Halloween Gifts Worth Saving
pumpkin mug and photo basket
We’re starting off strong with this pretty cream and brown basket. I love the pumpkin mug beside the round-beaded photo frame.
The slippers and pumpkin-patterned socks make such a cute pairing.
If you want to make yours more personal, tuck a favorite photo into the frame. Finish with cream ribbon and a little checked bow like the ones here.
little ghost and pumpkin candle
How cute is this little ghost? The white figure sits between an orange pumpkin candle and a dark candle, with dried orange slices tucked at the back.
Try a checked box liner if you like this mix of simple patterns and autumn colors. Keep the loose packing away from the candles before lighting them.
black cat cookie tin
This cookie tin may just be one of my favorites here. I love the black cat with its pink nose, plus that little white ghost tucked above it.
Choose a mix of decorated cookies and plain shapes for your own tin. The pale crescent moon looks so pretty beside the darker cat.
colorful candy cups
If you are looking for something small to put together, this one is for you. These black cups have bright pumpkins, ghosts and skeletons all over them.
Fill Halloween cups with wrapped candy, then finish the clear bags with orange, purple and black curling ribbon.
mini gifts in printed mugs
Don’t want to put together a whole basket? No problem!
These printed mugs hold a little assortment of colorful packages and shiny pumpkin-shaped extras.
I especially love the tiny ghost toppers peeking out at the back. Try keeping your tallest gifts behind the smaller ones so you can see everything.
hallo-wine and striped bows
The wine puns are so cute in this basket. There are wine bottles, an orange tumbler and a white ghost sign, all tucked behind that oversized striped bow.
For an adult who enjoys wine, try this black, white and orange combination. The smiling jack-o’-lantern is a lovely little extra.
hello kitty and pumpkin treats
I am obsessed with this Hello Kitty basket. The orange character blanket and matching mug are adorable, especially beside the smiling pumpkin in a witch hat.
There’s candy, a pumpkin spice latte candle and body-care products tucked around them. Keep the little pumpkin lights if you want that same all-out Halloween look.

pretzel broomstick bags
Is that a bunch of tiny snack broomsticks? The pretzel sticks make up the bristles, with black-and-white striped handles sticking out above them.
This is such a fun way to package a simple snack. Tie each sealed bag with a little black bow to follow the look.
black cat candy cup
Don’t want to add lots of decorations? No problem there! This clear cup keeps things simple with orange, black and gold-wrapped sweets.
The black cat sticker is my favorite part. Add white tissue at the top and a black ribbon around the rim for the same neat finish.
ghosts pumpkins and snoopy
Can’t decide on a theme? This collage gives you plenty to choose from, with pumpkin faces, spiders, smiling ghosts and Snoopy.
I’d choose the ghost mug and pale ghost blanket for a mostly white basket. You don’t need every item shown here.
A few matching pieces would be just as cute.

spooky blind date with a book
If you’re gifting a reader, this wrapped book idea is worth saving. The black wrapping, butterfly print and skull decorations look so good together.
Try adding a short genre clue without revealing the title. A celestial bookmark and a little charm would make pretty extras, just like the details tucked into this bundle.
ghost mug and beauty gifts
This is another cute mug idea, but it’s a little different from the ones above. I love the smiling ghost beside the pink and cream beauty packaging.
Choose products you know the recipient already likes, then tuck them into a small white basket. The little pumpkin detail on the clear straw is worth keeping.
checks and autumn colors
Looking for something less spooky? This autumn collage has brown checks, pumpkin-print pajamas and little acorn and pastry-shaped characters.
I’d pair the brown-and-cream checked blanket with pumpkin slippers and a favorite snack. Add an orange jack-o’-lantern decoration if you want a little more Halloween in the mix.
black-eyed skull cups
These skull-shaped cups are for someone who likes their Halloween gifts a little creepier. The oversized black eye sockets and uneven tooth details look so good against the pale finish.
They’re striking enough on their own. I’d keep the gift wrapping plain black rather than adding more patterns.
little ghost treat packages
How adorable are these ghost-shaped packages? The draped white covers and three black ovals give them such simple little faces.
Use this as wrapping inspiration for a small treat gift. Keep the face plain if you want the same look, or add a tiny orange bow as your own extra touch.
cheeky ghost in a black box
Not every ghost has to look scary, haha! This white ghost has raised arms and a bright red tongue sticking out.
I love the black box and shredded filler around it. If you’re wrapping a single ghost-shaped gift, this is a cute way to let that little face be the whole decoration.
jack-o’-lantern slippers
I am obsessed with these pumpkin slippers. The orange jack-o’-lantern faces look so cute against the cream background, especially with those little green stems.
They’d make a lovely gift on their own. For a bigger bundle, try pairing them with pumpkin-print pajamas.
monsters mummies and pumpkin cookies
The little monster eyes are my favorite part of this treat box. Orange, green and purple toppings sit beside mummy faces, pumpkin cookies and spider-decorated cookies.

If you’re putting together your own assortment, mix a few larger treats with smaller sweets. The candy corn here fills the spaces between the different shapes.
cobwebs and favorite snacks
If you are looking for a basket with lots going on, then this one is for you. There’s a boxed character figure, candy and popcorn under a layer of decorative cobwebs.
Try building yours around a character the recipient loves. Add a skeleton hand at the side and a few spiders on the outside to follow this spooky setup.
personalized ghost tote
Last but definitely not least, we have this cute personalized tote. I love the different Halloween patterns inside the letters!
The white ghost above the name and little pumpkin garland below it finish the design.
