Mike Aspinall

Mike Aspinall is 'The Crafty Gentleman' and a self-confessed craft addict. He is one of the UK’s most popular craft bloggers and has been shortlisted for awards with Pinterest, Mollie Makes, Craft Business and more. Through his blog, he's been elected as the UK Singer Sewing Brand Ambassador and the UK Ambassador for Cricut.

As well as appearing on British national television, and on popular crafting channel The Craft Store (formerly named Hochanda), Mike's work has been featured in UK national newspapers The Guardian and The Telegraph. He has taught craft workshops across the country and internationally, and has collaborated with numerous brands and celebrities.

He believes passionately that crafting is not just for women, so he set up his blog to celebrate the diversity of making things (and to hopefully encourage a few more men into the world of crafts). He posts original DIY & craft projects, recipes, tips and crafty inspiration, all from his home in Nottingham, UK.

He continues to share his designs with his followers via his website: www.thecraftygentleman.net
