The R. Nichols Nook at Soolip

Posted by R. Nichols on

  I first met Wanda Wen just over 10 years ago. She's one of those people that just have a knack for creating beauty.  Back in those days I would haul my samples around in a backpack and travel the country knocking on doors and seeing who I could find to carry my line of cards.  When I first traveled  to Los Angeles I discovered Soolip Paperie, Wanda's magnificent store on Melrose.  She successfully carried R. Nichols for years - but over time we'd lost touch.

So here we are just over 10 years later.  Upon moving to LA this past June, I reconnected with Wanda.  She has a beautiful new book  called "The Art of Gift Wrapping".  As we were catching up she mentioned that she had this little extra space at Soolip - and asked me if I would  like to set up a mini R. Nichols shop.  A little tiny room/nook at the very back that was all mine - well - I was all over it.   So I showed up with my paintbrush and fixtures and went to work creating my little world.

                               The R. Nichols Nook at Soolip

The end result is The R. Nichols Nook at Soolip.  It's an adorable tiny little shop within a shop where you can find nearly the entire R. Nichols collection (including original art pieces as we get closer to the holidays).   It is also quite possible that you will find me hanging around  too.  I am often there working on new designs (especially on Saturdays), meeting shoppers (and occasionally celebrities), chit-chatting - it's become my retail home away from home.  

                                              Wanda and her beautiful empire

                         Wanda's new book

So, If you are in LA, I hope you'll come visit Soolip (8646 Melrose - right across from the Pacific Design Center / open 7 days a week).  It would be wonderful to meet you.   If you are a "facebook person" please become a fan of R. Nichols and you'll always  know what I'm up to and just where I might be (whether it's The R. Nichols Nook at Soolip or The R. Nichols Shop in Orlando.....)!

Hope to see you soon!

  • HOW I SUCCESSFULLY RECOVERED MY 7 YEARS OLD LOST CRYPTO WALLET-FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER
    I’m Thomas, and I was eagerly preparing for an exciting summer trip to Asia and needed an e-visa in a hurry. In my rush, I stumbled upon what seemed to be a legitimate e-visa service online. I was captivated by the polished design of the website which featured glowing testimonials and a seamless payment process. Without a second thought, I transferred $32,500 in USDT convinced that I was securing a fast-track visa. Days went by and my excitement quickly turned to anxiety as I received no confirmation of my application. When I attempted to contact the service, I was met with silence. Their website had vanished and my emails bounced back. A sinking feeling of dread washed over me I had been scammed. Desperate to recover my funds, I scoured the internet for solutions and came across FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER, a cybersecurity firm specializing in crypto fraud cases. I felt a flicker of hope and decided to reach out to them. Their team responded quickly reassuring me that they had successfully handled similar cases before. They asked for transaction details, wallet addresses and any communication I had with the scammers. With their expertise in advanced blockchain forensics, they began tracing the movement of my USDT across various wallets. Within 72 hours, FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER identified the scammer’s exchange account. They worked diligently with the platform to freeze the funds providing solid evidence of the fraudulent transaction. Thanks to their thorough investigation and expertise, the exchange agreed to reverse the transfer. A week later, I was overjoyed to see my $32,500 back in my wallet. It felt surreal FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER had transformed my nightmare into a story of relief and recovery. I am immensely grateful to FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER for their swift action and professionalism. They not only helped me recover my hard-earned money but also offered invaluable advice on how to avoid future scams. They stressed the importance of verifying e-visa services through official government portals and being wary of offers that seem too good to be true
