Have you ever heard of a ‘boo basket?’

It actually doesn’t have anything to do with ‘booing’ someone, that Halloween prank where you ring someone’s doorbell and leave something funny on their doorstep.

Building a ‘boo basket’ is a cute basket filled with fall and Halloween-themed gifts and treats to give to your loved one. They’ve been taking over TikTok, as lots of husbands have been filming themselves assembling and delivering them to their wives.

However, boo baskets are intended for anyone! You can give one to your spouse, best friend, mom or dad, etc.

So, how do you make a boo basket?

To get all your boo basket items, you’ll want to hit up a store like Target or Walmart, where you can get all sorts of things in one place. You’ll also want to ensure you’re in a store with fun fall-themed stuff like candles, blankets, snacks, etc.

First, grab a nice basket that can hold at least five to six items.

Here are a few basic categories each of your gifts can come from – you’ll want to get the recipient a few fall-themed items, something cozy, something that has to do with self-care, something they’ve been wanting or are passionate about, and some of their favorite snacks.

So, for instance, your fall-themed item could be anything from a pumpkin spice-scented candle to a ghost-shaped mug. You can also look for a cute piece of fall decor that would make them happy.

Next, get them something that will make them feel cozy, like a pair of fuzzy socks, a nice new throw blanket, a new pair of slippers, or even a new sweater. You get bonus points if you find one of those things in a pretty fall color or a cute Halloween print.

A thoughtful boo basket includes a little something that encourages your loved one to do extra self-care, like a new body scrub, face mask, skincare product, etc. Then, you can take your boo basket a level up and get them something they’ve been wanting or something associated with their hobbies.

For instance, a book this person wants to read is a great gift to include in your boo basket, especially because fall is the perfect reading season! If this person is an artist and loves to paint, throw in some new paintbrushes. If they love knitting or crocheting, get them some new yarn!

Finally, get your ‘boo’ some of their favorite snacks. Grab their favorite savory and sweet snacks, and maybe even throw in a bottle of a beverage they love, whether it be wine or a sweet soda!

And there you have it, a guide for building the perfect boo basket. Gifting your loved one a boo basket will warm their heart this fall season. Have fun!
