Hopefully by now you figured this out, but if not... I might overstate the numbers here, but this will work for a starter. Play around with it once you get your guide to move in.

Draw an outer wall 5-6 blocks tall, with a ceiling 8 blocks long. Add a back wall, and make sure it's complete. Knock out three blocks on one wall and put a door there. Put a table and chair in the room (don't have to be adjacent to one another). Put a torch (or other light source) in the room somewhere.
 * NOTE: Back wall tiles overlap; just hold down the mouse button and paint until it's seamless. (this is probably the problem some of you others are having)
