For the last several years, we have been marking Maddi and Mason's heights on a column outside our garage...so when I saw this on Pinterest, I knew I HAD to make one!
Thanks, Pinterest! Here's the link to the girl who came up with a great idea!http://517creations.blogspot.com/2011/04/ruler-growth-chart-pottery-barn-knock.html
I started with the supplies...super cheap, since I had most of it already...
Stained the board the night before last...
Worked on the rest of it the next day with a cute little overseer...
And waaahlaaaah!...
I just need to hang it with a bullnose thingy 6 inches off the ground...
Love it and can't wait to transfer Maddi and Mason's measurments and get Levi started!!!
FUN and SUPER EASY!
TRY IT!!!

Misty Reim Williston No, Holly! I ordered those from sara at a vintage poster...she did some for me for Levi's room, too! And a home sweet home the williston family for our living room. Love them. You can google her...a vintage poster, but look on her blog too, from there. She has designs she can make on their that aren't on her store website!

Brian Lauren 'Thayer' Peterson love! This will be added to our to do list. I've been needing one of these. What are you using to mark each of their growths?

Misty Reim Williston Lauren-I'm gonna let the kids choose their choice of sharpie marker and keep that same color and write the height/date/name each year! I used a sharpie to do the lines and numbers, so that should work great.
