‘Burr baskets’ are TikTok’s favorite seasonal gift — what are they, and how do you make one?

Now that the holidays are here, people are starting to create “Burr Baskets” for lucky friends, family and loved ones. These winter-themed gift baskets typically include a few small items, like fuzzy slippers and packets of hot cocoa, but can be as simple or as lavish as you wish. It’s all about creating a thoughtful gift filled with lots of seasonal coziness.

So far, the #BurrBaskets hashtag has more than 128.4 million views on the app — a number that continues to grow as the chilly season progresses.

Some accounts are posting gift guides to inspire online shoppers, while others are filming step-by-step tutorials on how to put one together in stores.

When it comes to what a Burr Basket can look like, the sky’s the limit. Some users are taking unused baskets they’ve had in their home for years, while others are buying inexpensive ones at stores like Target or HomeGoods.

They don’t have to be traditional wicker baskets, either. Many people are using canvas storage baskets that could later be transformed into home organizers.

Then comes the fun part: picking all the goodies that go inside.

Some of the most popular items tend to be holiday-themed candles, chocolates and coffee mugs. Plenty of gift-givers go the extra mile, placing throw blankets, plush slippers, gift cards and even Stanley tumblers inside their Burr Baskets.

While the theme of each basket is basically “cozy holiday,” each can be personalized for the gift recipient, which is what makes them both fun and thoughtful.

Burr Baskets are a spin on “Boo Baskets,” which became popular this year around Halloween. They, too, focus on coziness and often feature scented candles, warm blankets and holiday chocolates. Instead of a Christmas or Winter Wonderland look, Boo Baskets are all about fall vibes — trading red-and-green gift items for ones with burnt orange, plaid and a touch of cable knit.
