Aldi’s Scandinavian-Inspired Holiday Garland Looks So High End (It’s Just $5!)

It’s clear that people are seeking a return to traditional and nostalgic decor this holiday season — just look at how fast “Ralph Lauren” Christmas took off. But if your vibe leans a bit more rustic than it does preppy, then you’re going to love this new wood bead garland from Aldi. It’s so simple, yet it will make your tree look that much more homey. The best part? It’s only $5.

The garland from Aldi’s Merry Moments brand resembles something that could have been made 100 years ago. It’s a 12-foot-long garland made with three different sizes of unfinished wood beads (although you can also grab one of these garlands in gold, too). It features loops at each end for easy hanging, and when draped on the boughs of your tree, it will give it a rustic, Scandinavian look.

For those who keep tabs on Aldi’s decor aisle, you know that these limited finds sell out fast. If these beaded garlands are already sold out at your nearest location, you can purchase a similar version from Wayfair. 

This one is a bit pricier than the Aldi garland, but it’s nearly identical. It comes with just over 7 feet of unfinished wood beads with loops on either end.

Or, get crafty and DIY your own wooden bead garland with this variety pack from Amazon. You get nearly 1,000 beads of varying sizes, so you can customize your garland to your exact taste. In fact, you get so many beads that you can make one for your tree and another one to give to a friend!

Check your local Aldi to see if these $5 wood bead garlands are still available and give your tree that traditional rustic touch you’ve been craving.
