ORIGINAL

I am not a fan of stretched ears, to be honest with you, but I really appreciate all the creativity that goes into designing a truly original pair of earrings. These examples are from Planet Art (giovannacoraggio.etsy.com).

I just love all these twisting lines that form these gorgeous gauge earrings.

  2. I have been a customer of Giovanna's store for a very long time now, (great to see you on here gio!!!) and i have to say that her work is definitley an inspiration. I do have stretched lobes, and her use of polymer clay - the textures, twists, turns, designs, colours and patterns are fun, unique, and often breath-taking, escpecially when worn. It is DEFINITLEY a interesting and QUITE addictive way to express my moods, emotions, and creativity...all through polymer clay!!! Thank you Eugena for starting this post!
    I this it's awesome that even though you are not a fan of gauging, you still see the beauty in Giovannas work!! that is so wonderful!!!
    and thanks to Giovanna, for keeping my lobes happy happy happy :)
    i wish i could i could post a picture on here but i don' know how?
    any suggestions?
    anyhow, thanks again Eugena, I think it is really cool that we are both different in how we would utilize the polymer in those photos, yet see and appreciate the same beauty and wonder from an artist's eye!!! :)
    much love and light to all....
    keep up the fantabulous artwork Giovanna!

  3. Emily,
    thank you for taking time to write such a wonderful comment. I do not think there is a way to post a picture in the comments, but you can post a picture in your own blog and then provide a link from here. Would that work?

( i hope she is up for that challenge! lol) It is amazing to see that someone has such a talent and she puts love into each and every piece - you can just tell, trust me! she is amazing and anyone with gauged ears, I highly recommend you take a look at the many pieces she has on her site! thanks for this post - clay rocks!

  6. I've been a friend of Giovanna's for several years. She actually inspired me and showed me how to stretch my ears back in 2004 :) Giovanna has always been super creative. It's so exciting to see a dear friend of mine grow in creativity and take off with her artwork. We used to have to buy gauges and now she designs and makes gauges for us to wear. And her designs are far more unique than any pair we ever bought!
