Genius woman turns her AirPods into earrings so they won't get lost
Apple AirPods may be more high-tech than old school wired headphones, but they're wayeasier to misplace.
Since they're each about an inch and a half in length and not tethered to anything, losing AirPods is common. And even if you've managed to keep track of both wireless headphones since buying them, you're probably plagued by the anxiety of losing one (or both) on occasion.
Well take a breath, AirPod owners, because Gabrielle Reilly — a 22-year-old paralegal from Virginia — came up with a way to keep track of AirPods. She turned them into earrings, or as she calls them, Airings.

Reilly posted a video of herself modeling the Airings to Twitter, and honestly? They're both fashionable and extremely functional.
The innovative music lover told BuzzFeed News she was originally inspired to turn the wireless earbuds into earrings because she was afraid of losing them. But she also wanted to ensure her cat wouldn't chew them up.
"I absolutely refuse to lose them," Reilly told BuzzFeed. "My cat ate through two pairs of Beats bluetooth earphones, and all my other earphones. So I got the AirPods because there was no wire for her to chew but I still needed something to connect them."
AirPod earrings, aka Airings.Credit: deadanimemom.comReilly also created a chain necklace to connect the AirPods and decided to start selling the detachable earrings so other AirPod owners could benefit. She created a website where people can order hoop, fish hook, or clip on earrings in silver or gold. And customers can even choose their desired earring length.
The Airings currently cost $20.00 per pair, and Reilly also offers additional customization, such as charms, chains, and more.
Perhaps Apple will enlist Reilly's help if it ever decides to venture into the jewelry business.
Mashable reached out to Reilly for comment.
