your work is just spectacular! every photo is absolutely stunning, so realistic, so well crafted, so beautifully styled - you can definitely count me as one of your biggest fans!

By far one of the most excellent miniature homes ever- I agree with Eloise- your work is outstanding. If you stumbled upon your blog you would never know these were minis- unbelievable

Excepcional, una casa preciosa, exquisita.......cada foto es una pequeña obra de arte, cada rincon, no hay palabras, estoiy de acuerdo con Eloise y con Kim, impresionante excepcional, ya ves que los adjetivos son los mismos, un beso grande y gracias por compartir.

I ♥♥♥♥♥ your newport! Everything looks so realistic and it's all so well crafted. It's always a pleasure admiring your work! =)

I bow in admiration! This house is PERFECT! There is not a single detail that I don't love. The rug and the chair cushion in the living room are two of my favorite things.
The chest is gorgeous! I could go on and on.... and on!
You add just the right amount of accessories, the most beautiful colors and your photography is outstanding!
Thanks so much for sharing these photos. I can't WAIT to see your Spring Fling entry when it's finished!

Es un trabajo precioso! toda la casa es bellísima, pero no sé si seré excéntrica... el garage me encanta.
Un abrazo y mis felicitaciones

Thank you all so much! As I was compiling these photos, I realized how much I miss working on the Newport. It took a back seat to my sewing hobby for awhile, and now the Spring Fling. But, I think I needed time away to miss it. There are a few challenges that await me with the Newport and I think I have the motivation to tackle them now.

I think the garage is my favorite, too! It always makes me smile when I look at it.

STUNNING. I am at a loss for words, truly. It is obvious how much love and care you put into your work. You are an artist! Thanks for sharing your creativity. P.S., those bedroom lamps are to DIE for. And, love the bike, of course

Love all you pics and projects. everything looks so modern, neat and tidy with such an excellent flare for taste. It's like athe DIY channel with and excellent decorator!! beautiful work you do!!!!!

I'm having a hard time picking a favourite out of this lot. You take photographs really well and capture the mood perfectly. Just stunning

Everything is so perfect, Brae. It's always such a treat to look at your beautiful work. You are such an inspiration to me.

Thank you all for your kind words of encouragement!

An absolute delight Brae - every room is so realistic and perfect, your use of lighting is wonderful - you do such wonderful work!!!

That picture with the range hood is unreal. And by unreal, I mean it looks so REAL! Is that backsplash textured scrapbooking paper?

Actually, most of these pictures look unreal! Fantastic!

Is there a picture of the whole Newport house somewhere? Just wondering what the layout looks like.

Thanks so much, Teddi and Ann!

The range backsplash is vinyl textured ceiling tile sheet painted with silver paint, then rubbed away to give more depth. You can see it here: http://www.otterine.com/blog/blog1.php/range-hood-lighting

I am still stuck on the second floor since I have to plan the lighting channels for the third floor and upper tower room before finishing up the master bedroom and conservatory on the second floor. When I started, I figured it would be a five-year project since I knew nothing at the time and want to do it right. This is also why I take breaks from it since it is such a large project.

oh my god i want to live in a place like this this looks 101001010200x nicer than my house
