People Still Read BOOKS?!!

Image
Believe it or not, and I know we are in the 21st century, but there are a LOT of people who still read books! Yes, those hardback books with pages made out of paper still exist, and a lot of people prefer them to going on to Kindle and downloading a book on to a mobile or a tablet. What’s more, many of us who were around in the last century, and that is actually the majority of the population at present, have books that we bought before anyone had ever heard of the internet because it hadn’t been invented, and neither had Kindle. On top of that, many families have books that have been handed down by their parents and grandparents, and a lot of them are classics that we wouldn’t dream of throwing out just because somebody by the name of Jeff Bezos happens to be the richest man in the world! Good luck to him! But we want to keep our books. However, we do have to admit that Mr Bezos makes life a bit easier when you can download a whole library on to somethi...

Clocks Are an Essential Part of Our Lives

Image
What would we do without clocks? Throughout our waking hours we need to know what the time is. We need to know if it’s time to leave the house to get the train to work. We need to know if its coffee break time, lunch time, time to leave the office, time to put the dinner on, time to go to the football match, and even time to go to bed. OK, many of us have a watch, although more people today rely on their mobiles to tell the time. But when you have a clock, all you need to do is to look at it on the wall and it tells you the time. You don’t have to get your phone out of your pocket or handbag and switch it on – just look at the clock on the wall. That is why there is a plethora of modern clocks that you can buy. They still do the same thing that Victorian ones did, but they just look as though they were made in the 21st century. Having said that, there are modern clocks that are made using Roman numerals which gives us a hint of times gone past, but there are...

Multi Photo Frames Are The 21st Century Way To Keep Your Special Photos

Image
In days gone by, a few photographs of the family were treasured by many people. Going back 100 years, yes, we had cameras, but they were very limited in their abilities. So the black and white photo of your great grandad and grandma on their wedding day may still be a treasured item. Heck, only 30 years ago, while we had cameras with some great features, we still had to use rolls of film. We had to wrap them carefully and either take them to Boots to be developed, or, as many people did, send them off to another developer somewhere in the country who, we were promised, would do a far better job! But now what? Well, in keeping with the modern-day trend, the answer is to mount those photos in one of the multi photo frames we offer at Contemporary Heaven. These are great because they can hold as many as nine photos. So you can have a series of photos from “that” party, your holiday, your new born baby, the dog fooling about in the garden, the cat refusing to come d...

Need A Flipping Coat Hook? You Need Umbra!

Image
There are certain things that we all need in our lives that are pretty mundane. One of those is a kettle. We ALL, without exception, need a kettle in the kitchen, if only to boil the water for the morning coffee, or tea if that is your preference. OK, perhaps the late, lamented, Peter Cook, of the Peter Cook and Dudley Moore duo, would have preferred a large shot of vodka, but for most of us it’s coffee or tea. Thinking about it, he probably did manage without a kettle. There are several other mundane things too, like somewhere in the hall to hang your coat as you come into the house. And somewhere to put the umbrella when it has been pouring with rain and you don’t want water all over the floor, so you need an umbrella stand as well. Coat hooks and umbrella stands can be a real nuisance because they can get in the way and they usually don’t look very pretty either, which is not the way you want to appear to your guests when you invite them round for dinner and the hall is th...
