The 'Mimi Pet Earplugs' Look Like a Tiny Canine is Poking Out of Your Ear

— February 23, 2016 — Art & Design
Japanese designer Mao Yamamoto created these dog-shaped earplugs called 'Mimi Pet Earplugs.' Each set of plugs comes in the shape of a tiny Dachshund dog. One earplug is shaped like the head of the dog and the other earplug is shaped like the tail-end.

Each pair of Mimi Pet Earplugs is packaged in a clear tube the allows for the head to poke out one end and the tail to poke out the other. This is essentially a preview for how the earplugs look while sitting in the wearer's ear.

These humorously designed plugs block out noise while adding a quirky twist to an everyday item. Additionally, the earplugs are available in a variety of colors such as white, blue and yellow to suit numerous consumer preferences.
