Reddit mentions: The best bedding comforter sets

Trying to get active in this sub as I just discovered it yesterday :P

I have varying interests: games, Disney, anime/manga, reading, cats, cute things, Pokemon (my current obsession is Overwatch)...you get the idea. My favorite colors are blue and yellow!

Mine is kinda messy ATM but here it is: http://imgur.com/a/pt7Jv

I hope to move out in the next 2-4 years (hopefully!) so maybe one day my gaming stuff can have its own dedicated space and not all around my bedroom.

I get a lot of my posters from rewards points (past Nintendo rewards and GameStop Power Up rewards). Surprisingly all of my Pokemon plushies came from Tractor Supply Company! I got all the amiibos for under $5 a piece from Best Buy, same with my Funkos but at Barnes and Noble. Thinkgeek has a lot of cool geeky stuff online. My Kiki's Delivery Service came from alexisparade on etsy, if you like anime she has a ton of cool prints for sale! The Pokemon print was something I found in storage, I think I got it at a fair/carnival when I was 5 or 6 haha. My trinkets I usually pick up from Homegoods/Go Fish/Hallmark/Target/yard sales/Etsy/building sets/etc. If there is anything specific that you want to know where it came from, let me know and I can try to find it for you!

As far as furniture, I got my desk and bookshelf from Oak Express (lots of unique options), and the shelves with my consoles on it from Walmart (Ikea has similar ones). My bedroom suit is older than I am so I can't say much about it as I don't much like it but am not allowed to get rid of it. As of lately, Walmart has had some super cute bedding for fairly cheap, but I also seem to find nice stuff at TJMaxx and Bed Bath and Beyond (mine is actually from Vera Bradley as I love their patterns, got it at an outlet for not even 3/4 that price on Amazon. If you can't tell, I love a sale/free stuff lol).

Oh, and I built my own PC but that's a whooleee other story. ;)

1. Pinzon diamond-stitch comforter set
   
   Literally the softest, fluffiest most amazing comforter ever.
   
   
2. Hi-Pro® Fashion World Map Pendant Necklace (Silver)
   
   So pretty and unique, and only $2.99 with free shipping!
   
   
3. Clairol Hair Food Moisturizing Hair Mask
   
   This stuff made my hair silky and awesome. I got it as a free full-sized sample in a Target Beauty Box before.
   
   
4. Nature by Canus Lotion, Original Fragrance
   
   Goat's milk lotion is literally the best, it's super creamy and smells amazing too.
   
   
5. No One Belongs Here More Than You: Stories by Miranda July
   
   It's hard not to fall in love with Miranda July's quirky, hilarious and often profound short stories about everyday life.

That layout is probably the most optimal for the space you have. I think putting the bed on the other side of the room would make it feel more choppy because of that indent next to the closet. It would be chunk of space at door/dresser > closet passage > chunk of space at foot of bed. If that makes any sense at all. The shelf thing - So you would have a 2-3 foot gap on that side of your bed to accommodate for that shelf. Is that a walkable, usable space for you? Does it crowd the closet/entry too much if you do that? Can that shelf fit at the end of the bed in the corner by any chance?

So! How to make it a little more grown up - I would suggest starting by updating your bedding. The feminine-industrial-boho-ish vibe you've got started is cool (yes I just made that up), just ramp it up a bit.

I believe you have a comforter? Swap it out for a new one OR get a duvet cover and use your existing comforter as the duvet filler (just make sure it will fill the cover, or just get a duvet insert). If you do a print, stick with a small scale print like the floral you have now, or an abstract muted pattern/texture - a bold medallion or stripes might eat up the "visual space" in there. Then you can do the "fancy people" thing as I call it, and get a coordinating throw for the end of the bed, folded neatly along the foot of the bed.. Look at some staged pictures of bedding you'll see what I mean. Sometimes people get a bed scarf specifically for that but a light weight throw or coverlet works just as well. Bump 2 of your pillows for square euro shams in the back and keep 2 standard pillows in front - and feel free to add in as many or as few decorative pillows as you can handle. If the big euro shams seem like too much then 4 standard pillows like you have is fine just prop the ones in the back up so it looks layered.

Something like this would look nice with blush/pink sheets if you want to stick with the colors you have - plus you already have a pink throw you can use at the foot of the bed. It's a lot of texture but its subtle, then splash more color in your future wall art & plant pots. Maybe your artwork/photos can be framed in natural wood to match your light fixture and/or black to match your bed.

I also see a woven basket hiding - maybe play off that with a round jute rug. Peek that out from under the foot of the bed i.e. if it were divided into 4, have 1/4 of it under the bed and the other 3/4 poking out. However it best fits. You have carpet so it's not like you need a beefy rug just something decorative. Lot of ways to play it!

Oh man, I loved choosing bedding when I was a teenager!! I loooooooved it!! Now I'm sorry because I just have to paste the links directly with no text because I don't know how to do that on mobile... So here's my list:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007YDKR3G/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_zyeYub0CZD7BY

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002BXISEE/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_NAeYub1V7VH12

Those last two are similar in design, but I love them. They are so elegant but not gaudy.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004JNB5C6/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_YBeYub0RCX3FS

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008VOT8WI/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_ICeYub1JB0KTZ

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0082GUUQ8/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_EDeYub14YB6Q9 (this one may be a total hit or miss. Some teens love these little owls. I for one think they're adorable, and I love the sheets. But she may think the opposite...)

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007ST4W6O/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_qFeYub1P1NTJZ (love this color combination)

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005Z092V8/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_-GeYub1JSSTDC (another color combination that I love!!!)

