The Idea

To create the hook, take the 2" wire and create a loop at one end. Wrap the wire around a cylindrical object, something like a permanent marker for the round bend. 

With a gold wire, create simple loop and continue rolling over the wire. Use flat nose pliers to hold wire parallel while rolling wire. Make 2-3 loops, insert spacer bead, gold bead and close with a wire wrapped loop. Center wire hoop on either side of the bead. Attach jump ring to wired bead and decorative wire link. Attach another jump ring to the link and earring hook. Create matching earring.
