purple is another popular favorite for lovers of silk and
velvet.
When searching for unique bedskirts made from velvet, you will usually
run across them as part of a complete silk and velvet bedding set,
including velvet comforters, sheet sets and duvet covers.
Also keep in mind, that 'something-you-usually-don't-think-about'
accessory which would really make your bed stand out is velvet pillowshams! These are a wonderful way to easily
add an affordable touch of luxury to your new, or existing, bedding.
Maintaining any kind of silk or velvet bedding can be tricky, so be sure
to read the washing instructions carefully! In general, machine
washing in cold water should be safe.
So, if you want to literally turn your bedroom into a luxurious retreat,
then velvet bedding (comforters, bed skirts, pillow shams... the whole
nine yards) is the way to go.
