Aldi Is Selling These “Spooky” Mini Gems, and I Want All 6 Designs

Summer technically isn’t over just yet, but Aldi’s unofficial fall harbingers — the cult-favorite Kirkton House mini gnomes — have been flying off shelves since their release a few weeks ago. If you didn’t get your hands on the ultra-collectible plushies, which included pint-sized gnomes dressed in pumpkin-embroidered caps and striped stockings, then you’re in luck: Aldi just dropped all-new mini gnomes as part of its Halloween collection.

Just like the harvest-inspired collection that launched in late August, Kirkton House’s Halloween gnomes also measure 16 inches and come with six different designs. Priced at $3.99 a pop, there’s a scary-cute design for everyone, including a Wicked-coded witch with green skin, green hair, a tiny broomstick, and black-and-white striped stocks that I absolutely need for my fireplace mantel. Another favorite is a surprisingly chic gnome with blonde braids, an orange hat with 3D black bats, and dark blue, white, and orange-striped tights underneath her little black dress.

There are also more traditional gnome designs, like a little plushie with a snow-white beard who’s decked out in bright orange and black-striped stockings and a pointy hat that’s garnished with a little skull and crossbones design. Plus a pumpkin-print version, who is carrying a wee pumpkin trick-or-treating basket. There’s also a gnome wearing a buffalo check-style outfit, as well as a gray-bearded gnome with black-and-white striped tights.

These Aldi mini gnomes are a unique but inexpensive Halloween decor option. They don’t look cheesy, and they add some festive vibes to your space. You can prop them against your TV, on the dresser in your bedroom, or on your mantel. Or you can even give them away as gifts!

Unsurprisingly, Aldi’s newest batch of Kirkton House gnomes might be one of its most popular collections this year. I wasn’t able to find any that were available in stores near me. However, Wayfair is selling a set of four Halloween gnomes on sale for $23.99 that is pretty similar (there’s even a witch plush clad in a purple-striped outfit with a tiny broom!). While they’re a little smaller than Aldi’s versions at just 11.02 inches in height, they make up for their diminutive stature with the cutest knit clothing and the fun Halloween accessories they come with.
