Budget Friendly Boo Baskets
Budget Friendly Boo Baskets |
Hey hey, friends!
The countdown is officially on, as we are only 9 days away from Halloween! Although this year will be a tad bit different for most, we are all still excited over here and plan to make the best of it.
We are still hosting our annual Halloween party, accompanied by a few guests, with lots of SPOOKY decor, tricks + treats, and more! I also decided to throw some DIY Boo Basket gift sets into the mix for my littles!
I decided to keep their baskets minimal and simple, and actually got everything I needed for both my daughter and son from our local Dollar General for under $15! All of their Halloween products have been marked down, and are now 50% off!
I decided to grab 2 of their plastic Halloween cauldrons to use as their baskets, and got them both for $1.00.
WHAT'S BREWING?
TISSUE PAPER x 1: This will go into the bottom of the basket(s), and you will or should have some left over for additional use if needed.
CANDY: Favorite candy or candy mixture, whichever you prefer. I decided to go with HARIBO SWEET or SCARY MIX, because those are their absolute favorite! (I linked this candy from Wal-Mart because after price checking, it's a tad bit cheaper!)
DRINK-WARE: They had red and black plastic skull cups, and I just could not pass them up!
STRAWS: I love the striped straws. I am a sucker for them, no matter the season. I got them their own set of straws, as they will go through them in no time.
ACCESSORIZE: For my son, I got the white skulls necklace. For my daughter, I decided to go with the purple bats. These necklaces have 3 settings and are super cute!
GLOW STICKS: I chose the green hand for my son, and the 3 colored necklace for my daughter.
CRAFT: I got them each a Halloween painting craft that I am so excited to help them with! I chose the pumpkin and a cat. Once painted, I'll be sure to share to my Insta stories!
ACTIVITY BOOK: I picked up these super cute activity books that contain stickers, puzzles, blank coloring pages, and more!
TOY: I got them both 1 toy each, just something they really love. I got the Lava/Slime Lamp for my daughter, and the Bop Bag for my son. So much nostalgia, no doubt. I remember having multiple Lava Lamps as a kid, and the Bop Bags as well.
DOUBLE DOUBLE TOIL & TROUBLE
These were so fun to put together, and getting everything all in one place made it so much easier. Super cute, simple, and filled with all of their favorites! I cannot wait to gift their Boo Baskets to them on the night before Halloween!
I hope you all have a fun and safe Halloween fun - filled night!
