Fashionista soccer mom's now have the chicest bag to carry their minivan keys in. The soccer ball handbag designed by the company Abteil (translated from German means 'compartment') is made from previously enjoyed soccer balls...turned inside out.
Can you just imagine if they get their hands on some of the previously played Euro 2008 balls and morph them into handbags? They could charge molto Euros and guaranteed, they would have a waiting list! Do you think NFL footballs or NBA basketballs could be next?
