The special present for the special occasion


Holiday months are when most weddings, house warmings and parties happen. It is also when you are the most likely to look for that special present for that special occasion. At Contemporary Heaven you will find an astonishing variety of small and big home accessories, gifts and gadgets. You can even personalise them with a name, date, word or logo. From photo frames to clocks, you can be certain to find something appropriate for the occasion.

Here are some tips for ensuring that your present will please and not become a yet another addition to the collection of unwanted gifts.

Find out what their hobbies and interests are and buy something related. If they love fishing don’t just get them a fishing rod, buy them
Koziol Rollmops Tube Squeezers or a Whishbone Soap Dish. It will be more fun and definitely much cheaper!

Familiarise yourself with their surroundings, what colour their walls are, what style they favour, are they modern or retro fans? Get something that will go with what they already have at home.

Make it unique by choosing something that nobody else is likely to offer. Whether it is a personalised desk mat for the office or a watering can for the garden, it is the thought that counts. Even an old idea can be original if you make it personal. If you are going to a wedding and one of the newlyweds travels a lot, personalise a time zone clock with their names rather than towns or countries and they will know when to or not to call the other half for example, especially if they find themselves separated in a country with a lot of time difference.

I recently went to a wedding where this was the case and, in addition to the time zone clock, I gifted them with a matching photo frame engraved with their names and the date of the wedding. They really liked the personal touch. I struggled with what colour/style to choose so asking about their preferences or getting to know them a bit better has deficiently helped. Good luck with choosing your perfect present for that special occasion.
