A phone is one of the easiest ways to access your favorite music using any of several streaming options. While pairing your phone to a Bluetooth speaker is a viable option, it does take a few minutes of setup every time, not to mention the fact that you need to make sure your speaker has been charged. With this Groovi Monster sound amplified, you can play your music straight from your phone and enhance the output from your phone’s tiny speakers. The outstretched arms (or ears?) look great and provide a way to control the direction of the sound. This is a great amplified to have around the house for those spontaneous dance parties.
The idea of taking care of a plant is easier said than done. Who knew that not forgetting to water your house plants can be so difficult? This self-watering planter is made of two parts: a perforated inner pot for the plant and an outer plant that acts as a water reservoir.

The outer pot has a spout that you can use to check if the reservoir needs additional water. This should take about a week, so you’re not completely off the hook.

You wrap the cord of the earbuds around a central column, secure the earbuds in a dedicated pocket, and enclose everything in a hinged outer sleeve. The result is a secure, compact, and great-looking earbuds holder that is unlike any we’ve seen before.

Carabiners can be an incredibly useful and versatile tool for lifting objects or for attaching things. You can have one or two permanently attached to your backpack so you can attach small things such as an umbrella or another smaller bag. They can also be used if you’d like to carry all your groceries in one go. Just keep in mind that there is no way that a 3D printer carabiner can be used for any climbing activity – we wouldn’t even consider it. Even if you don’t end up using it, having a carabiner hanging from your backpack kind of looks cool.
