I’m Obsessed with This $10 Aldi Vintage-Inspired Holiday Gem (It Transforms Winter Hosting!)

If you’re like me and love a vintage-inspired Christmas home decor moment, look no further — because one of my favorite stores, Aldi, is selling the most adorable vintage-inspired holiday napkins, table centers, and place mat sets for under $10. They look like they were swiped from your grandma’s fine china cabinet, yet are casual enough to be used every day, which makes them the perfect way to inject holiday cheer into every moment.

For only $9.99, you can create your own Martha Stewart-esque table setting just in time for all your Friendsgivings and holiday hosting duties. Aldi’s Huntington Home holiday table sets look so much more expensive than they actually are, thanks to the intricate embroidery and four classic vintage designs inspired by Christmas trees, nutcrackers, gingerbread houses, and ornaments.

The table center, which measures 15 inches in width and 35 inches in length, can be layered or displayed alone in the center of your dining table. It’s perfect for showing off your holiday dishes, the TikTok-viral pool noodle centerpiece hack, or even for pairing alongside some classic candles and candlesticks. 

The gingerbread design, which is in a minimalist caramel brown and cream, looks like a tiny village of homes, while the nutcracker version has four painted tin soldiers encircled by a garland of green. The ornament table center is one of the more intricate designs, featuring embroidered appliqués that look just like red and white baubles laced together. Lastly, there’s a design with a forest of Douglas fir trees in alternating dark green and olive green hues that’s perfect for hosts with a more understated preference for decor.

These four holiday designs repeat throughout Huntington Home’s matching holiday napkins and place mats, which come in sets of four and six. The place mats measure 13 inches by 18 inches, while the square napkins measure 17 inches by 17 inches. It’s the perfect little product for adding some extra holiday “oomph” to your table — especially as you try to maximize holiday joy this season.

Not only is this the perfect gift for the hostess with the mostest in your life, but it’s also tempting to grab a complete $30 set of napkins, centerpiece, and place mats for yourself. All you need are some candles, your best friends, and the perfect festive feast to bring your dream holiday tablescape to life.

Unfortunately, unless you live near an Aldi and can go into the store to snag your preferred set, you’re out of luck. Luckily T.J. Maxx and Marshalls sell adorable, vintage-inspired holiday tablescape pieces that you can buy online (although they don’t come in as complete of a set, and all together would be more expensive than the Aldi offerings).

For $15 at T.J. Maxx, you can buy an adorable Isaac Mizrahi New York nutcracker-themed table runner that will perfectly set up your dining room table all holiday season long. 

After that, you can add an Mdesign branded set of four velvet embroidered gingerbread place mats for $24.99 also at T.J. Maxx, and then finish out your mix-and-match holiday set with a six-pack of Cupcakes & Cashmere branded Gingerbread napkins for $9.99 at Marshalls. 

Of course, this is a great deal more expensive than what is offered at Aldi, but if you want a more eclectic, choose-your-own adventure sense of holiday joy — and if you’d rather shop online or don’t live near an Aldi — this is your best bet!