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005PIGMLI/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_SIeYub0SBKK0W

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NR5S62O/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_nKeYub1H3HZJ8

OK, I seriously need a teenage daughter because I just had entirely too much fun looking at bedding sets. I hope she finds what she's looking for somewhere on this thread!! :)

I have a sister who's thirteen and we literally just did this for her as a Christmas present.

Would be easier if I knew what colors and stuff she liked, but this still sounds fun so I will see what I can dig up. >D

Edit:
Some non-amazon sets that I thought were cute: One, Two

Amazon links:
I would have loved a set like this as a teenager. It's mature, but also a little whimsical at the same time thanks to the ruching. Seriously I just think ones like this are really stylish. That's the last textured one I swear.

Blue/green and the print's quite cute too. Also has a fair amount of blue. Can you tell what my favorite color is?

While I'm not sure it's a concern or not, I'd just like to put in a sheepish comment about how something with a lot of white is really hard to maintain since white stains so easily. Something teenage me had a problem with, heck I still have a problem with that. I have black sheets for a reason. :<

That canvas! If I had access to the rest of the needed supplies, that would definitely be something I'd want. Though I don't...

I have so many lists.. But here goes:

Super Sculpey is on my artsy list because I found you can alter vinyl figures with it and boil or lightly bake it! Further customizing, which I find neat.

Bravely Default is on my list because the demo got me hooked. I use to hate JRPG type games and turn-based games, but this one seems fun with a lot of extra's. (Like extra things to do.)

Purple bed set.. SO DARN ELEGANT.. I mean shhh. Basically purple and black go together so wonderfully and my bed is a mess of colors right now. xD Tiger stripes with green bedding and flowery and black pillow cases. Also a big purple pillow and a leopard print.

African Violet perfume oil is on my list because back when I would go to the flea market there was a man and lady who sold essential oils. African violet was such a mesmerizing scent. I had it all over my room, the house.. Basically anywhere it would smell divine at.

Hard choice between House Of Leaves and I Am Legend. Both are books I want to read because I love the reviews. I generally go for non-fiction, horror books. Both seem to be right for the reading. I want to be scared or intrigued! Hooked into a story.

Coloring book... because I am a kid at heart!

Magnetic cubes! I want these because the original circular buckyballs/neocubes are always WAY to high priced. It's an alternative, and I love magnetic things.

Nubian goat light switch cover because.. goats! I love nubian goats and that's, that! (Also love just about any type of goats..)

Daemon tarot cards because I am fascinated with anything to do with demons, or entities. Generally anything tarot card or fortune related also. More so things that are evil, because people tend to shy away.. While I go towards them.

Last but not least...

I'm such a sucker for Norman Reedus... I want it to hang on my wall. I even have a frame waiting for it. (Thank's WalMart.) Got 2 frames for the price of one!

I'll contribute some dark purple stuff!

Holiday lights can spice up a room at any time of the year!

Curtains!

Maybe a clock?

This beautiful comforter set would look amazing. I even want it.

Throw blankets for when it gets chilly.

This crystal ball would look pretty awesome somewhere.

And some storage bins for good measure.

I hope I helped! Good luck remodeling!

It's the PS4. Any gamer worth their weight knows that this is going to be one of the grandest, most desirable gaming systems ever. The graphics are going to be just amazing and we'll be one step closer to games being so realistic that we feel like murderers while playing them.

ETA: fear cuts deeper than swords

1. This comforter set!
   
   
2. I've never had an actual bedset. I have some mismatched blankets and mismatched pillow cases, but I'm out on my own now and just would like a bed that feels put together and less hand me down.
   
   
3. Yes, I would. I am sure that I can get by just fine the next few years before I purchase a house without an actual comforter set. Though, when I buy a house (like 5 years), I am definitely going to get one!
   
   Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds! Thanks for this contest and your generosity, like always!

My husband totally wants to make our house look nice, but I don't mind white walls, and he just is not into interior decoration. Laziness has won out!
As a note, maybe try out patterns. Such as this. Brown-blue, the happy medium between tose who like lights and those who like darks.

I think this one from Ikea would be neat. It comes with a duvet and one pillow case. You can put the duvet around her existing comforter, which might leave some extra $$ for throw pillows and new sheets.

This one on amazon also looks pretty neat, but might be too red/grownup for her.

Lastly I found this one which just looks neat. :)

My Suggestions: this one has dark red and purple in it and this one is black with skulls on it.

I really want to help but I need some answers first!

• What are her favorite colors?
  
• What tv shows/movies does she like?
  
• What other hobbies/interests does she have?
  
• Do you have a price limit?

This is pretty cool

These purple shelves are awesome!

This collage

To add some color

Beautiful bedding and the matching curtains

Some lighting

Spice up the wall

I could keep going, I love doing this stuff!

Id love the comforter set on my most wanted list please. It has $5.95 shipping so that alone is $68.94. That leaves $6.06 for any books, DVD or anything on my $5 and under list :)

Purple and Grey Set!

Green and Grey Set!

Pink and Grey Set!

Any color and grey always looks grown up and classy!

D

Thanks for the contest!

Love the contest!

This one is simple, elegant, and a lot of pink

I like Harry Potter too!

If I win, you can pick for me!

HP 4 lyf lol. Otherwise if you want to have a little bit of an elegant feel go with these.

Pretty comforter set: $62.99

Now You See Me: $11.99

Total: $74.98, both items from the "Most Wanted" wishlist :)

haha
what about something like this or this

or if shes not a purple fan maybe this

I was in the same situation this year and ended up buying this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0034L4ABC/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

6 months later and the fabric is holding up great (no loose threads, or rubbed seams that tend to show up quickly in cheap bed sets). It looks even better in person than the photos. Subtle dragon theme, but that's kinda manly, right?
