This is really fun and I love the form for the fruit. <br /><br />No, the mural has been there for 7 years now.

Colonial Williamsburg sells very realistic fruit for those forms, but you won't get the apple scent from them. I put the old apples out for the animals in the winter so I don't feel so bad about using them. And just ignore that man! I'm sure he is very pleased when he sits down to that beautiful table with that centerpiece!
