Vicky Pattison Home Truths | Ideal home

In the evening, when I come home from work, and I know it’s my time with my husband and dog. Erkan will make dinner, and I will put on my favorite show. I’ll get a cozy blanket on the sofa, play with the kids and give them a few tummy scratches. It’s a really beautiful moment where I just come home to my family, and I don’t have to be anything but me.

Maybe a sofa. It’s big and L-shaped, and we sit there together Electric blanket On, and we watch film after film. We both love to just cuddle and chill, and the dogs love it when we’re there.

When the house is so perfect. My dream is to have a little cottage in the Cotswolds. But no part of me thinks the set-up will always look Instagram-worthy. It will always have paw prints, or if I’m blessed with that space, kids toys and greasy hand prints, and I’m okay with that. I think homes should be full of chaos and love and noise and mess.

I love a good bed. You can’t go wrong with either White Company Bedding; It seems like such a luxury.

I am very messy. My husband is polar opposite. He is very calm and measured. He takes off his clothes and hangs them up, and I take off my clothes and fall to the floor – I think it’s in the future-Vicky’s problem!

vacuuming. Our new Dyson V16 Piston Animal Cordless and super powerful. It takes the stress out of vacuuming and makes it really easy. With the dogs, my hair extensions, Ercan’s hairy everything, it has changed the house.

I am the hostess with the most! I do Easter egg hunts at Easter, I host friendsums at Christmas, I do birthday parties and doggie paws. I love nothing more than a big spread; A huge cake, a theme, hiring a photographer, getting decorations… I love to celebrate. Life is short, and it’s really hard, so I just think, throw caution to the wind and celebrate everything.
