8x10 hand-painted ceramic wall plaque with gold accents
I lost my 8x10 hand-painted ceramic wall plaque, an art & decorative item, yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central FL. It's a soft teal and ivory piece with a subtle sunset orange accent, framed in a light oak frame. I last had it hanging in the living room, and I must've forgotten it when I was grabbing towels. The plaque has a small crack along the bottom edge and a tiny brass hanging hook on the back, plus a faint signature 'M. Chen' in the corner. This gift from my grandmother means a lot to me, and I’d really appreciate getting it back.
Blue dragon plush with yellow star patch
I lost my daughter's blue dragon plush toy yesterday around 3:15 pm near the Depot Park playground off Main Street in Gainesville. It's about 12 inches tall, made of soft blue velour with a white belly and bright orange wings. There’s a bright yellow star patch sewn on the left wing, and the inside tag reads 'Niko' in silver cursive. It’s a well-loved little thing—the fur has a bit of pilling and the stitching along the tail is slightly worn. This toy meant a lot to my kid, so I’m really hoping someone picked it up and can reunite us.
Lost black Giro bike helmet with neon strap
I lost my black Giro bike helmet with a neon strap yesterday around 3pm near the UF campus bookstore on University Ave in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It's a medium-sized helmet, matte black shell with a bright lime-green chin strap and a small scratch on the left side from a fall last week, plus a tiny lightning-bolt sticker on the back. I bike to classes every day and this helmet is my daily safety gear while riding around the Archer Road bike lanes and campus streets. It also has sentimental value—it's a gift from my mom when I started commuting to campus, so losing it has me really worried about safety. If someone found it, please drop it off at the campus Lost & Found near the Reitz Union in Gainesville; I'd really appreciate getting it back.
Framed abstract painting—blue tones, 18x24 inches
I lost my framed abstract painting yesterday around 3pm near the CVS on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It's an 18x24 inch piece in a matte black metal frame, with bold blue, teal, and gold swirls on white canvas. The back has a tiny label with the artist's name, 'Mira Alvarez, 2022', and there's a small dent in the bottom left corner of the frame. There's also a faint coffee ring along the lower edge from a coffee break I grabbed afterward. It holds sentimental value—my sister gifted it to me when I moved here—and I really need to get it back.
Blue Trek mountain bike found near UF campus
I found a blue Trek mountain bike this afternoon around 4:15pm in the parking lot behind the Reitz Union on Museum Road, Gainesville. It’s a medium frame with Shimano gears, a bright orange water bottle strapped to the frame, and a Go Gators sticker on the seat tube. There’s a small dent in the front fork and a scuff on the left crank, but otherwise it looks rideable. If this sounds like yours, point out a distinguishing feature and we can meet up near the UF Bookstore or the Reitz Union circle to swap.
Lost blue ceramic giraffe figurine last seen at a local flea market in North Central Florida.
I realized I lost my blue ceramic giraffe figurine while visiting a local flea market in North Central FL last Saturday. It was a special gift from my grandmother, which makes it even more important to me. I might have left it on a table while browsing through other items, so I'm hoping someone might have seen it or picked it up.

I lost my red mountain bike while I was out biking on SR 19 near the Paynes Prairie State Park. I stopped to take a photo of the view, and when I turned around, I realized it was gone. It has a unique scratch on the frame and the seat has a gel cover. I really hope someone picked it up and can return it to me.
