Make a Halloween boo basket with personalised photo gifts

How is it almost Halloween already? It’s time to step up your gifting game this spooky season with a personalised touch.


We’ve all heard of the boo basket trend — a spooky, fun-filled bundle of autumnal goodies, perfect for anyone who deserves a little treat (or maybe a trick or two). This year, it’s time to treat yourself, your besties, or your family to a boo basket brimming with something a bit more personal.


Take a look at our Personalised Photo Gifts and see what takes your fancy. Will you go for something small yet significant like our vintage Retro Prints, or a bigger showstopper like our Bamboo and Acrylic Photo Block? It’s your pick.

What is a boo basket?
Think of a boo basket like the Halloween version of a Christmas stocking. You can customise a for anyone — your mum, your grandma, your bestie, your colleague — the list goes on! We love how personalised boo baskets are, and it’s a simple yet effective way to show how much you care.
5 personalised boo basket gift ideas
Ready to craft your boo basket? Here are some themed boo basket ideas to get you started. Keep your eye out for a few of our favourite personalised gifts from our collection.
1. “The cosy night in” boo basket

Does your giftee love nothing more than snuggling up with a hot drink and a good movie on a chilly autumn evening? We don’t blame them. It’s a vibe.


Start with the 12oz Enamel Photo Mug. It’s sturdy, retro, and perfect for holding a hot cup of your favourite drink. Why not take it up a notch and customise it with a photo your loved one will smile at? A picture from last year’s pumpkin carving or trick-or-treat party or a snap from your latest hot girl autumn walk. Whichever snap you choose, they’re sure to feel all warm and cosy inside with every sip.


Finish your boo basket with: A sachet of hot chocolate, a High-Quality Photo Print of a special memory, a pair of fluffy socks, an autumnal-scented candle, and some popcorn for a Halloween movie marathon sesh. For a more bougie take, you could add a voucher for their favourite takeaway restaurant.


How to present it: Line your chosen basket with a plaid blanket. Fill the mug with the hot chocolate sachet, then tuck in the socks, popcorn and candle. Find a nice card and write a note to your chosen giftee with the voucher tucked inside.

2. “The autumnal feast” boo basket

It’s all about autumnal meals and seasonal décor. It only makes sense to welcome in the season with a personalised, practical photo gift for your loved one’s cosy candlelight dinners.


Introducing our Linen Style Placemat. Durable and stylish, it’s a mix-match of practical and personal, making every meal a little more special. Customise it with a photo that brings back a beautiful memory, whether that’s a family meal, an autumn gathering, or a scenic shot that will remind your loved one of a happy memory.


Finish your boo basket with: An autumnal table runner, a jar of homemade chutney or jam, crackers, olives, cheese, chocolate nibbles, and some Halloween-themed napkins.


How to present it: Roll up the placemat and tie it with a ribbon, then nestle it amongst the other goodies in the basket.

3. “The glitter & glow” boo basket

Now, this boo basket is all about glamour and glimmer with a fun Halloween twist.


Add some sparkle to Halloween with the Silver Glitter Shaker Photo Block. It’s super satisfying — your giftee can shake the block and watch the glitter swirl around their favourite photo, lovingly chosen by you. Maybe choose a snap showcasing last year’s Halloween costumes or the party they hosted. Or try and catch a snap of their four-legged friend in a Halloween-themed accessory.


As well as being wonderfully personalised, it’s also a fun piece of décor that will add a splash of personality to their space.


Finish your boo basket with: Battery-powered Halloween-themed fairy lights, Shacolla Photo Prints to go with the decor theme, a glittery skull accessory or pumpkin ornament, shimmering candles, and a glittery cocktail or mocktail mix.


How to present it: Wrap the glitter shaker photo block in tissue paper and place it in a black wicker basket filled with faux spiders and pulled cotton for a cobweb effect. Add your other Halloween gifts, then weave in the glowing fairy lights to create some spooky ambience.

4. “The nature lover” boo basket

If your bestie isn’t a fan of Halloween horror, there’s still a way for you to celebrate the beauty of the season. How? With photo gifts that are as natural as they are personal. Autumn is the best time to whip out the boho, cottage-core vibe, after all.


Our Wooden Photo Block is great for the giftee who appreciates the simplicity and beauty of natural materials. Personalise it with a photo that holds a special memory — perhaps an autumn walk in the woods, a family outing, or a landscape setting that means a lot to them. The stunning bamboo wood finish adds a rustic touch.


Finish your boo basket with: A selection of dried flowers, a natural bath bomb, an autumn-scented hand cream, and some artisanal sweet treats.


How to present it: Place the photo block at the centre of the basket and surround it with the dried flowers. Place your other items carefully on top or within the flowers. We recommend using a wicker basket to keep in with the nature-inspired presentation.

5. “The retro vibe” boo basket

It’s time for a bit of nostalgia with this boo basket idea — filled with retro-inspired items.


There’s no better add-in than our Retro Prints — an edgy way to share your memories in a tangible, vintage style. Choose your favourite Halloween photos or autumn moments, print them in retro format, and add them to the basket.


They can be a sentimental keepsake for your loved one, or they can choose to display the snaps around their home. Plus, they add an adorable touch of personal nostalgia to the boo basket.


Alternatively, go for instax™ instant prints. SQUARE, mini, or WIDE, there are plenty of fun film designs to choose from. And if you’re feeling especially generous, you could even add in a pocket-sized instax Pal™ camera— it’s the ultimate way to make small moments feel big.


Finish your boo basket with: A fun frame for instax™ prints, some retro Halloween sweets, a vintage-inspired horror film poster, fake blood, and some cheesy vampire teeth.


How to present it: Stack the retro prints in a cute envelope or tie them with twine. You can hide a fake spider within the envelope for a jump scare! Add them to the basket alongside the retro-themed items, and include some black-and-white tissue paper for an added old-school vibe.
