If your living room is more dreary than dreamy, get your Style My Room contest entry in by today's deadline to be eligible for a room makeover worth $30,000.

The contest, sponsored by RSVPstyle and The Honolulu Advertiser, has been taking entries since Jan. 4, and entrants who want room makeovers and design and decor tips from RSVPstyle's Cathy Lee have already won almost $12,000 in weekly prizes.

But the grand prize, which includes a $30,000 living room makeover and an appearance in a KITV prime-time special, has yet to be picked. That winner will be revealed March 15.
