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?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 15th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere they have the internet! Yup, this one’s global, baby.
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

Shaun says
GUIDE ME! I need serious interior design help. Moved into our house over a year ago and still haven’t hung a thing on the wall!
Melissa says
GUIDE ME!
I pretty much need everything, maps because I am directionally challanged. Recipes because everything would taste bad if I didn’t have that. EVERTHING !
charity says
GUIDE ME!
I totally like assistance with DIY. Either fab blogs like your own or help from the pros at the stores. I wish there were more classes on how to do things. Googling things is great but asking a real live person is better.
Sara says
GUIDE ME!
I desperately need design guidance. I turned off my “creative” side many years ago when I started a career in IT. Now it is dormant, and I can’t revive it.
Dana says
GUIDE ME!
Beth says
GUIDE ME…we need guidance all the time for helping with our 70 year old house, which is one of the reason I love your site. We also seek guidance a lot from our local hardware store.
Abigail says
Guide me! I could use help redecorating our new apartment!
Dana says
GUIDE ME!
In terms of decorating, I could sure use some guidance with our living room. Trying to turn builder basic into rustic and comfy is harder than I thought it’d be. Instead we’re stuck in that “don’t know what to do so we do nothing” stage. Awesome.
Aubrey says
GUIDE ME! I need guidance with a nursery design!!
Megan says
GUIDE ME! Right now, I need a good carrot cake recipe. Mine was a total fail last time and I have to try again next weekend.
Lauren says
GUIDE ME… I need some major help on the design aspects of our master bedroom. Have ideas, but making it come to life is quite a challenge. :-)

natalia says
GUIDE ME!
Internet is kind of a substitute for the mother for the grandma for the professor.. kind of cool and sad at the same time
Maria Bingham says
Guide Me! I use food network’s web site all the time. At 5pm I look up what I have in the fridge and try to adapt it to what’s on-hand. My husband eats anything I make so I usually score. I’m the one who needs navigation help to get around but I bought my husband a GPS for Christmas one year and he enjoys it so much he won’t let it out of his sight. Maybe I can get it when I get him a new one! I love all decorating shows/sites and would love some help with a north facing (aka — dark) living room/music room. -Maria
Erin in Austin,TX says
Guide ME! I need assistance in just about everything! I especially like road maps for when we are road trippin’. I know everyone has GPS and all, but I still really like following along on the trusty paper map!

Guide Me! I love hand-me-down cookbooks from my grandma and aunties! They help me make the best southern dishes EVER!

Guide me…I’m most in need of guidance when tackling home projects. I always end up calling my mom, “how do i…” or “have you ever…?” Sometimes it helps!
Lisa in Seattle says
GUIDE ME!
I get lost all the time, so I need maps out the wazoo (although I probably can’t even find my wazoo with both hands and a flashlight). Also recipes – they have to be exact with no room for misinterpretation. Ideally with step-by-step pictures.

GUIDE ME! I have no sense of direction. My husband claims he has seen me lean over to get a drink at a drinking fountain, and then stand up and walk the wrong direction. I wish I could deny this, but it is undoubtedly true.
