ALDI Just Brought Back the Christmas Decor Trend Everyone Is Obsessed With – And at Only $8.99, You Can Easily Recreate the Mini Tree Bow Look Now
The 'very demure, very cutesy' aesthetic may have emerged in 2024, but it continues to captivate and endure well into 2025
There’s something so joyful about decorating for Christmas – the lights, the textures, the little rituals that make a home feel festive and full of warmth.
Every year, I find myself drawn back to certain Christmas decorating ideas that never lose their charm, and this season, it’s the bow that’s stealing my heart all over again. The mini bow trend was everywhere last Christmas, and I’m convinced it’s here to stay. It has that rare combination of longevity and timelessness – something that feels both nostalgic and effortlessly elegant, no matter how styles shift.
This year, I fell for ALDI’s Merry Moments Velvet Clip-On Bow Ornaments in Ruby Red, which capture everything that makes the trend so special. The plush velvet texture, rich ruby tone, and simple clip-on design make them as easy as they are beautiful. They instantly transform a Christmas tree, garland, or wreath with just the right touch of festive sophistication – and at $8.99 for six, they’re proof that timeless style doesn’t have to come with a luxury price tag.
What I love most about bows is their versatility. They work beautifully in both modern and traditional spaces, whether you’re decorating a minimalist white tree or layering them into a more maximalist, glittering display. Their soft texture and elegant form bring warmth and structure at once, making them a perfect finishing touch that ties a space together.
This year, I’ll be clipping them throughout my tree, but I also love adding them to Christmas wreaths, gift wrap, or even napkin rings for a coordinated, thoughtful look. They’re one of those details that always make a space feel considered, cozy, and full of personality. In a season that celebrates tradition and togetherness, bows embody everything I love about festive decorating.
These decorative little bows may be trending now, but to me, they’ve always been – and will always be – a timeless classic that I will reuse every Christmas.
