Unless you have been living under a rock as of late, you have probably heard all about the wonders of the charcuterie board. T
here are all sorts of fun takes on these boards for you to enjoy, and now that Valentine’s Day is rolling around again, there are all sorts of boards that are starting to make the rounds.
DIY charcuterie bouquets are one of the best ways of showcasing your love for your partner if you ask us. They perfectly pair fine meats, cheeses, and bouquets – what better gift is there than that?
Instagram user @wholefoodcravings created a beautiful DIY version and it turned out stunning.
The process of making them is not nearly as challenging as you would think. To get started, you need to gather your favorite crackers, breadsticks, meats, and cheeses. You’ll also need wooden skewers, as they are going to serve as the base for the delicious creation.
The cheese pieces can be sliced into hearts, and if you want to get super fancy, you can add grapes and olives to some additional skewers. Anyone who needs to fill in any gaps that are leftover can add some real flowers to the bouquet. Trust us on this one: it is a very nice touch. For best results, the base of the bouquet should also be wrapped in cellophane. Again, trust us on this one.

Anyone who would like to leave this one in the hands of the pros is more than welcome to head to Etsy instead. There are shops that will do all of the work for you, leaving you with little to worry about.
We cannot think of a better dining option for two this year, especially since many of the restaurants are going to be closed.
