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)
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “GUIDE ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about when you need guidance. Do you rely on maps or navigation systems to get you where you’re going? Recipe sites and books for cooking help? Friend and family input when it comes to relationship advice? Or pro assistance at the home improvement store?

Sharon Sprague says
GUIDE ME! My fiance and I are moving in together. Rather, I’m moving into his soon-to-be charming mid-century house. It needs serious love and help. And I’m just the one to give it that. We’ve both been through so much together, loss of jobs, loss of family and we really look forward to this new adventure together. He’s giving me free reign and I’m runnin’ baby! :) But his living room, the angles are so weird and I just don’t know how to do it up. Except for getting rid of those nasty funeral-home looking drapes. :)
Bonus Question: I need guidance when my internal compass goes haywire. It’s usually spot on but country roads and one-way streets can really screw with a girl.

The Internet is my go-to portal for guidance on anything from product reviews, how-tos, business/restaurant recommendations, recipes, you name it! Sometimes there is so much info that I often find myself with analysis paralysis – haha.

Liz S. says
Guide me! Please for the love of Pete, guide me!
My hubby and I have just purchased our first house. We’ve both been apartment dwellers in the not-so-architecturally-stellar Chicago ‘burbs, and so neither of us has had the opportunity to do so much as paint our own walls!
Now we have a combined family room/open kitchen with wood paneling from floor to ceiling (I wish I was kidding) and 4 awesome sliding doors – but what do with it all? Having never had the chance to renovate, I’m at a total loss and I could REALLY use the guidance…before I rack up the credit card bill with failed decor ideas.
Lisa says
Guide me! I need help with anything home-related.
