Swooping and swirling up the chart, the vintage airplanes are a fun addition for your son's bedroom.
The wooden growth chart begins as unfinished pieces, each laser cut here in Missouri. The background of the chart is then painted a medium slate gray and given navy blue hash marks for every half an inch.
Next, the airplanes themselves are given their overall colors of navy, tomato red, and light blue. I then add in their wing colors and accents in white, light blue, dark gray, and dark yellow.
The puffy clouds are a white and pale gray gingham, outlined in dark gray, and then the edges stitched with navy blue.
Lastly, I paint the stitched flight paths for each airplane in white.
Personalization is free. Chart markings can be done in centimeters for a small additional fee.
My vintage airplane growth chart has flown across the United States and even into Canada and overseas to the United Kingdom.
To order your own custom handpainted growth chart, see the vintage airplane style in my Etsy shop or contact me for a new style to coordinate with your child's bedroom decor.
Other growth chart designs are on my website and in my Etsy shop.
*Note that the airplanes are also available as quilt clips, wooden wall letters, name signs, curtain holdbacks, wall plaques, peg racks, and more.
Lastly, I hung the growth chart by dark brown ribbon. For the picture, the nail cover is orange to match the beaks on the birds, but you can choose any color you wish!
