The history Briggs is a Houston native with several years of art and gym teaching experience. She said her love for crafts began with painting T-shirts, and after moving to Georgetown, she began selling her creations at the city’s market days. Originally, Pink Poppy Artisans Boutique opened on the Square in 2013. In 2020, Briggs made the decision to downsize her space and moved into The Summit at Rivery Park. “We had a lot of foot trac downtown, but the clientele changes when you have festivals and other events like that. We really value making connections with our local community, and that was getting lost in the busyness,” Briggs said.
