Dryer notification idea

I'm looking for a small light up button or something I can use so my wife can see when the dryer is done. I'm going to use a vibration sensor. And was thinking of a small led sign but looking for other ideas also

Vibration sensors were not working for me as I got lot of false alarms. Like a lot. Final thing which works is Ikea smart outlet behind washing machine and some blueprint from HA forums. It measures energy and sends notifications to phones and also says it via Nest speaker.
