Found postcards in Boulevard Park, Bellingham
I found a tote bag tucked under a bench along Boulevard Park's promenade in Bellingham around 9:15 a.m. Inside were a stack of postcards—some bright travel photos, others faded with age—tied with a purple ribbon. It felt nostalgic, as if someone had poured their memories into those cards. I left the tote on the bench by the park's main entrance near the water, hoping the owner would recognize the handwriting and come back soon.
FOUND: Dolls in Bellingham, Washington
On Friday at 6:30 p.m., I found a group of dolls lined up on the sidewalk outside Village Books in the Fairhaven District. One doll wore a pink dress and carried a tiny backpack, another had a ribbon in her hair—the kind of details a child would know by heart. It tugged at me to think of a kiddo who might be missing them, so I picked them up and kept them safe in a bag in my apartment. They’re waiting for their owner to claim them through the site.
Lost Document Holders near Fairhaven, Bellingham
I was leaving the bakery near the Fairhaven Village Green yesterday at 6:15 pm when I realized my Document Holders were missing from my tote. They’re a tan leather portfolio with a few label stickers and a USB drive tucked inside, the kind I carry every day for work receipts and travel papers. Losing them threw off my whole routine, and I’m worried about sensitive documents ending up in the wrong hands. If you found a small tan portfolio in the Fairhaven area, please help me get them back. It would mean the world to me to have those papers safely in my bag again.
Lost bed sheets in Boulevard Park, Bellingham
Yesterday at around 4:45 PM, I was walking along the Boulevard Park boardwalk in Bellingham when I realized my bed sheets were missing from the tote I had with me near the water. The thought of sleeping without clean sheets has been nagging at me, and I keep hoping someone found them and will return them. I looked around the nearby picnic tables and by the waterfront, but I could not spot them. If they turn up, I would be so grateful to have them back.
lost sculptures in bellingham, wa
I woke to a chilly mist and realized the sculptures I spent months shaping were gone. After the Bellingham Arts Walk, I left them in a weatherproof crate beside our booth around 6:45 pm last Friday, near the corner of Bay Street and Cornwall Avenue in Boulevard Park. A gust knocked the crate, and it rolled toward the grass by the path and disappeared into the crowd. The sculptures are a mixed-media pair: one about 18 inches tall, a dark bronze figure with looping arms; the other a pale ceramic with blue glaze on the rim. I’m anxious, and I fear they might be lost to me until someone spots them.
Lost medication in downtown Bellingham.
I realized around 8:10 AM this morning that I must have left my medication somewhere after I grabbed coffee at Espresso Bene on Cornwall Avenue. I retraced the sidewalks toward the Whatcom Public Market and checked the benches near the waterfront, but I came up empty. The bottle is small, white with a blue cap, and I count on it daily for my routine, so losing it has thrown me off. If anyone picked it up or moved it, I hope you’ll check the area around Cornwall Ave and Holly Street and let me know through the site.
Found shoes near Bellingham Farmers Market
I found a pair of shoes outside the Bellingham Farmers Market in Depot Market Square around 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. They’re red and black running sneakers, with a scuff on the left toe and a squeaky sole that’s oddly comforting after a long day. They were tucked under a bench by Railroad Avenue close to the market entrance, looking a little faded after a busy afternoon of shoppers. I didn’t see a tag, so I kept them nearby in case the owner returns someday. I hope whoever lost them recognizes them soon.

Lost hamsters in Bellingham near Boulevard Park
Last Tuesday at about 7:20 p.m., I was walking near Boulevard Park when my two hamsters darted from their cage and vanished into the bushes. They’re tiny—one is golden tan and the other white with a black stripe—and I’m afraid they’ve tucked themselves into Whatcom Falls Park or the Fairhaven area. I’m worried and I’ve been backtracking the routes I took, calling out to them with their squeaky little noises in my mind. If you see them, please help me keep an eye out and let me know through the site.
Found two canines in Bellingham.
On Friday around 7:40 p.m., I was walking along Boulevard Park by the water when two dogs followed me, tails wagging and a friendly bark. They wore mismatched collars with no tags, and they looked a bit lost but seemed sweet, so I kept them close as cars whizzed by on the street and scanned for someone who might be missing them. I led them toward the park entrance and waited near the railing while the sun sank behind Lummi Island’s silhouette in the distance. I can imagine the worry at home, and I hope whoever owns these can see this post and recognize them soon.
LOST terrariums near Cornwall Ave, Bellingham.
I was walking back from the farmers market around 6:00 PM last Tuesday along Cornwall Avenue when I realized my terrariums were no longer in my bag. They are two small glass jars with tiny air plants, one with a handwritten label; they remind me of my grandmother's greenhouse and I keep them to feel close to her. I am hopeful someone picked them up and will return them through this site. If you see them, please help a grateful plant person get them back.
Lost travel visas in Bellingham
I was walking along Cornwall Avenue by the Fairhaven Village Green in Bellingham at 8:15 a.m. on Monday when I realized my travel visas had vanished from a thin leather folder in my backpack. The folder is thin and light brown, with a red elastic band and a sticker peeling off the corner. These documents are essential for an upcoming trip, and I’m desperate to have them back. If anyone found something like that around Fairhaven, I hope you’ll help by letting me know here.
Found toasters near Main Library, Bellingham
I found these two toasters outside the Main Library on Magnolia Street in downtown Bellingham at 4:15 PM on a gray Wednesday. One is stainless steel, the other matte black, their cords tangled as if someone hurried away. It struck me how everyday appliances carry someone’s plans—maybe a quick breakfast before work, or a family project gone awry. I hope the owner sees this and knows their way back here.
Lost travel adapters in Bellingham, WA
Last Tuesday around 3:10 PM, I was outside the Bellingham Public Library on Bay Street, sorting through a map on my phone. I stepped into a nearby café for a quick break and when I came back, my travel adapters were gone from a small zipper pouch in my backpack. They’re a compact gray set, with one unit having a blue tip and another with a removable plug. They’re essential for an upcoming conference, and I’m hoping someone who found them along the library steps or nearby on Bay Street will bring them back.
Lost holiday decorations near Boulevard Park
I lost my holiday decorations outside my apartment in Bellingham around 4:50 p.m. today, while bringing a tote bag of garlands and ornaments back inside past Boulevard Park's waterfront. The bag was red with pinecone motifs and included a string of warm-white fairy lights and a lighthouse ornament I bought during last year’s trip to Friday Harbor. These decorations carry family memories and mark the start of our winter traditions. I’m hoping they turned up nearby—the Boulevard Park shoreline, or along the pedestrian path by the marina—so I can bring the light back to our home.
