I just finished putting up this wall decal in my daughters room. It basically takes up the whole wall.
But I still want a growth chart. I dont want a decal because we can move with it, So i want either a wooden one or fabric, sometime reusable..
Do you have a growth chart on your wall? Please share

I'm going to have my husband take a two by six and design it to look like an old wooden ruler and then hang that on her wall.

@MamaMoose: . @mamabear57: @yourekindapretty: Yeah I like the wood ones i just wonder where we would paint it and dry it since we live in an apartment... I realy like the ones that have the numbers almost burnt into the wood
@littlek: thats really nice, its that a decal?
@Chillybear: wow I;ve heard of fabric charts but this is the first one I've seen. I like how it hangs on the door. But how do you mark their height on it?

@Mrsbells: in the back the corners i make little pockest and i put a dowel rod in there... to mark measurements each "row" is 1 inch so if the Dr measures kid to be 37" you would go up 37 spaces and write in or embroider in the height

@littlek: No thats okay I actually found a compromise!
As an update to everyone I found a decal on etsy which can be applied to wood to look like a wood ruler without me having to paint on it!!! I am so excited by this!

We got ours from Target online, it came as a rolled sticker and we just bought a 6"x8' pre-primed board to stick it on. We don't have much wall space, so I put it up outside his door with mirror clips.

@lemondrop: wow i wouldnt have even thought of using mirror clips. Good idea! I also didnt even realize target sold these
