DIY Height Ruler/Growth Chart and Pencil Level

I remember standing against the doorjamb as a kid while my mom measured my height, and I remember looking at all the marks on that doorway from the time I could stand and being amazed at how small I had been. I have been wanting to make a height ruler or growth chart for my kids, but instead of a doorway, I wanted something that I could move when needed.

This is a very simple project that anyone can do in an evening. I spent way too much time making a pencil level before I thought to look online and realized I could have bought on Amazon for about the same amount I paid in broken pencils. But it was fun, and now our growth chart has a one-of-a-kind pencil.
