There are more than 3500 posts under #thanksgivingcharcuterie on Instagram, so it seems we’re not the only ones intrigued by these delectable holiday displays. We’ve rounded up a few of our favorite images to help inspire your own holiday snacking. Follow these steps to build your own Thanksgiving charcuterie board, and borrow inspiration from these gorgeous photos to give your board a festive holiday spirit. Set this year’s holiday board apart by sticking to a theme. We love how Meg Quinn from Ain’t Too Proud To Meg carried a fall leaf theme throughout her board by pairing leaf-shaped chips, cookies, and cheese cutouts with her meats and fruits. And the addition of chocolate turkeys takes the board from fall to Thanksgiving in one quick step. Check out the post on her website to see all of the ingredients she used on her board and learn how to make a perfect brie cutout. If you’re celebrating with just a few people, you may not feel like making multiple full-size pies this Thanksgiving. You can still get your pie fix this season with this genius idea from Amy of A Little Love Designs. She put together a pie-themed dessert board topped with mouthwatering mini pies, so you can snack your way through the dessert table without having a dozen pieces of pie leftover. With the addition of pretty fruits and florals, this might just be one of the most beautiful dessert spreads we’ve seen. You don’t need to become a master baker to really wow your family this Thanksgiving. Take a few tips from Eden Passante of Sugar and Charm, who created a gorgeous Thanksgiving appetizer spread atop a round serving board. To find out exactly what ingredients she included on the board, check out her blog post with all the details. Brooke Dunigan’s Thanksgiving creation is almost too pretty to eat! She paired the typical fruit, cheese, meat, and crackers with festive elements like leaf-shaped cookies, mini pumpkins, and an edible, ‘‘Give thanks.’ With its bright red fruits and green rosemary sprigs, you could recreate this design again at Christmas—with an updated holiday phrase, of course. Thanksgiving is the season to reflect on what we’re grateful for, and a gorgeous grazing board would definitely make the list this season! Arranged atop The Giving Board ($30, Love Paper Creations), this spread of orange, red, and yellow snacks has us in the Thanksgiving spirit already.
