They are all jewelry findings. Earring findings all allow you to work with your own imagination. There are many types of earring findings, such as Hook Earwires, Earnuts, Earstuds and Hoop earring.
Hoop earrings are stiff, round hoops that you can use in a few ways. Either thread beads straight onto the hoop for decorated hoop earrings, or hang chains of beads from them to create a more glitzy look. Once you have the hoop the way you want it, you use the pliers (jewelry supplies) to squash the metal permanently into place. They usually come with a loop on top to connect the earring hook or post – but you can also use a jump-ring to connect if they don’t have one.
Earring hooks can be slightly different shapes, but all have the loop which threads through the ear on one end, and the loop that connects to the jewelry on the other. Shepherd’s hooks are a common variety of earring hooks that get their name from having the shape of staff used by a shepherd to herd sheep.
Head pins and eye pins are an important part of making dangles. These pins are nothing more than a piece of wire with a head on one end to stop your wholesale beads from falling off. The head pins will have a flat head and eye pins will have a loop.
