Blue hand-painted ceramic wall plate, 8x8 inches
I lost my blue hand-painted ceramic wall plate yesterday around 3pm near the Purdue Memorial Union on the West Lafayette campus. It's an 8x8 inch wall plate with an abstract cobalt-blue wave motif, finished in a glossy glaze. The back has a crescent moon stamp from the local artist 'Lumen Ceramics' and a tiny circular mark; there's a small chip on the bottom edge. It was a gift from my grandmother and it really meant a lot to me—sentimental keepsake. If anyone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back. Hit me up here and we can arrange a pickup near campus or in Lafayette.
Keyring with house and car keys, red heart charm
I lost my keyring yesterday around 3pm outside the Purdue Memorial Union on the West Lafayette campus. It's a black metal ring with three keys: a brass house key, a silver car key, and a small spare with a green plastic cover. A red silicone heart charm and a tiny bottle opener are clipped on too. One key has a slight bend and a tiny dent from a drop, plus a faint scuff on the black coating—easy to spot. This ring is really important to me because the house key opens my grandmother's apartment, so I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Compact blue JBL Clip 3 speaker
I’m posting because I lost my JBL Clip 3 Bluetooth speaker yesterday around 3pm. It’s blue fabric with a black rubber bumper, palm-sized, and it has a tiny carabiner clip for my bag. I last saw it outside the Purdue Memorial Union on State Street in West Lafayette, right near the coffee carts by the entrance. The fabric is a bit frayed at the top and there’s a small scratch on the grille. It was a gift from my sister and I use it for late-night study sessions, so I’d really appreciate getting it back.
Gray nylon pouch with orange zipper pull
I lost my gray nylon pouch with an orange zipper pull yesterday around 3pm. It was outside the Starbucks on State Street near the Purdue Memorial Union in West Lafayette, a small 6x4 inch thing with a coffee stain on the back. Inside there's a USB-C cable and a tiny notepad, plus a faint front logo that's barely visible—it's in the Other Miscellaneous Items category. It has sentimental value and I really need it back.
Cream duvet cover with blue floral corner embroidery
I found a cream queen-size duvet cover this morning around 9:15am in the parking lot behind Purdue Memorial Union on State Street, West Lafayette. It's soft cotton and in great shape, with a delicate blue floral embroidery in the top-right corner and a sturdy zipper along the bottom edge. There are two matching pillow shams with blue piping included. Inside the corner, there's a small care tag with the initials 'P.P.' stitched on it and a tiny pull thread near the zipper. If this belongs to someone, I’d be happy to return it—message me here and we’ll arrange a pickup.

I found a colorful ukulele near the entrance of a coffee shop in downtown Lafayette a few days ago. It has some distinct stickers on the body and comes with a soft case. I think it may belong to a student because there was a music note keychain attached to the zipper of the case. I would love to return it to its owner!
