The heroine of the new story in the "Young Talents" section is 17-year-old Aelina Ashimbekova, who lives in the village of Kara-Suu in the Talas region. She is passionate about creating unique bags, using beads and pearls in her work.

Aelina is a student at the Amanbek Karypkulov Secondary School and has dreamed of becoming a designer since childhood. Her love for handicrafts began at an early age when she enjoyed drawing and sculpting with plasticine, creating various animals and cartoon characters.

"In 2022-2023, I came across the works of girls who wove bags from beads and pearls, and I was impressed by their talent. This inspired me to try my hand at this craft," she shares.

Since 2025, Aelina has started selling her knitted bags online, confident that this activity can be beneficial. Each of her bags is unique, and prices vary depending on the size, materials used, and the time spent on creation. For example, small bags cost between 1000 to 1500 soms, while large ones range from 1800 to 3000 soms. "It takes between 6 to 17 hours to make one bag," she explains.

In the future, Aelina plans to become an interior designer to create beauty and uplift people's spirits. She aims to showcase her skills and benefit a wide audience.

"My parents and grandmother provide me with tremendous support in achieving my goals. They raised me and taught me to manage my time wisely. I am very grateful to them," she added.
