The Big Move

Posted by R. Nichols on

I think it can be universally agreed upon the moving leaves much to be desired in terms of fun.  

Arriving in Florida on Sunday, March 27th, I knew I was in for it.  Though I spend most of my time in LA designing and plotting the future of R. Nichols, my presence is requested from time to time at our home office in Florida - especially when heavy lifting is in demand.  Upon entering our shop at 3131 Corrine Drive I was instantly overwhelmed.  But with my trusty army by my side (Anda, Jana, Hannah and Nancy) - and having seen my share of television shows about hoarders, I knew that the best thing to do was just begin.

Two days later we were left with an empty shell.



3131 Corrine - my first baby


Our destination was another empty shell (4 times larger) just across the street and down a bit. 

 Prior to my arrival in Florida, the R. Nichols team has just completed the painstaking task of painting the concrete floor with a difficult and complicated shiny black paint which apparently takes about seven years to dry.  A proclamation was posted stating that one could only wear socks inside (it was militantly enforced).  It's quite possible that half of my waking hours over the next week were spent crouched over and standing alternately on one foot while putting on and taking off shoes and socks.  



Our new empty shell - 2910 Corrine - TAKE OFF YOUR SHOES!!!!


With all of the lugging and sweating behind us - it was time for creation (my favorite thing in the world).  

Each morning I would wake up at 6 am, walk down to the Bluebird Bake Shop for caffeine and sugar, and spend the next 16 hours building our new world .   Seven very busy days later - The NEW R. Nichols Shop was open for business.  And I must say, it's pretty gorgeous.


The installation of our awning was an exciting moment!  


Those greeting card shelves were quite a challenge - I sure did learn a lot about concrete nails.


Perfection and precision - two of my favorite things.


You'll always find a selection of framed original art at the shop - just peek through the cherry blossoms.


Our mouse hole is getting good use!


Every mother's worst nightmare - a birdbath full of smarties.



Our very first customer (with a charlie horse - just kidding - she was very graceful).


So if you are ever in the Orlando area I hope you will take the time to come and visit us at 2910 Corrine - but be prepared to take off your shoes.

  • My life was turned upside down by a deceit that threatened my financial future. My name is Juan Santiago, and like many others, I was lured into the world of cryptocurrency with promises of wealth and a new digital dawn. But what seemed like an opportunity quickly morphed into a nightmare when I invested a significant portion of my savings into what I believed was a legitimate Bitcoin platform. One evening, after the market had closed, I checked my account only to find it barren, my Bitcoin vanished into the digital void. Panic set in; my heart raced as I frantically tried to log in, only to be met with silence from the platform’s support. The realization hit me like a cold wave – I had been scammed. The loss was not just financial; it was a blow to my trust, my confidence in the future, and my dreams of securing a comfortable life for my family.

    Desperation led me to scour the internet for solutions, for any glimmer of hope that might bring back what was rightfully mine. That’s when I stumbled upon Alpha Spy Nest, a name whispered in forums with a reverence that suggested more than just a company – a beacon for those lost in the digital dark. With a mixture of skepticism and hope, I reached out to Alpha Spy Nest. From the very first email, their response was not just professional but empathetic, understanding the profound sense of betrayal and loss I felt. They asked for details about my transactions, the platform, and my interactions with the scammers, ensuring every piece of information was treated with utmost confidentiality.

    The process was meticulous. Alpha Spy Nest’s team, armed with advanced blockchain analytics, began tracing the transactions. They explained how they would map out each movement of my stolen Bitcoin, following the digital breadcrumbs through the labyrinthine world of cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets. It was a journey into the underbelly of the internet, one that required patience and precision. Alpha Spy Nest was like a lifeline. They kept me informed, not just on the progress but on the complexities of blockchain forensics. They had traced my Bitcoin to several addresses, finally identifying where my funds were being held or moved. They had managed to locate a significant portion of my funds. With their expertise, Alpha Spy Nest worked with legal teams and several exchanges, leveraging their network to initiate a recovery process.

