It's not too late to send your bestie a gift in the spirit of Halloween. It may seem like your window has passed for putting together a boo basket with their favorite show, coffee, or hobby in mind. But, there are plenty of last-minute boo basket ideas that exist and will make your bestie boo-lieve in the magic of the holiday. To make one of these ideas a reality, you just need to spend a little time shopping and crafting.
Gather up your credit card and any packs of glitter you have around the house, as well as a box or basket which you can organize your new items in. As you're placing cute items like a mug, planter, or snack from Trader Joe's in the box, tie an orange ribbon around items that have a handle or you want to make look extra festive. Then, make a plan to deliver such a fang-tastic gift to your bestie, whether you ship it across the country to them or leave it at their front door. You can try to deliver your gift right in time for Halloween night, or the day after.
To be honest, it's the thought that counts. Either way, your bestie will be so surprised and excited to receive a basket of handpicked goodies. Start shopping these last-minute boo basket ideas that boo-lieve in the magic of Halloween.
