How we work
Editorial Policy
How Digalli chooses, makes, tests, and reviews its projects — clearly, safely, and independently.
Last updated: January 12, 2026
Trust is the only thing that makes a craft publication worth following. This page explains how we choose, make, test, write, and maintain everything on Digalli — and how we keep our projects friendly, reliable, and independent.
How we choose what to make
We write about the projects real beginners actually want: a first paper craft, a button sewn back on, a candle made from scratch, a rainy-afternoon idea for the kids. Ideas come from our own making, reader questions, and the things people tell us they wish they knew how to do. We do not chase trends for traffic's sake, and we skip projects that look pretty in a photo but fall apart in real life.
How we make and test projects
Every project is written or edited by a named maker on our team who has actually made the thing — usually more than once. We make each project ourselves before we publish it, note where beginners tend to get stuck, and time-test the fiddly steps so our instructions match reality. When materials, tools, or techniques matter, we research recognised, credible sources and the manufacturers' own guidance rather than guessing.
Clear steps and honest difficulty
We hold every tutorial to a simple standard: could a complete beginner follow this and end up happy? We write plain, numbered steps, list cheap and easy-to-find materials, and we are honest when something is tricky, time-consuming, or messy. If a project would only work for an experienced crafter with special equipment, we say so up front.
Safety comes first
Because crafting involves sharp tools, blades, hot glue, heat, candles, paints, and chemicals, we take safety seriously. We flag the risky steps, remind readers to follow product labels and ventilation guidance, and call out where adult supervision and age-appropriate, non-toxic materials are needed for children. Digalli is not professional safety advice; see our disclaimer for the full statement.
Our use of AI tools
Our tutorials are written and edited by people who make things. We may use software for spell-checking, research, or suggesting outlines, but a human maker is responsible for the substance, accuracy, and final wording of everything we publish — and a real person has made every project. We do not publish auto-generated content.
Independence and advertising
Digalli is funded by advertising — including Google AdSense — and, occasionally, affiliate links. To protect your trust:
- We never accept payment to praise a tool or product, and we do not run pay-for-placement tutorials.
- Advertising is clearly distinguishable from our projects and articles.
- Affiliate relationships never change our honest opinion — see our disclaimer for the full disclosure.
Corrections
We get things wrong sometimes, and when we do, we fix them quickly and transparently. If a step didn't work for you or you spot an error, email [email protected] or use our contact form. Substantive corrections are noted on the tutorial.
Updates
Because materials, tools, and our own techniques improve over time, we revisit popular projects and refresh them. When a tutorial is meaningfully updated, the publication date reflects the most recent revision.
Questions
If anything about how we work is unclear, we'd genuinely like to hear from you. Reach us any time at [email protected].
