Holly Edwards found a neat way to get design ideas for Cloisonne and other similar styles:
“When creating faux Cloisonne jewellery and in need of inspiration, I found that looking at stained glass designs is really helpful.
You can also look at simplistic line art, or find designs you can simplify (but only if they are royalty free!).
Essentially you are looking for line and color patterns…even stencil patterns will do!”
Dover Publications is one good source of copyright-free stained glass designs.
