Johnson Brothers Harvest Fruit Tablescape

For those of you who've been around for a while you know that I've snuck in some oldies, but tonight I have finally got a new tablescape to share with you.  It's the first one I've put together in quite some time as I've recently reposted tables from the past.   Mind you, it took me a couple of days plus a couple more days to put it together, but I did it.  Woo hoo!  Now, my family just needs to enjoy it together….so I'm hoping Sunday evening might be the night.  It's hard to get all my kids around the table at one time anymore.   Don't look to closely around my dining room because I've done nothing in here except stack dishes and straighten up when I know we're expecting company.  I've hung a few things here and there but for the most part it's as it was when we moved in.  It's not bad, just not me…yet Anyway, I recently acquired a large set of some of the most beautiful, collected and perfectly Autumnal brown tra
