Couple Creates Pocket-Sized Tyumen Souvenirs
A couple from Tyumen has created unusual souvenirs: they transformed city landmarks into candles, soap, and home decor. This idea came to Antonina and Valentin Orlov when their relationship was just beginning. The pair first jokingly discussed that Tyumen lacks truly cool souvenirs, and then seriously decided to create them themselves.
“Everywhere has its snow globe: St. Petersburg and Moscow have theirs, but Tyumen doesn«t. That»s really strange. No one has thought of it here yet. I said we need to make it happen. And Tonya immediately said, ‘That«s what we should do. What»s there to talk about?’ Well, that«s it, we started doing it slowly,” says Valentin.
