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.

Guide me!!
Lately I’ve been looking for guidance with setting up a home and decorating!! I seem to be the only one in my family born without the “Martha Gene”. We moved into our new home and I’m STUCK!
I know what I like -I just don’t know how to go from an empty room (or house) to a finished product. Somehow I always choose the wrong tone of carpet or a curtain color that just doesn’t go but then feel like I have to live with it because of the money spent. Please help! My wallet, my husband and I would greatly appreciate it!!

GUIDE ME!
Lately, I feel like a wedding therapist to talk to about all the things that have gone wrong while planning our wedding that is in exactly two months. I won’t rant about it here but right now I’m just happy to marry my fiance whether I have a dress or not . . .
Mary says
to paint or not to paint, that is the question…kitchen cabinets and/or wood trim and doors on my first floor. Yes it would look better, but the project overwhelms me. What is the best look I can get without painting all the trim? Then, is it worth the compromise? Design help desired!

We ‘youtube’ everything. Before the Droid we had to run to the computer, play, pause, make notes, run back to the toilet/miter saw/kegerator/etc over and over again. Now we play, pause, repeat on the spot over and over again.
