  1. Gather all your antipasto ingredients. Slice the salami, cheese, and roasted red peppers into manageable pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes and pit the olives if necessary. Chop larger items like artichoke hearts into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Take large toothpicks and begin threading the prepared ingredients onto them. Alternate colors and types to create a visually appealing array.
  3. Place a large round platter or cutting board in front of you. Start arranging the skewers in a circular wreath shape, placing them close together.
  4. Tuck fresh rosemary sprigs around the wreath for aromatic freshness and a festive touch.
  5. For the final flourish, sprinkle a handful of microgreens on top of your charcuterie wreath.
  6. Once beautifully assembled, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
