The Boo Basket trend has taken over TikTok and Pinterest this autumn, and we just couldn't resist sharing our own take.

Boo Baskets are a thoughtful way to show someone how well you know them by celebrating the arrival of their favourite season.

Traditionally filled with Halloween treats and decorations, bright orange Boo Baskets aren't for everyone. We're going to show you how to put together an autumn gift hamper that is cosy and cute, without being tacky or kitsch...

Step 1: Choose a Beautiful Basket

Start by selecting a beautiful wicker basket to use as your base- this is what gives your Boo Basket that cosy, rustic feel.

We used this pumpkin-shaped basket from B&M, which is the perfect size for holding a few small gift.

Line the basket with shredded paper to add texture and keep everything snug or lay down a soft scarf or blanket for an extra touch of luxury (and a bonus gift!).

The natural tones of wicker pair perfectly with autumnal colours and make your Boo Basket feel rather luxury- ideal for someone who loves the autumn aesthetic but not an over-the-top Halloween theme.

Step 2: Add an Autumn Candle

There's no better autumn gift than a hand-poured soy candle in a scent that reflects the beauty of the season- rich, warm, and comforting.


Our favourite Home County Co. autumn scents include:


The Worcestershire: an elegant blend of Black Pear & Freesia, evoking crisp autumn air and soft florals.


The Somerset: a comforting combination of Apple & Fresh Fig, evoking blissful afternoons exploring Somerset cider apples orchards- the scent of fresh fruit and fallen leaves filling the warm air.


Each County Collection Candle is hand-poured in Britain and presented in a clear glass vessel with a gold-foiled label and a textured gift box, making it the perfect centrepiece for your luxurious Boo Basket.

3. Pair with an Autumn Soap Bar

Pair your autumn candle with a matching soap bar to complete your home fragrance gift set.

Home County Co. soap bars are lovingly made in Buckinghamshire, and are both vegan-friendly and cruelty-free. Made without the use of parabens or SLS, our soaps make for mindful, high quality gifts.

Step 4: Add a Cosy Autumn Mug

Last but not least is an autumnal mug. If you're sticking with a neutral colour scheme, this B&M pumpkin mug is the perfect addition.

The key to enjoying autumn lies in your ability to romanticise the simplest of moments. By gifting your loved one a new autumn mug, you give them something to look forward to even on the darkest mornings of the year.
