Layout a large platter or cutting board for the base of the charcuterie board. If the surface or platter is not food safe, parchment paper can be placed on top.
Place two smaller trays or containers in opposite corners on the board. Fill one of them with crackers or bread and the other with the roasted grapes and olives, jam, or chutney.
Arrange the cheeses around the empty spaces on the board so they are spread out and not all in one place.
Thinly slice the fresh fruit and arrange them next to the pieces of cheese.
Fold the slices of meat into quarters or into small bunches and tuck them between the fruit, cheese and trays.
Fill in any remaining spaces left on the tray with dried fruit and nuts.
Make adjustments so there are no empty spaces and that all of the items are easily accessible.
Garnish finished tray with fresh herbs, if desired.
