About the Author Diane Trepanier began making jewelry in junior high school after receiving a gift of red lacquered wooden beads. Several years ago, when she began making lampworked beads, her studio began to take over her home — the kiln is on the stove top, the torch is on the porch, and her sofa holds many wire working odds and ends. Her wire designing has resulted in the development of a new wire tool, and she has formed a jewelry design company, Solfyre. Diane teaches and demonstrates wire working techniques, along with selling her jewelry throughout the US.
