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!

  • HIRE A PROFESSIONAL HACKER TO RECOVER YOUR STOLEN FUNDS/BYTEPHANTOM CYBER RECOVERY:I never thought I would be a victim of a romance scam—let alone one involving cryptocurrency It started innocently enough I met someone on a dating app She said all the right things We chatted every day for weeks Eventually the topic of crypto came up She said she was investing in a new coin with inside knowledge and offered to help me get in early I was cautious but she never directly asked for money Instead she guided me through the process of buying crypto and sending it to a “wallet I controlled” But once the funds left my account I couldn’t touch them again When I questioned it the excuses started Eventually she vanished I had sent over $65,000 in ETH and stablecoins I was heartbroken and furious—at her and at myself. I reported it to my local cybercrime unit but they had no clear leads On a Google thread I found someone who had gone through the same thing and recovered their funds with the help of Bytephantom Cyber Recovery I got in touch and they began tracing the transfers Eventually they found that the scammer had cashed out through a centralized exchange with weak KYC They coordinated with the exchange submitted evidence and after nearly two months they recovered about 70% of the stolen funds More than the money it felt like I got a piece of myself back I now share this to warn others: scammers can be incredibly convincing. Protect your heart—but especially protect your wallet And if you’ve already been hit recovery is possible Don’t give up Just contact Bytephantom Cyber Recovery sure they can be of help.