  • It all started when I made an investment in Bitcoin. I had heard so much about the incredible potential of cryptocurrencies, and after doing a little research, I decided to take the plunge. My investment of $72,000 was a significant part of my savings, and I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. At first, things went smoothly; the market was bullish, and my portfolio grew steadily. But then, disaster struck. One evening, after logging into my account to check the status of my investment, I discovered that all my funds had vanished. My heart sank as I realized my account had been hacked. I immediately tried to contact the platform’s customer support, but my emails went unanswered, and phone calls were never returned. Panic set in as I realized that the $72,000 I had worked so hard to save was now gone, and there seemed to be no way to retrieve it. In desperation, I started scouring the internet for solutions. That’s when I stumbled across Alpha Spy Nest, a cybersecurity and digital asset recovery firm. Their website promised to help people recover stolen or lost cryptocurrency through their advanced tracking and investigative technologies. Skeptical but hopeful, I reached out to them, detailing the situation and the amount I had lost.Within hours, I received a response from one of their specialists. He asked for a few details—my wallet address, the platform I had used, and any relevant transaction history. At first, I was hesitant to share so much personal information, but they assured me that Alpha Spy Nest had a proven track record of helping individuals recover lost assets securely. Their team worked with law enforcement agencies and had connections with blockchain forensic experts who could trace cryptocurrency transactions. The process was thorough but reassuring. Alpha Spy Nest’s team began by analyzing my wallet and tracing the flow of my funds. They quickly identified a suspicious address that had received the majority of my stolen Bitcoin. From there, they cross-referenced various blockchain records to track the funds’ movement through multiple wallets and exchanges. It was a painstaking process, but their team was relentless.A few weeks later, I received an update: they had successfully located the Bitcoin and identified the individuals behind the theft. Not only had they recovered my $72,000 investment, but they had also managed to freeze the criminals’ accounts, preventing them from liquidating or transferring the funds further.

  • I had always been cautious about where I put my money, but the allure of high returns in the crypto world was something I couldn’t ignore. That’s how I found myself investing $93,000 into what I thought was a legitimate Bitcoin investment platform. The initial returns were impressive, and I was hooked, seeing my investment grow day by day on the platform’s dashboard. But when I tried to withdraw my earnings, the site suddenly became unresponsive, emails went unanswered, and my funds seemed to vanish into thin air. Desperation set in as I realized I’d fallen victim to a scam. I spent sleepless nights researching recovery options, my trust in digital finance shattered. That’s when I stumbled upon a forum where others shared similar stories, and one name kept coming up: Alpha Spy Nest. Skeptical but clinging to hope, I reached out.

    From our first interaction, the team at Alpha Spy Nest displayed a level of professionalism and empathy I hadn’t expected. They listened to my story, asking detailed questions about how I’d interacted with the scam site, transaction details, and any communication I’d had. Their approach was meticulous; they explained how they would trace the blockchain transactions, looking for patterns and anomalies that could lead back to where my crypto was held. The process wasn’t quick, but the regular updates from Alpha Spy Nest kept me in the loop. They used advanced blockchain analytics to trace my $93,000 through various addresses, which had been cleverly disguised by the scammers. Weeks passed, and then one day, I received a call – they had managed to locate a significant portion of my funds.

    Alpha Spy Nest had traced the transactions to a few exchanges where the scammers had attempted to cash out or move the funds. With their expertise in dealing with such platforms, they coordinated with legal teams and the exchanges themselves to initiate a recovery process. It wasn’t all of it, but I was able to recover 85% of my initial investment, which was far more than I had dared to hope for.The relief was overwhelming, but what stood out was the education they provided. Alpha Spy Nest didn’t just help recover my funds; they equipped me with knowledge on how to secure my digital assets better. They recommended stronger wallet security measures, the importance of due diligence in investments, and how to spot red flags with platforms too good to be true.In the end, what could have been a devastating financial blow turned into a lesson in resilience and cybersecurity.
