Step 1

Start by adding elements that anchor the board like the small dishes and the cheeses. Make sure cheeses are cut into small bite-sized slices or pieces.

Step 2

Add fruit, veggies, and meats around the cheeses. I created little pockets of sliced peaches along with cherries and grapes removed from the vines and arranged the sliced meat in little stacks.

Step 3

Fill in with your crackers, arranging them so they are easy for guests to grab.

Step 4

Add spreads or dips to your containers.

Step 5

Fill in any gaps with fresh herbs and/or loose fruit pieces. I used fresh rosemary, thyme, and sage along with loose cherries as fillers.

Step 6

Add small utensils, such as mini forks, spoons, tongs, and spreaders for cheeses, meats, and spreads or dips.
