How tall am i?


Vintage craftbook 1978

Whenever there are photos of young kids in vintage books, i always think of what their current age would be and how they will look now, what they are doing and if they themselves still have a copy of that book somewhere in their bookcase. Is that weird? That my thoughts go there?

If i would be better at woodworking and if i had a work space that could handle heavy working like that, i would definitely make on of these kids body length measuring things. I love the design and the pretty flowers and ladybug painted on it. For my US friends: don't be confused, those measurements are obviously marked in centimeters.

Wow I remember those clothes. I think it is cool that you think about where they are now, I do that too.

Adorable image from days past, makes me think of myself as a child and where did all those cute clothes go? :)

I really like the wall mounted growth measure. I could see that in someones house today, fits with that modern/contemporary style.
