Steps

01

Remove Old Fringe:

Carefully cut and remove the existing damaged or worn fringe. Be cautious not to damage the rug fibers during this process.

Clean the Edges:

After removing the old fringe, clean the edges of the rug to ensure there are no loose fibers or debris.

02

Measure and Cut New Fringe:

Measure the length of the original fringe to determine the appropriate length for the new fringe. Cut the fringe material accordingly, ensuring it matches the color and texture of the original fringe.

03

Apply Fabric Glue:

Apply fabric glue along the cleaned edges of the rug where the new fringe will be attached. Be sure to spread the glue evenly to create a secure bond.

05

Attach the New Fringe:

Press the cut fringe into the glue, ensuring it adheres securely to the rug. Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles in the fringe material.

Allow Time to Dry:

Give the fabric glue sufficient time to dry completely. Follow the recommended drying time specified on the glue's packaging.

06

Trim Excess Fringe:

Once the glue is dry, trim any excess fringe to achieve a neat and uniform appearance. Use sharp scissors for precision.

Inspect and Adjust:

Inspect the entire fringe area to ensure it is securely attached and visually consistent. Make any necessary adjustments to maintain uniformity.

Allow Final Drying:

Let the rug sit undisturbed for a final drying period to ensure that the fringe is securely attached.
