What’s a boo basket?

Boo baskets are essentially gift baskets with a Halloween theme. They are all about gifting cozy clothing, adorable spooky gifts, self care items and savory and sweet treats.

To curate the basket for your girlfriend, ask yourself:

• what’s your budget?
• is she into Halloween or would she prefer a fall themed basket? (this is especially important for religious friends who try to stay away from the spooky imagery)
• does she enjoy spa gifts or would she rather her favorite skin care brands?
• what’s her Halloween style? Cutie patootie or spooky and goth?

The answers here can definitely shape the boo baskets you get for your girlfriend.

Boo basket ideas for girlfriend

SPA GIFTS

1. Spa boo basket set

Skip all the curating and get her this already made purple spa boo basket set. It’s fun and adorable with cute ghost graphics on socks, glass cup, and a card. It also comes with a lavender candle, bath bomb, and natural soap.

If purple or cute ghosts aren’t her thing, how about getting this fall-inspired one. It comes with a blankie, socks, eye mask, wine tumbler, cute candle, soap, and bath bomb. It’s the opposite of spooky!

2. Face masks

If she loves face masks, why not get her Halloween themed, fun ones? These come with 3 types – an egg white one that smoothens skin, a pumpkin one that’s hydrating and a bat charcoal one that detoxifies.

3. Acne patches

If your girlfriend or best friend loves pimple patches, how about getting her some Halloween ones! These are hydrocolloid patches with salicylic acid and tea tree oil. They come in ghost, card, pumpkin and other spooky styles.

CLOTHING

4. Halloween tees

Halloween tees are sure to be a hit in your boo basket for girlfriends. There are tons of options to choose from. This cotton blend tshirt with a tarot card graphic of Frankenstein and his bride is pretty hot!

For a more cutie patootie vibe, this Snoopy tee is adorable.

And this one is pretty fun for moms!

5. Sweaters

Here’s another cozy idea for the boo basket – sweaters! Super soft and comfortable, sweaters are great fall and Halloween gifts. I love this oversized one with a ghost covered in cats graphic. It’s the cutest!

6. Slippers

Fuzzy indoor slippers are also wonderful cozy gifts. Most are unisex too! You can pick up cloth washable ones or ones that have a rubber backing for good grip. I really like these soft ones with a carved pumpkin design.

7. Socks

Halloween themed socks are also great for a boo basket for a girlfriend or best friend. These are soft, made of polyester cotton, and come in variations of pink, purple and black. You’ll find cat, ghost, pumpkin, and spider graphics with words below like ‘boo,’ ‘trick or treat,’ and ‘pink pumpkin vibes.’

8. Gloves

Fingerless gloves are a great idea for gym girlies! These have skeleton prints on them that actually glow in the dark! How cool is that? You can always get regular fuzzy gloves for fall or costume ones with lace or feathers.

9. Scrunchies

A girl can never have too many scrunchies! I’m always losing mine. So, scrunchies, hair ties and hair clips with spooky graphics would be great boo basket stuffers. These ones are pretty good.

10. Costume ideas

If she loves costumes and dressing up, add some costume options to her basket. It could be fairy wings, sexy masks, hero costumes or even simple accessories like this Harry potter inspired tie and headband.

ACCESSORIES

11. Hair accessories

You can get wild with hair accessories. From spooky hair clips to headbands, bows and bonnets, there are lots of options to add to the fun boo basket. These hair clips are super spooky and functional. And I can’t get over how cute these hair bows are!

12. Earrings

Bring in some personality to the basket with some spooky earrings. If she’s into a gothic style, she’ll absolutely love these stainless steel bat earrings. But, there are so many options from dangly skeletons, witches’ boots and hat, cute Halloween cats, ghosts and pumpkins. Find what fits her personality and get her those earrings!

13. Shades

Spooky themed shades make a great gag gift for the season and are fun additions to gift baskets. You can find Halloween shades, all red glasses, meme worthy spectacles and more. These bat inspired glasses are perfect for any goth girlie’s outfit!

14. Temporary tattoos

If your girlfriend loves herself unique face decorations and makeup, she’ll certainly appreciate temporary freckle tattoos. You can go for chic and sophisticated with gold tattoos for any occasion (they’ll be great for New Years too). Or get more Halloween specific with these.

15. Necklace

Kick it up a notch with unique necklaces for the boo basket. You can go for expensive pieces here that you know she’ll love or get simple, Halloween themed ones. There are necklaces to fit every vibe from punk rock and goth to sweet and adorably spooky. This layered sun, moon, crystal necklace gives unique spooky vibes.

16. Bracelet

Friendship bracelets or fancy bracelets can be sweet gift ideas especially for best friends. You can go for gold, gold plated or silver jewelry with charms. Or make it simple with these adorable Halloween friendship bracelets. They’re pretty cute.

17. Bags

Totes, make up bags, clutches, and pencil cases are also perfect for your best friend’s boo basket. You can get a plain tote and fabric markers and DIY one! You can order a unique, customized bag or you can buy a beautiful but spooky one. I adore this black cat clutch! It’s so precious!

For a little more spiciness, this makeup bag is great too!

DECOR

18. Candles

Back to the cozy gifts! Candles are a great option. They could be fall themed and smell of cinnamon and flowers or earthy with sandalwood. You can find pumpkin shaped candles or simple ones. This pumpkin spice one is pretty awesome.

19. Mugs

Here’s another spooky basket ideas for girlfriend – mugs. You can bring in so much personality here too! Hilarious sayings on a mug would surely make her smile! You can also go for the cutesy designs or even the self heating electric ones. I prefer keeping it simple with this ceramic mug with ghost and library designs. It’s pretty cute!

20. Pillow covers

Add spookiness to her home decor with funny, witty and Halloween themed pillow covers. If she’s a throw pillow girlie, she’ll definitely appreciate this gift. You can always be extra and get her matching sheets too!

21. Pillows

Besides covers, you can also get her themed pillows too that double as large stuffies. We’ll all pretend they are home decor pieces and not cuddly toys to hug during movie night. You can go spooky with spider pillows or get these adorable pumpkin ones that are machine washable.

Those are my boo basket ideas for your girlfriend or best friend. There is so much space to get creative, be spookily whimsical and enjoy the gift curating process. If you want more gift ideas, check out all my Halloween ones here.
