Lost holiday decorations near Millennium Park, Chicago

Lost on Friday at 6:30 PM near Millennium Park, by the Cloud Gate sculpture, my holiday decorations disappeared from my apartment. They were in a sturdy red box labeled 'Holiday,' with a string of warm-white lights and a small collection of family ornaments, including a hand-painted glass star. I set them out for a quick post-holiday cleanup and somehow they vanished in the crowds. Those decorations mean a lot to me — they were part of our family traditions started by my grandmother, and they’re not easily replaced. I’m hoping a kind-hearted finder still has them and will return them.
