The Vietnamese wire artist, Lan Anh Handmade, has a cool wire tutorial for making chains based on just one wire shape - a length of wire with two loops at the end. It is amazing to see unique V shaped chain lengths form from such a simple element.  She shows how variations are possible. 

An alternative linking component style is the Egyptian coil - see this tutorial. 

One thing is for sure - you will get plenty of practice in making consistent loops.  I think short lengths of the formed chain will make pretty earrings too. 



The Beadsmith has a very useful tool called the One- Step Looper which helps make consistent loops. A time saver if you have lots to do.  Cuts the wire in the process too.  This tool might make the above chain making a mite easier! There are different versions for different loop sizes available.
