2. Rinse strawberries and slice each one in half lengthwise. Choose firm, ripe strawberries so they hold their shape on the skewer.

3. On each skewer or wooden stick, thread the fruit in this order: start with a watermelon star at the top, followed by one blueberry, one mini marshmallow, one blackberry, and finish with a strawberry half. Angle the strawberry slightly so it lays flat and stays secure.
