Steps:
Wash your jeans and dry them as you would normally do.
Determine where you want the bottom of your hem (this is the very bottom of the pant, not necessarily where you will be starting your fringe).
Depending on the length you want at the end, you will either cut the hemline off where the stitching is (or higher, if you wish to have a very high hemline) – or you will want to unravel the existing hem by taking out the hem string (this is usually orange). Word to the wise, if you choose this option, a seam ripper will make this task monumentally easier.
Determine how much fringe you want.
Once you know how much fringe you want, cut that sized amount right next to your jean’s seam lines (there will be 2 on each jean leg).
From the area where the fringe will be, cut the bulk of the seam off of the seam on the underneath side of the jean. The purpose here is to eliminate that bulky seam, as you will really only be using some of the seam threads to complete the fringe, and you don’t want a big, thick, seam hanging out right here. Tapor it off as it approaches the top where the unfringed jean is.
Cut vertical slits throughout the hem area the length of the desired fringe.
Remember, the blue fabric stays, the white fabric gets removed. Go through each section pulling out the white threads. The easiest way to do this is to start by pulling the blue threads down on either side of each section. Then, take your pin and pluck up the white threads. Grab these out with a tweezer or your nails.
Once you are finished with both legs and the length is where you want it, you may trim off any straggly threads with a scissor. (This is basically like giving it a haircut). Just go straight across and trim it up as evenly as possible.
Run a comb through the ends to untangle them, or you can use your fingers or the pin to do this.
Optional Step: Use a sewing machine to add a dark threaded straight-stitch hem close to where your fringe starts. This ensures that the fringed edges won’t continue to unravel past that stitch.
Wash and dry your jeans and the bottoms will become fluffy and filled out.
Wear your new, fabulous creation!
