Boo Baskets Are Here to Stay, & Our Easy Ideas Are Hard to Resist

Courtesy of Brands

Whether you’ve heard of them or not yet, boo baskets are the newest Halloween-y project that’s gone viral. Apparently, friends, you are entitled to a basket chock full of fall and Halloween goodies. A boo basket is basically a basket (surprise!) with all sorts of little gifts and treats to celebrate the season. Wives and girlfriends appear to make up the bulk of recipients, though, of course, you can make a boo basket for anyone in your life. In fact, some people use the ‘pass it along’ method of ‘booing’ someone. They leave a basket for a friend or neighbor, and that’s their cue to make one for someone else. But you can give them however you want!

And, sure, it may feel like they’re just another thing to worry about during an already busy season, but trust us. These are seriously adorable, and, as TikTok creator Hunter from the account @maya.and.hunter points out, if your wife sends you a video of something, go ahead and do that something.

So, we highly recommend you send this list to your boyfriend, husband, or partner with a winky emoji, just as a little hint. If you’re looking for inspiration yourself, you’re definitely in the right place, too. Either way, we’ve got all sorts of great ideas for filling your fall/Halloween gift basket for your favorite people. Choose your basket and get to creating with our picks below!
