EP 103: Balancing Business and Creativity with Kristen Ley, Founder of Thimblepress

This week I had the honor of chatting with the founder, owner and creative director  of Thimblepress, Kristen Ley. Founded in a garage back in 2012, Thimblepress® is a design & lifestyle company aiming to create products that make people happy. Each product is designed by Kristen and filled with loads of love & color. Thimblepress® is sold in over 1500 retail shops internationally and her products are also available on Thimblepress.com. Thimblepress has worked and collaborated with Target, Hallmark, Moon & Lola, Glitter Guide, Throw Pillow, Speak Wines, June & January, Keds.

In this episode we chat about:

  • How Kristen’s career as a graphic designer led her to launching Thimblepress

  • How she works with manufactures from all over to bring her products to life

  • How she has been able to build a huge community around her brand

  • How she continues to market her products

  • And how she branched off into working as a coach who now helps other creatives bring their business to life.
