Handcrafted Timeline Growth Rulers

Treasure the precious moments of your child's growth with a beautiful keepsake! Our beautiful wooden Timeline Growth Rulers are a truly unique way to create a permanent record of your child's growth and development. Make your memories last forever with your very own 6' 6” solid maple Timeline Growth Ruler."

Our skilled craftsmen produce these rules using the same premium quality materials and production methods that were developed and perfected by the forebears of our company: methods that have been continuously practiced since 1869.

The wooden rulers are cut and molded from select Sugar Maple, the species preferred by generations of toolmakers for its superior strength, stability and appearance.  Numerals and markings that appear on the face of each rule are not printed superficially on the surface; instead they are meticulously engraved deep into the body of the rule and then hand-filled with pigment to create permanent graphics. Inlaid end caps are machined from solid brass and are carefully fit, flush-mounted and pinned to each end of the ruler. Finally, the entire rule is sealed and then rubbed to a beautiful satin luster. The finished rules are heirloom quality, and each will develop its own character and coloring as it ages, becoming more beautiful with the passage of time.  A wonderful family keepsake.

Our rulers make great gifts for your child, grandson, granddaughter, niece or nephew.

A truly unique baby shower gift, baptism gift, or birth acknowledgment.

 

Your child's formative years pass quickly.  The growth and personal history recorded on the ruler will become a symbol and celebration of your child, a memento made more precious by time.  Order yours today.

Customer Testimonials             

These are such a big hit each time I have given them.  What a great product.  
Mark from Salem Mass

I just got this family ruler as a welcome back gift to our newly remodeled home -- marked all three kids and parents and other fabulous friends and family. Looking forward to watching my children grow!  I would recommend this for anyone looking for that unique house warming and/or baby gift that will be treasured (and maybe fought over!) for years to come. I might need to buy one for each of my three kids now that I think of it!
Anne from New Haven, CT

If you are looking for a unique gift that will last a lifetime then theseTimeline Growth Rulers will do the trick. They are beautiful. We've now given timeline rulers as gifts a few times and they have all been very well received. Now we know exactly what to get to celebrate another niece or nephew!  
Betsy from Yarmouth, Maine

Enclosed is my payment for a timeline ruler. When I was little my father kept track of the growth of my brother and me on the door frame in our kitchen.  When we moved we were devasted that we couldn't take it with us.  It was 67 years ago and I remember it well. I hope my grand daughters like theirs half as much as I did.  
James from Sebring, Florida

My Son and Daughter in Law received their beautiful ruler yesterday and were ecstatic! Apparently they had already had the discussion of where they would measure their new little bundle as the years go by and had lamented on what they would do when they moved and then this wonderful gift showed up on the doorstep. Jason said it is just beautiful and suitable for display in any room. Thanks for helping to make me the #1 grandma!
