Luxury bedding line Bella Notte has an outlet in Northern California that is open
most weeks throughout the year on Friday and Saturday between 10 and 2 pm.
As the bedding is a very high end, luxury product, any minor flaw is sent into
their seconds outlet, where it is deeply discounted (I’d say 65-75%). Additional
10% off is offered for cash purchases. Twice a year they hold an outlet sale,
generally the week before Thanksgiving, and the week before Mother’s day.
Bella Notte website is here…where you can find a list of retailers throughout
the country, several with online sales.
I love beds and bedding…
And I adore this brand.
Machine washable, though the more gentle you are with it
the longer it will look like new. Washable velvet and satin.
Quilted velvet. Embroidered linen. Faint patterns
of roses. Tone on tone mixes, or accent pops.
The website is beautiful…full of gorgeous photos…
I’m just scratching the surface. Visit here
A top of the line approach is to pick out your mix of styles, and then have them all
custom dyed. So, for instance, you’d have a quilted velvet coverlet, a floral “Colette” duvet,
“Whisper Linen” shams, and silk/cotton floral “Deluxe Marie” sheeting…all dyed “Silvermist“
or “Ocean” or Fawn“. The different fabrics would absorb the natural dyes differently,
and you’d get a tone on tone but cohesive look. Shopping at the outlet means you have to
be more flexible rather than expecting an exact match. But the effect is no less gorgeous.
The Bella Notte Linens website lists stores near you, or you can find several
online stores like Cottage Chic or YvonneEstelles or even Ebay.
If you are not a perfectionist, but you enjoy “the find” and can think on your
feet (and don’t mind a crowd on the sale days) you can get incredible deals.
The policy is no returns, so bring fabric swatches and paint chips if you’re
try to match something.
They generally have about 10 racks of lounge wear…
don’t expect much in the way of dressing rooms and
dress accordingly.

I have a Fawn silk velvet quilted throw like the one above…
It’s so incredibly soft that I can feel it when I just look at this photo!
Below are posts I’ve done with other shots of Bella Notte bedding in them…
My bed: white Whisper Linen and Deluxe Marie in graphite. Certain colors and white
are very hard to come by so I used a color remover on a aqua duvet. DIY aficionados can find
color remover at Dharma Trading Co here.

Hi Trish! Oh I so wish I could come with you to the outlet! Their bedding and linens are beyond luxurious! Have fun and good luck when you go! Bring lots of the green stuff!
🙂 Laura
Thank you so much for sharing this all as well as the website!
I so love the brown Velvet quilt!

