How to Use Fusible Web - Mixed Media Techniques

[@MrsPatJones]

This popped up today and I'm so pleased for the reminder of all these different ways to use what we call Bondaweb in UK. I haven't used it enough in the past few years but let's see what happens in 2025! Thank you

[@SandraDuranWilson]

@@MrsPatJones so glad i popped into your feed. I do love using this at times. It adds that little bit of texture.

I’m so happy today because I found you. These ideas are fabulous. I will be exploring your classes. I feel I need more expressions of texture, color and creativity in my life and this feels right to me. 🌱💛 I’m liking the idea of giving my iron new purpose.

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Oh definitely a new direction for the iron 😄. Enjoy and thank you for watching.

[@ArtMarketingMentor]

I've loved your art for years and now I am enjoying your great videos. I'm so happy to learn that The iron and board I bought 5 years ago and are still in their boxes now may have a useful life.

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Hi Aletta-so great to hear from you and thank you! I know my clothes iron doesn't see much action like the studio iron.

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Play, explore and discover.

[@trudy3637]

Oh, I love this technique! Thanks for sharing it. Do you think watercolor would work well on the fusible web?

[@SandraDuranWilson]

It might. Give it a go.

[@b00kish66]

What a wonderful idea! Tired of traditional uses, I can't wait to try this! Thank you for sharing!

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Thanks and I hope to see what you come up.

[@RoseWildsmith]

Hi Sandra, thanks so much for sharing. Do the surfaces where you’ve ironed on some painted web get sticky? Can the glue be reactivated once it’s set? I’m thinking about in hot weather and if you have it in a sketchbook etc.

[@SandraDuranWilson]

I usually adhere the web with acrylic medium because ironing it doesn't hold it great. Once put on, you can't remove it.

[@gayneels5169]

Thanks so much for sharing this!

[@SandraDuranWilson]

You are so welcome.

[@cyndiwebb1143]

Can you use mica powders on the webbing.... I need to experiment ... you inspire me ‼️♥️

[@carollenolin7249]

Hello, love what you create. Could you tell me which number of pellon fusible you used? is it really the number 805?

[@SandraDuranWilson]

It is the heavy pellon Wonder Under. I am not sure of a number.

[@cindyluck6479]

This was wonderful. Thank you. I’m very excited to try this technique

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Excited to see what you come up with. Thanks for watching.

[@lindawinchell4108]

[@gloriagiefer3013]

Are the paints mixed with a medium or straight out of the bottle?

[@amieseahorn6820]

So wonderful!! TFS

[@cyndiwebb1143]

So awesome.... thank you 😊

[@SandraDuranWilson]

You are welcome and thanks for watching.

[@stephaniequattrini1665]

Hi. I wanted to ask a question about the molding paste sample. At the beginning of that sequence, you said to work on the paper side, was that just a mistake? I noticed when you pulled apart the molding paste sample you did during the video, it looked like you were working on the fusible side. It was difficult to see the result but the paste looked very thin, thinner than the blue sample you had prepared earlier. So many questions! I hope you are still monitoring your KZbin site. Thanks

[@SandraDuranWilson]

You caught that. I thought I had corrected myself later in the video but you are correct to apply the paste to the web side. Let me know if you have more questions. Thanks for watching.

[@colleen2211]

thank you sandra

[@SandraDuranWilson]

You are so very welcome.

[@pamelagarski6940]

Great tips! Tx

[@SandraDuranWilson]

[@josephina4792]

This is a cool way to use wonder under....can the painted web be ironed onto fabric? I'm guessing yes, but wonder how durable it would be?

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Yes it can be ironed onto fabric. It would be fine as an art piece but not so much for a wearable work. Thanks for watching.

[@josephina4792]

@@SandraDuranWilson Thank you!!

[@NH-bm9vy]

fab demo thank you but i'm struggling to understand the use of the fusible web here. You stamp a print onto the web, then fuse the web to a backing. why not just stamp directly onto the substrate you are using? any feedback would be greatly appreciated!!

[@SandraDuranWilson]

You are creating another layer. The main reason would be to apply this over a textured surface, one that would be difficult to stamp on.

[@NH-bm9vy]

@@SandraDuranWilson Thank you for clearing that up for me. Much appreciated!

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Also you can fuse the fabric onto surfaces like metal or paper. You may not want to alter the surface of a delicate paper with glue or gel. You got my brain going. I put a lot of these answers in my 6 books too.

[@teresita.bustos]

Yo soy de Argentina y no sé si esa tela que usas para Esta técnica es la que se llama fiselina acá me podés decir qué otros nombres tiene esa tela que usas de respaldo para la pintura gracias

[@SandraDuranWilson]

I am not sure if it is the same product. If it is something that is used to bond fabric together then it could work.

[@teresita.bustos]

@@SandraDuranWilson thanks for your response Voy a probar y despues le comparto el resultado gracias por su amable respuesta

[@MsBrickman1]

Did you use the light or heavyDid you use the light or heavy web?

[@SandraDuranWilson]

I used the heavy, but not the one for denim.

[@jerirobertson8393]

Can you use the Pell on in a printer?

[@SandraDuranWilson]

You can use an ink jet, not a laser. Pump up the saturation because a lot of ink ends up on the carrier paper.

[@philipmclatcher4940]

Fabulous

[@MsBrickman1]

What shade of white did you use

[@SandraDuranWilson]

From the video it looks like Holbein fluid titanium white.

[@ruthsonger2178]

With a careful use of a heat gun, the fusible web will "break" and form odd and unanticipated shapes in the painted fusible web. Sometimes the heat will fuse the web to your project and other times an iron will do a full fuse. Just another idea.

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Thank you Ruth. I also like to fuse several pieces together with the heat gun and putting them in an embroidery hoop before fusing creates innovative patterns. I love this stuff.

[@vivianbunch1963]

Can this be ironed onto fabric?

[@SandraDuranWilson]

Yes, that is what it is designed for, but the paint may prevent it from adhering. I suggest using a second piece of fusible web without paint to adhere it. This will cut down on the transparency tho. All tradeoffs.

[@manuelakalestiantz3963]

What type of paper did you use to get that skin

[@SandraDuranWilson]

I used many different types of paper throughout the video. The thinner papers like rice papers or tissue will give you the thinnest skins. Open weave and thicker papers create a unique type of skin. Can you tell me at what timeframe in the video you are referring to?
