Autumn Gift Basket Ideas: What to Include for the Perfect Cosy Night In

When the days get shorter and the air gets crisp, nothing beats the comfort of a cosy night in. An autumn gift basket is the perfect way to capture that feeling in a thoughtful bundle - whether you’re surprising a friend, saying thank you, or treating yourself.

From snuggly socks to spiced candles and seasonal bakes, here are our favourite autumn gift basket ideas for 2025.

Autumn Cookies

No basket is complete without something sweet. Our Autumn Box of 10 cookies is designed to be the star of any seasonal hamper. With hand-iced designs like pumpkins, hedgehogs, autumn leaves, and quotes such as “cosy season” and “snuggle weather”, they’re as beautiful as they are delicious.

As far as autumn food ideas go, cookies that feel like a hug are hard to beat. They also make lovely autumn letterbox gifts if you want to send a little seasonal cheer to someone who can’t be there in person.

Kindred Fires Autumn Candle

Set the mood with the warm glow of an autumn-scented candle. The Kindred Fires Autumn Candle fills the room with cosy notes that perfectly complement a night under the blanket with a biscuit (or two!).

Socktopus Forest Animals Socks

Nothing says comfort quite like new socks. These forest animal socks are fun, snuggly, and a small gift that makes a cosy gift in your basket.

Pretty Little Home Pumpkin Speckled Mug

Hot chocolate, tea, or spiced lattes - whatever your drink of choice, an autumn-themed mug makes it taste even better. The Pretty Little Home Pumpkin Mug ties the whole basket together.

Lulu Loves Home Rust Orange Throw Blanket

The finishing touch? A soft blanket in warm rust tones. Perfect for wrapping up while enjoying your candle, cookies, and cuppa. It turns your basket from a bundle of gifts into a whole cosy night-in experience.

Bonus Idea: Turn it Into a Boo Basket

If you’re making this for Halloween, why not theme it as a boo basket? Add a spooky twist with autumnal sweets or small Halloween trinkets, and you’ve got the perfect seasonal surprise for kids, friends, or neighbours.

Whether you’re pulling together autumn gift basket ideas for a loved one or sending one of our ready-made autumn letterbox gifts, the magic of autumn is all about slowing down, getting cosy, and enjoying the little things.
