I (Vicki) decided to make a folding screen after I observed my yoga ball and mat are always in plain sight when not in use. I thought with a screen, I could place these in a corner with the screen in front and not have to look at them during the week! Bonus, I found a piece of mid-century looking vinyl for the screen that has jumpstarted the redecorating of my bedroom.

We used oak boards and hinges from The Home Depot. I found the vinyl fabric at a yard sale put on by a designer. I didn't think I'd find anything there, but I ended up getting my perfect living room rug, two lamps, and a $5.00 roll of vinyl! It was a good yard sale day!
The frames are made from 1x2's (6 at 6' each for the sides) and 9 pieces of 1x3's cut to 12 7/8" which are the horizontal pieces. We marked all the horizontal pieces and cut them on the miter saw.
Using the Kreg Pocket Hole Jig, we made pocket holes in each of the 9 horizontal pieces. Each piece got four holes.
We squared everything up and secured the boards with pocket hole screws. Those long clamps helped to keep everything square while we put in the screws.
I cut out the corners so the wood corners would show. The arrow is so I was able to keep the vinyl all going in the same direction on all three pieces.
The upholstery stapler goes on a standard compressor hose. The DeWalt filled quickly and refilled in about 30 seconds. Hearing and eye protection is a must!
We added hinges to connect the screen panels. Two panels are placed back

Carol Klein at RHS Hampton Court Flower Show
Just before Christmas, Clare Matterson, director general of the RHS, wrote to ask if I would be RHS Hampton Court’s Iconic Horticultural Hero for 2023, which was both shocking and flattering in equal measure! Because of that, I was able to design a garden for the Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival.
