When everything seems messy and tangled up 

it's all about finding the loose ends and carefully untangle them. 

It's your choice;

whether you want to cut some of them off completely, 

roll them up for later,
just leave them hanging loose,
weave them together,

or 

 simply fasten them to something with clever boating knots.
