"Some of the most popular holiday decor items sweeping social media are decorations that look like they've been passed down for generations - even if they just arrived in stores. It's why retro '80s and '90s staples like aluminum-style trees are still popular today."
"These Aldi cookie jars are painted to look exactly like the retro ceramic trees from the 1960s and '70s. These trees once came in a variety of different styles and colors, including classic green, white, and pink. Most of the trees were lit with colorful bulbs; some even featured white detailing to make the boughs seem like they were covered in fresh snow."
"Although they don't light up like the classic ceramic trees, Aldi's cookie jars feature bulbs painted onto the surface to achieve the same look as the originals. These appear to be an in-store only exclusive, but you can find a similar cookie jar at Walmart if your local Aldi is already sold out."
Aldi's Merry Moments collection includes ceramic cookie jars modeled after midcentury light-up holiday trees, painted in retro colors such as green, white, and pink. The jars feature painted colorful bulbs and a yellow star serving as the lid handle, recreating the look of vintage ceramic trees that once lit up with bulbs and sometimes sported white detailing to mimic snow. The Aldi versions do not light up but capture the nostalgic aesthetic. These items appear to be store-exclusive and may sell out, while a similar light-up version is available at Walmart for shoppers seeking a functional replica. Retro holiday decor remains popular on social media, driving interest in nostalgic pieces.
