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)

- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere they have the internet! Yup, this one’s global, baby.

I need a recipe for guidance. My husband, on the other hand, can whip up a meal without a recipe.

GUIDE ME
Monica says
Guide me
I need guidance on cooking!
Jenni says
GUIDE ME!
Yikes, what don’t I need guidance on?! I guess the internet (and YHL ;) is my best guide in most areas of my life. Cooking, taking care of plants (I have a black thumb), painting, what to give people for weddings–I like to see examples before I do anything! :) Also, my parents gave me a GPS for Christmas, and I don’t know how I ever lived without one.
Heather says
Guide me- I need lots of help in the decorating department!

JMay says
GUIDE ME! I often turn to blogs for inspiration and guidance on dinner ideas.
Kathryn says
Guide me!
We just bought our first house and seem to need assistance with all things related to it. We go to the internet first (imagine that) for tips and tricks as well as inspiration.
Kimberj says
Guide Me!!!!! I’ve always been a big believer that its more important to know how to quickly and accurately resource something than to actually be someone who knows it all. I depend on GPS, books, internet, library, therapist (yes I have issues… who doesn’t!), etc. to find answers to all of life’s little and big questions :)
Katie says
Guide me!
I have a lopsided, 25′ x 17′ family room that I am finding impossible to lay out furniture in!
Mary says
“GUIDE ME!”
I could use some help in the kitchen. I’m not a very good cook. I end up making the same things all the time because that’s all I know how to make.
heidi says
GUIDE ME!
I love rules & I love following them (love baking & anything else with exact measurements, etc). I have no sense of direction & will often call my best friend and/or husband to lead the way or lean on my handy GPS to get me out of a bind. I just like to seek wise council in the people/books/devices around me.
Meagan says
GUIDE ME!
I’m not one to accept help readily (must. do. it. myself…. oops) but when it comes to decorating my place I am absolutely ready and willing!
B says
Guide me! I am always asking my parents cooking questions.
Denise says
GUIDE ME! I count on “Linda” our GPS to take me everywhere. This contest sure came at the right time. Our Family room should could use an overhaul!! Really. I mean it. Right now.

Brooke says
GUIDE ME
JessP says
GUIDE ME! I can’t believe what perfect timing this post is for me. I have been attempting to sketch our family room on scraps of paper as we plan our new furniture and flooring needs. Impossible! Love guidance in all forms. The invention of the GPS allowed this phobic highway driver to venture out into the world a bit more!
Holly Heffinger says
GUIDE ME! I could really use this.
Lacey says
Guide Me! Internet, lots of prayer, or badgering my husband until he just picks something so I don’t :)
