If you’re bored of the look of the plain white iPod headphones but don’t feel like buying new ones, you can give them a new look without much trouble.

I’d never heard about the Gribbits, but I think the idea is great. These little headphone charms come in many shapes and colors and snap on the headphones to give them a new look. My favorites are the ladybugs in the picture, but there are various models available.

Gribbits are also available for pencils and (I wasn’t expecting this) stethoscopes. But it makes perfect sense: going to the doctor’s is never a pleasant experience, but a nice man in a white suit with smiley faces on his weird medical device can’t be all bad, right?

How much under $29.99?
A lot: most between $5.99 and $9.99 on Gribbits.com.
