For cutting the fringes shorter, you will need:
A cutting mat, a roller cutter, spray can with water, ruler, ironing board, a few glass-headed pins, a broad-toothed comb (like a dog comb).
Pin the ends of the fringe to the ironing board over the cutting mat. Spray the fringe with water and comb it smooth. Place the ruler over the ends of the fringe and firmly run the cutter along the edge of the ruler - that's all there is to it!
