Hello I'm Gabrielle Godoy, the owner of House of Hooray
When I was little I cut and dyed my Sindy doll’s hair and gave her felt tip pen tattoos, I wrote and illustrated my own books and liked to dress in matching colours. When I was a teenager I begged my mum to paint my bedroom walls black, dyed my hair bright pink and started to make my own clothes. At 16 I went to art school and I reluctantly left at 24 only to become an art teacher. House of Hooray began when I started to make things to decorate my daughters nursery. I wanted her to be surrounded by an abundance colour and joy, I love that when she is asked what her favourite colour is she says ‘Rainbow’. I like the idea that the things that hang on her bedroom walls will become a fond and familiar part of her childhood. Even though she may at some point want to replace them with posters of pop stars and may even one day ask to paint her room black.
