Laminate planks fit together in a tongue-and-groove formation, and they are usually not attached to the subfloor with adhesive or nails. As you pry up the planks, they should easily snap free of each other. Climate changes and excessive humidity can cause the plywood subfloor in your RV to rot. If you notice any signs of damage, including black discoloration, soft spots, cracks, or warped wood, use a skill saw to cut away the affected area, then replace it with new plywood. Marine plywood is ideal for use in an RV because it is resistant to changes in temperature and humidity. If you’re using tongue-and-groove floor planks, using the longest pieces first will allow you to make fewer cuts. Each time you cut a plank, you lose a joint, so you will want to make as few cuts as possible. The female side of the plank will have a groove that goes inwards, while the male piece will have a piece that fits into the groove. Line up the male connector of the second piece with the female side of the first piece, then tap the second plank lightly with the mallet to lock it into place. Continue this process down the wall. Spacers will protect your floor from warping when your RV is exposed to dramatic temperature changes. Place at least 2 spacers along each wall as you install the floor. Some plank flooring will come with spacers included, but if yours doesn’t, you can purchase them at a flooring supply store. Most of your pieces should be easily cut with a utility knife. However, a jigsaw will offer more precision if you need to make more detailed cuts. . Rounded trim will give your new flooring a finished look, and it will also help hide any gaps between the floor and the wall. Use caution when nailing anything in an RV, since you can puncture the exterior. Tighten the furniture down with a wrench so it will be stable while the RV is moving, then relax in your renovated camper!

Summary: Use a crowbar to remove existing plank flooring. Repair any damage to the subfloor, if necessary. Start along the longest wall if you're installing new laminate planks. Lay the first plank with the female side facing outwards. Use spacers with plank flooring to allow them to expand and contract. Cut the remaining planks to length with a utility knife or jigsaw. Replace the trim you removed Replace any furniture you removed.


A primer is just a light makeup you apply to your eyelids before eye shadow. It can help keep your eye shadow in place, which is good for metallic eye shadows since they are more likely to come off. Plus, it can really make the color and shimmer pop. Apply the primer across the the top of your eyelid, going all the way up to your eyebrow. If you sweep across the top of your eyelid, you'll end up with glitter all across your face. Instead, gently press down on the eyelid with a padded brush, so you press the eye shadow into the skin, holding it in place. You can also use a flat brush to apply metallics. With your next color, press it along the eye line, moving from where you ended the lighter color to the outer corner of your eye. Press it into this line, keeping towards the eye, then move upward after you've finished adding color in this area. You may take your eye shadow above your crease at times, and that's fine. However, with metallics, it's best to stay down lower, at least with the main color. Covering the crease with a metallic just makes it stand out more.

Summary: Add a primer first. Press down rather than brushing. Work from the eye line outward. Don't take it above the crease.


Plan out in your mind exactly what you want to tell the person. This will help you be clear, and will also help you stay focused on what you need to say if you start to lose your courage.  Have answers ready for any questions you can anticipate the other person asking. He or she will almost certainly want to know why this is happening, and if there's any chance you will change your mind.  Be specific about the grievances that have led you to this decision, and be clear about the fact that the relationship is over--this is not up for negotiation. Plan to say something like, "Because of X, I need to break up with you," not "I've been thinking maybe we need a break from each other." If you can, talk over what you plan to say with a trusted friend beforehand. Ask your friend to tell you if anything seems unclear, and what questions they might anticipate the other person having. You can also ask your friend if you are being too harsh, or if anything you are saying might give the other person false hope. Ending a relationship is hard. It will be difficult, both for you and the other person. Expect an emotional reaction, and do your best to steel yourself for it.  Think about what kind of support you may need after the conversation. Make plans in advance to do what you will need to do to take care of yourself.  You may need some time alone afterwards. Or, you may want to meet with a friend. Think about what will be most helpful to you and make arrangements.

Summary: Think about what you want to say. Get some feedback. Prepare yourself, mentally and emotionally.


Make sure to just blot the spot; do not rub it since rubbing might spread the wine over even more of your wooden surface. Continue blotting until there is no more red wine on the table. If some red wine stain remains, continue with the following steps.   Make sure to use the appropriate furniture polish for your wood table. Polish the entire surface according to the products' instructions.
Summary: Blot the red wine spill with a damp absorbent cloth immediately as it happens. Use a soft, dry towel to dry the area. Put a few drops of ammonia on a damp, soft cloth. Wipe the stained area lightly with the cloth. Apply some furniture polish to a soft cloth and rub the affected area vigorously.
