Instructions
- Start with a layer of nuts and dried fruits at the bottom of each of your jars or glasses.
- Construct your skewers. You can do this in lots of different variations ~ refer to the photos for inspiration. Fold sliced meats in quarters or roll them before threading. You can mix meat and cheese, or do them separately. Top each skewer with a pickle or other small item. Thread berries onto their own skewers.
- Begin by adding your skewers to your jars. Use about 3 per jar.

- Add bread sticks and crackers. Then insert the herb sprig. You're ready to serve!
