    You can by it sheets and different gsm.

    This is so incredible. I have worked with Tyvek before with a heat gun but this method gives so much more control. Thank you so much for opening my eyes!!

    I have watched other channels demonstrate tyvek but I must say that I really love your pieces the most! You manipulate it more and I think your resulting pieces are soo beautiful! Also I like that you use them in fabric collage! Thank-you!

    About ten years ago I made layered flowers of melted tyvek to use as an embellishment on my crochet bags and I had forgotten all about it. It must be somewhere in my studio and your video inspired me to use it again. It was so much fun to play with it! Thanks Lisbeth.

    That piece you ironed to demonstrate how it can completely disappear . . . it looked so light and lacy, like an angel’s wing. Beautiful.

    Great video, I learned something new! I played with Tyvec many years ago. I painted it just using acrylic paints so loved seeing you use different paints/pens. Since Tyvec house wrap is thicker than Tyvec mailing envelopes and the end results differ. I noticed that what you put on the Tyvec affected the outcome slightly too. I never flipped my Tyvec pieces over and ironed the other side. I LOVE the distressed look it created! I’m going to do that to some of mine I have done. Thank you for sharing! Appreciate you 😊

    Oh my, your results are beautiful! I always use a heat gun and heat tool with a small tip to re-melt edges that I'm not happy with (such as your cut edges). I think you have a bit more control using the iron and they are more flat (if wanted). I look forward to trying this your way and to the art you make using your pieces! Thank you.

    I use the thinner variety, colour it and stitch into it, then shrink it slowly with my heat gun until I am happy with it. It behaves more like fabric and I'm careful with the heat so as to not burn my stitches. It works well for bead making

    • @lisbethdegn-dragenkunst
      @lisbethdegn-dragenkunst  Před 2 měsíci +1

    For those in the US, in what format & where do you purchase Tyvec? I see several different name brands & tape, paper rolls for over $100 & separate sheets of paper for less.

      As I say in the video, my Tyvek is many years old. I show the label of the packaging in the video. You probably can’t buy that brand any more. My is 100x70 cm sheets.
