If you pay much attention to the Aldi weekly print ads, you’ll notice they often have themes. One week might feature pet supplies or children’s toys. Another week might highlight bartending supplies and kitchen products. Yet another week might be all about redoing your bedroom or bathroom with cute linens, rugs, towels, and other accessories.

Recently, the ad featured a variety of home goods and kitchen items with a coastal theme that invokes images of the beach or an oceanfront home or cottage. The ad encourages customers to “bring home the coast.” The weekly limited-edition specials include area rugs, curtains, a bamboo pendant light, ceramic candles, decorative lanterns, terracotta bowls, faux plants, and more. For the kitchen, products include saute pans and fry pans, spoon rests, trivets, and utensils all in clean and bright coastal or beachy colors such as light blue and cream.

Included among the coastal themed products are some ceramic and sea glass canisters. These are ideal for storing food such as tea, coffee, baking supplies, cookies or other snacks, and more. They could also be used in a bathroom for storing small toiletries and cosmetics. I own a different set of Aldi canisters that are great for holding my collection of tea bags.

The coastal ceramic and sea glass canisters are all sold under the Crofton brand. Crofton is not a company. Instead, it’s the private label Aldi uses for assorted kitchen products such as covered stoneware baking dishes, ceramic ramen noodle bowls, divided serving trays, and more.

What We Know:

Medium and Small Crofton Coastal Ceramic Canisters in Blue.

Large Crofton Coastal Ceramic Canister in Blue.

The Crofton Coastal Ceramic Canister (Product Code: 706022) cost $13.99 in February of 2023. It appears that price will get you either one large canister or a set of one medium canister and one small canister. That price seems comparable or better than what you’ll pay for ceramic canisters on Amazon.

Here’s more information about the Crofton Coastal Ceramic Canister, according to Aldi:

• Available in Blue or Cream
• Large Canister: 65 oz.
• Medium Canister: 36 oz.
• Small Canister: 15 oz.
• Airtight silicone seal keeps food fresh for longer
• Dishwasher safe

Small and Medium Crofton Sea Glass Canisters.

Large Crofton Sea Glass Canister.

The Crofton Sea Glass Canister (Product Code: 706202) cost $17.99 in February of 2023 and customers can choose one large canister or a set of one medium and one small canister for that price. That’s a competitive price compared to other glass canisters on Amazon.

Here’s more information about the Crofton Sea Glass Canisters, according to Aldi:

• Purchase either a Large or a 2-Pack Medium and Small
• Canisters made of blue tinted textured glass
• Large Canister capacity: 128 oz.
• Medium Canister capacity: 64 oz.
• Small Canister capacity: 32 oz.

Both the Crofton Coastal Ceramic Canisters and the Crofton Sea Glass Canisters are Aldi Finds, so they’re only in stores for a short time. Each store gets one shipment, and after that sells out, they’re gone unless Aldi decides to bring them back later. Aldi does not offer online ordering for products that are not in stock at your local store.

What We Don’t Know:

We haven’t purchased either of these canister sets, so we don’t know how well they work or how durable they are. We write open threads so readers can talk about Aldi products.
