Wooden ruler growth chart

This measuring stick has been designed to look like an old fashioned ruler using feet and inches.

I initially just made this for myself as a holiday project because I wanted to create a record of the childrens growth that we could take with us if we moved. This design reminded me of my late Grandpa’s builders rule that we used together in his workshop…wonderful happy memories. I’ve had so many requests to produce them for sale that I have finally got organised and am now making them on a “made to order” basis.

Made from clears pine timber with a white paint wash, the numbers and measurements are hand stenciled onto the timber using a special black acrylic paint art pen. Because this is made from natural timber each one will have a unique timber grain finish and will not look exactly the same as the one pictured.

It is designed to be mounted above the skirting board on your wall so I have allowed a 6 inch clearance which should accommodate most household skirting, however if you require more please just let me know so I can customise this in production. The width is 18cm and the length of the board is 205cm, however I can easily shorten this to fit your space.

Your wooden growth chart comes with brackets ready for mounting and detailed mounting instructions. The ruler also comes with an Artline fine pen to mark your children's heights (red is my favourite!), I have black, red, pink, purple and yellow in stock, please specify your preference.

You may like to do what I have done and convert all the measurements from your children’s Plunket books into feet and inches so I could mark them up from birth.

PLEASE ALLOW 1 WEEK FOR PRODUCTION and then up to approximately 3 days for courier delivery.

Please also note the additional courier fee for Rural Delivery.

PLEASE NOTE: if not hanging the ruler straight away, please ensure it is stored in an upright position or laid flat on the ground.