Trish, I recently bought a BN velvet and satin throw for my guest room. It is so soft and yummy. I would drive over for the warehouse sale if I knew what I was doing in my master bedroom…but I’m having a “vision/idea block” as far as what I want to do in there, so I will have to wait. But thank you for the info.
Hi Jenny. I know how you feel. But it will all come together when the time is right. Good luck.
I love the satin bedskirts in the gray colors. How’s about I just send you some CASH and you go get one for me????
Their velvets are nice too. The other great thing about the outlet is you don’t have to WAIT to get the bedding…..Isn’t immediate gratification and a break in the price wonderful ?
I am a big fan of BN linens. I recently scored a great 50% off sale on a toile duvet, euros and 4 extra throw pillows. One of my best finds ever. Sadly, though, the sale was at a wonderful shop specializing in French finds that has now closed its doors. I will miss them as much as I love my new bedding.
I purchased bella notte linens for my bed 10 years ago and they look brand new. I wash them all the time. It was a great investment.
Hi Stephanie. The velvets, in particular, seem to get better, softer with each wash.
Trish, sigh. I’m not often jealous, but I am. I wish I lived near Novato! I’ve really never seen a product of theirs that I did not like, let alone love. Hope you go…and buy a few glorious finds in our name…lucky you!
Yes, I have to force myself to stay away sometimes!
Something is definitely wrong here…I don’t own a single piece of BN ~ but now that I have the inside scoop on the outlet and the sales, I’d love to dress every bed I own is these luxurious bed clothes and also grab a few lounge items for myself. Just dreamy…and by the way ~ this is a sign of true friendship ~ you letting all of us in on this. Hope you find something perfectly wonderful!
~Jermaine~
And I wouldn’t mind shopping at some of those great thrift stores you haunt! We need to organize I blogger’s road trip next fall.
Hi Trish,
On which pieces exactly did you use the color remover? Did you re-dye or leave as is?
I would like to try this.
Thank you,
Lisa
Hi Lisa. Duvet cover was BN’s aqua. Pillows were fawn. All pieces were linen. Had best luck with blue toned pieces, browns ended up with more of an ecru finish, though some came out fairly light. Don’t advise using bleach because it breaks down the fibers. Practice on a pillow and see whether it’s worth it to you. Dharma’s product works best in boiling water. I was not as successful at redying…had a hard time getting exactly the color I wanted. There are people who will charge you by the pound to dye slipcovers, bedding, etc (check on line).
Hi, thanks for the info. alas, i’m in Seattle. i recently learned that the Skye color has been discontinued. previously with discontinued colors, i was somehow able to go directly through someone at BN to arrange to get a pillow in that color – even though they are apparently generally religious about only dealing with wholesalers. in fact, i just called BN and the person in “customer service” basically hung up on me as i tried to find out if there might, as before, still be some Skye fabric left. i’ve found local shops won’t pursue this possibility, but when i did directly before, it worked. but now there’s some gate keeper handling the BN phones who insisted i go through a local shop and then hung up. i’d also wanted to ask about the BN outlet – if there might be anything in Skye there. I’ve wanted to replace a pillow that was ruined by my niece and upon learning the color’s been discontinued . . . well, not sure what to do. Any suggestions? also, is there any way to find out in advance when their outlet sales are going to be. perhaps i could coordinate with a visit to the bay area. well, thanks for any ideas you might have. that last photo is beautiful, by the way. i love the graphite color! Cheers.
Katherine –
It’s almost a year since you posted this, however….if you’ve not found the skye linens you’re looking for, I’ve just been on ebay and see that there are couple of BN items in this colour for sale. The two sellers are: cottagechic; and shabbychateaugirl. Good luck!
Debra
Debra,
Thanks so much for this tip!! There was actually a pair of white Melissa shams that would have been terrific for dyeing (and relatively affordable) on Ebay. Alas, they were shipped today – to someone else! I will keep watching Ebay for Melissa fabric & anything in Skye though. Nothing that i saw there today looks like it will work – but brilliant idea! I’ll keep a search going there. Wish i could get to the Outlet Sale. No idea if they’d have anything. Well, we’ll see. And thanks again so much for thinking of me & my quest! All the best,
Cheers, Katherine
HI, I love this bedding- can I buy over the phone at a discount? i know exactly what I want!! Thanks
Where is the outlet store?
Hi Gennie. Address under top photo: 61 Galli Drive Novato 94949…Northern California. It’s about 40 minutes north of San Francisco. I’ve met people who visited from Canada. If you love the stuff it’s worth planning a visit…only open Friday, Saturday 10-2:00.
i want prices thank you
If you click on links above for Cottage Chic or YvonneEstelles you’ll see retail prices. Outlet prices are about 65-75% off. You can find Bella Notte on Ebay sometimes. The Bella Notte Linens website also steers you to shops that carry their product. Good luck.
It has been a dream to go to the Bella Notte outlet for years.. just never made it, but you have inspired me. i live in Sacramento so it’s not that far. I am just totally in love with the look. Plus would appreciate any thrift store tips …have had some fun at Petaluma Goodwill in the past.
Hi, just saw your post regarding the BN outlet sale, and curious.. is the outlet open every Fri, and Sat, or do they have a designated sale date? If they have a sale, could you please let me know when it is? I live in So. Cal and would love to go to the next sale. Great linens… Thanks for the post! Kim
Love Bella Notte linens. Coming to CA n Friday 2/26. Were are you located, please? ADDRESS? HOURS?
I am wondering what the fabric pattern is of the duvet which is in third place on this site. There are ble pllows on top.
I have 2 bedrooms full of Bella Notte lines..1 is my husbands and my room, the other is 1 of our guest rooms..oh my gosh..the greatest bedding…and the sheets…so incredibly wonderful!! Worth every penny (and dollar).
I loved your winter sale and would like to know the dates for the summer sale.
Thanks!
Karen Carsey
I’m in Seattle so warehouse sale is just a dream at this point. However, has anyone ever tried to Dye the Colette Fabric?? i have a pale pink colette duvet that i would like to dye purple (like BN Amethyst). Has anyone tried this? I was thinking in a washing machine would give the most even color – but am concerned about the cover shrinking? Also I suppose i need to use special dye made for . . . viscose/acetate? Any ideas? Thanks so much for any suggestions!
Delicious…..
Where is the outlet?
Trish it was such a pleasure to meet you. If not for you I would have never found out about the outlet. It was so absolutely dreamy I found some beautiful pieces and saved a ton of money which is always a plus. Your bed is amazing when I got home to post this I paid more attention and realized that I was going for a similar feel with the Whisper linen duvet in pebble and accents of graphite. Again such a pleasure meeting you and thank you so much for the inspirations! Take Care

Hi Trish,
I am on a mission and that s to outfit my king size bed in Bella Notte linens. I am thinking shades of blue, I like the colors ocean and seaglass. I live in Jacksonville, Fl. I have 2 questions: 1) is do you know if there is an outlet on this coast? I had heard there may be one in NC. But, i can not find a listing via Google. And, 2)how do I find the shade names of the past year or closeouts? This way I can search sales and ebay.
Thanks,
Lisa
I would like to know when the outlet store in Novato is open to the public & location. Thank you!!
Where are you located? I would like to shop for bedding linens
Hello there,
Can you tell me where the outlet store is located and when you are open? Can anything be bought online?
Thank you, Zu Smith
