It goes without saying that we’re big fans of decorating and design help through the magic of the internet. So of course we’re psyched that one of you is gonna score some customized assistance from My Design Guide. They tap into a network of real interior designers to help you out with everything from quick fix mini-consults (which come free just by completing their StyleFinder quiz) to full blown 3-D renderings with paint color picks, furniture selections, and a shopping list (see a sample here). The latter of which our winner will be cashing in on this week. Woot.
- PRIZE: A 3D Custom Room Design from My Design Guide (a $229 value)

GUIDE ME! I need guidance with lots of things, but the most recent task I needed help with was potty training my oldest son.

Whew!

Leah says
Guide Me!
I’m constantly on google maps trying to find my way to new places – I’ll look at alternate routes to find what I think is best, not what the computer thinks is best. I also like to look at many recipes for the same dish, then mix and match to make it my own!
Megan S. says
GUIDE ME!! :)
Sarah says
GUIDE ME! Please please – we’re getting ready to do a kitchen renovation, and I really need some help to make sure that the adjoining family room doesn’t get forgotten in the process. My normal go to, google, hasn’t turned up the answer yet to “what do I do when my fire place mantle and hearth are too big for the space”, or “how to make my fireplace and wood nook more size appropriate for the room”. Help!
Harper says
GUIDE ME! I need some serious help with our family room. We have a gas furnace and a pellet stove on the same wall. Can you say design dilemma??

Paige Cotney says
GUIDE ME! I use the internet for everything!
Sarah A. says
GUIDE ME!
This looks great,and would be so useful!
I have to say that except for cooking, I seem to rely on the internet for everything – looking up directions, reviews of things to purchase, hours of the library. I still like some human guidance when I’m making expensive decisions, but the internet and the reader reviews guide me most places!
Jen says
GUIDE ME! I rely on guidance in all aspects of life – music (no improving for me!), cooking (must have recipe), doctor (obsess over online reviews), color of paint for walls (YHL, and oodles more blogs for opinions, pointers, etc).
CarrieK says
GUIDE ME! Without recipes my husband and I would survive on mac & cheese alone! Sad.
Ali says
GUIDE ME!
I definitely depend on our GPS when we go on trips. I am useless when it comes to knowing what direction I’m facing at any given time. Isn’t whatever way you’re facing always North? :) Really, I’m terrible.
Ashley says
Guide me! I am attached to my gps…even when I’m not driving. :)
