Finish: Superior Danish Oil
Aftercare: Product maintenance is very important. We recommend you continue to treat your product with Danish oil or similar timber treatment oil to protect the timber and stop it drying out. This will also help to prevent staining, discolouration, cracking and warping.
About Timber: Natural timber will always want to move. It’s going to expand and shrink as the temperature and humidity changes in your home and outside, rest assured it won’t change drastically. Small hairline splits may occur as your product ages, this is completely normal and is regarded as part of the timbers natural beauty. As the seasons change you may see some movement in your product, again this is completely normal.
Do not store your product outside, in a garden shed or a garage.
If you need any help or advise on how to maintain your product please contact us or consult your care guide.

A personalised height chart, handmade from solid English oak.
Our oak height charts are made to record every growth spurt, for children, grandchildren and adults too. Engraved with your family name, each one is built to hang on your wall for years and be treasured long after the last mark is made. Forget the biro on the old door frame. This is a height chart your family will actually keep.
Every chart is handcrafted to order in our Hampshire workshop from a single piece of Superior Grade English oak, so the grain runs unbroken from top to bottom. We finish each one by hand until it’s silky smooth, and every scale marking is cut with precision. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is mass-produced.
You won’t find a wooden wall height chart made with this much care. Each one is a thing of beauty, and one that gets more meaningful with every mark you add.
Printed charts and canvas height charts curl, fade and are thrown away. A solid oak height chart is built to hang on your wall for the whole of your children’s childhoods, and often long enough to be passed on. Because it’s engraved with your own name or message, it’s a gift people keep rather than one that sits in a cupboard.
You can choose to have your beautiful measuring wall charts to have either engraved Metric or Imperial measurements on either side or both if you wish – it is entirely up to you. No matter what you decide, this leaves a vast area in the centre of the board for you to record the growth of your children and grandchildren – adults too of course.
When it comes to recording heights on the height chart, we would recommend using a permanent marker which you can buy online or from a stationary shop.
All of our engraved wooden height charts come with our usual heavy-duty invisible screw head fixings. So there will be no visible fixings on display once your wall chart is up on the wall. All you need is four screws in the wall and the oak ruler will hang perfectly suspended.
Our solid oak Height Charts come with a personalised engraving of your choice at the top of the chart included in the price. Perfect for your family name. It won’t matter how much lettering is added to the top of the height chart, we will always include enough timber to allow plenty of space for your chosen engraving.
You can also have further engraving inscriptions down the long side edges. Up to 50 characters per side. Longer inscriptions are available by request. Ideal for a special message or favourite family quote.
3.5cm x 25cm x 1.7Metres (1.5” x 10” x 67”) Your height chart can be longer due to your personalised engraving at the top. You may have to allow 2.2 metres (floor to the top go your height chart) for long inscriptions.
10 – 14 working days. Please be aware this can change daily. If you require an item to be made by a specific date please contact us.
All engravings are in capitals. For lower case lettering, this can be requested at the time of order. Please add this to the note section at checkout or you can contact us via email or phone. All sizes are approximate.

Dear Ben
The eagle has landed, and what a whopper it is!
It’s amazing, and it will have a long life as the granddaughter in question is only 11 months old!!
My daughter wanted something ‘special’ for her baby, and I can’t wait to see her face on Christmas Day!!!
Your website doesn’t really give the impression of scale, you need someone standing next to the piece to give a sense of its size. Monumental; is the word.
Your packaging is staggeringly thorough, I needed a lie-down from the exertion of opening the parcel!
I’m sure you’ll have a very successful 2017.
Kind regards,
Robert

From discussing exactly what it was I wanted through to ensuring our order came through on time (early in fact!) and had been delivered safely, the customer service I received from ‘Make Me Something Special’ was excellent. It is a joy to have received something that clearly a lot of time and care went into.
We now have our family height chart in pride of place on our wall. The quality of the wood is excellent, the engraving perfect and it has been designed exactly to my specifications – this was something I had been unable to achieve anywhere else I looked and importantly the price was very reasonable in comparison too.
Thank you so much.
