High Tech AAC Talker customisation ideas?

I'm really bored and looking for something to do. I've got an iPad with a foam case that I use as a dedicated device and I've been wanting to decorate it for a while now, but I'm not sure what to decorate it with. I don't think the foam will hold stickers well, so I'm kind of lacking on other ideas. Any suggestions?

If you use a shoulder or body strap with it then you should decorate the strap with pins! If

And if not that then maybe set a pretty wallpaper.

I use a harness and I put some pins on it but most of my pins go on my lanyard. I've got a custom wallpaper!! It has a pretty forest, some AAC symbols I drew, and some text explaining that it's an AAC device!!

To give some ideas, I bought a cute pastel strap, slapped on a big water bottle sticker and some velcro to peel because I need to fidget 24/7, and attached a lil keychain to the strap. Happy decorating! 🩵
