BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

This invention takes two existing commercially available products and combines them for a specific purpose or utility function. The main impetus for Airbuns is to provide a convenient place for Earbuds (or any wireless apparatus that is inserted into the ear for wireless hearing of cell phone audible sounds) to store for easy access. Also, the main reason is to not to look obvious when using Earbuds that are connected through a wireless headset, or in a hard to find storage box that users must quickly find in order to answer their phone. Many users never like to carry a case or wear a visible headset around their neck that contains obvious Earbuds. Out of need to have a discreet way to wear Earbuds, Stephanie invented airbuns, which makes the Earbuds look discreet while looking fashionable, Airbuns will come in all styles, designs and colors. The Earbud is connected to a hair scrunchy by either a magnet, snap, velcro or glue. The Earbuds will be attached in a discreet manner to the hair scrunchy. The Earbuds will be incorporated into the design of the hair scrunchy.

Stephanie Ann Green is a full-time working mother of 3 kids with an MBA, Her house is comprised of a family of five and her kids are always losing their wireless Earbuds. Stephanie noticed that existing accessories for Earbuds were lacking and wanted something more discrete and more fashionable. Hence the need for the invention of airbuns. The airbuns utility is a holding or storage facility, which is the hair scrunchy, for the Earbuds to be connected to in order to access them quickly and efficiently as well as discretely while being fashionable.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

There is no other invention like this one the market. The process is simple with existing materials on the market. All materials are on the market currently so it's a matter of assembling existing materials that are commercially available. This invention requires the use of Earbuds and a hair scrunchy and an adherence material such as magnets, snaps, velcro or glue. The adherence material is installed on the Earbuds and the same adherence material is placed on the hair scrunchy and then the two are joined together in order to make a convenient and discreet storage space for the Earbuds. Essentially the two items are adhered together temporarily until the user needs the Earbuds, then he/she pulls the Earbuds off the hair scrunchy and places them into their ears and starts using them. When the user is finished, he/she adheres the Earbuds back onto the hair scrunchy. The Earhuds will be designed neatly into the hair scrunchy to try and conceal it as much as possible or make it blend in with the design.
