Description
I lost my Holiday Decorations while helping decorate the downtown Asheville display near Pack Square Park at 7:15 PM last Tuesday. They were a jumble of handmade ornaments, strings of lights, and a faded wooden star that always topped our tree. My kids waved goodbye as they left with their coats on, and I felt a pang of frustration when the crowd swelled and the carols swelled in the air. If someone found them, I hope they’re treated with kindness, because these pieces carry our family's traditions and the memory of winters we shared in this mountain town.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
