oki, stupid ball ball which i've repainted with acrylic (mix of pink and blue), then coated it with some translucent silver spray, and finally a shiny coat (forgot what it is called but it makes things shiny... duh). by the way spray paint FAILS on rubbery surface. it broke into pieces when i squeezed the ball. before the shiny coating, it looks black:





but after that, it looks bluish!





and with the straps. still can't figure out how to hook the straps...




and yes after washing, spraying and painting, the lighted thing inside still works. :D
