  • Meet The Designer - Fran Pearlman

    Meet Fran Pearlman. Fran has been designing, amongst her many other accomplishments, unique and very upscale Mazel Tov wedding keepsakes for over 20 years. “For years, a light bulb was put into a napkin for the groom to break, or a wine glass in a napkin, but I thought it needed something of substance, that could also be a keepsake” Fran explained.

    Here at onepassionplace.com we are delighted to highlight The Mazel Tov Wedding Pillow keepsake which can also be used as a ring pillow. Available in a wide range of colors to suit your wedding color palette, Fran actually hand paints each keepsake! Each Mazel Tov keepsake is personalized with the names of the bride and groom, the wedding date, and includes a sealed wine glass to be broken by the groom at the conclusion of the wedding ceremony. Available in white or Ivory satin, this custom made pillow measures 7” x 10” (plus a 3” lace border which is optional). Decorative trims enhance the “Mazel Tov” pillow, and as mentioned earlier, colors can be ordered to match the wedding or can be made in the traditional silver, white and blue metallic jacquard binding. Perfect for an engagement or bridal shower gift! Allow up to 4 weeks for delivery.

  • Friendships and New Ideas

    About 35-36 years ago, when I was just a kid we moved to a Chicago suburb. There I was blest to have met what has become a life long friend. As we grew our friendship grew as well. In a blink of an eye Laura was off to college and I moved out of my family home and was on my own. Laura and I would lose touch for periods of time but would always find our way back to each other. I was there for her during some very rough spots in her life and she has always been there for me. We have shared so many things and now we will both be contributing to a new web site concept that we are both thrilled about. It has been in the works for quite sometime and will be launched in early 2009 if not before. So keep checking the gift gab for more information about the launch. Our other new sites, that the Kemper Lake Group is developing , are still under construction and are set to launch in the spring.
