Lost holiday decorations in Oneonta

I was decorating for a neighborhood Christmas gathering when I realized my holiday decorations were gone. I had just unplugged the strand of multicolored bulbs and set the pine garland on the mantel, plus a snowy white star topper that lights up the room. On Tuesday at 7:45 PM, I stepped outside for a minute to grab a hot cocoa from a neighbor, and when I came back the box was empty and the tree looked bare. The missing items include a red-and-gold tinsel garland, a vintage snow globe, and that star topper, all left on the coffee table near the Oneonta Theatre on Main Street. I am anxious and hopeful, because these decorations meant a lot to my small-town Christmas display, and I’d love to have them back before the community caroling event on Saturday.
