Mum 'proud to live in council house' she transformed into chic home after mean comments

A mum has completely transformed her council house into a chic new home after being the target of hateful comments.

Tiffany and her husband Aaron share their big life updates on TikTok - where they have 44.6k followers.

The mum-of-three has lived in the property for 10 years with her family, and has shown what they have done to transform it into a stylish abode.

Tiffany wrote a caption to the video, which reads: “My beautiful Council house is nearly all finished.

"YES I said it & I’m not ashamed to either.

“I work hard & pay the bills just like any homeowner.”

To get the look, the couple added new wooden flooring to the hallway.

For the living room, they covered the floor with a grey fluffy carpet - giving it a stylish but cosy feel.

She paired the carpet with white wooden cabinets, curtains, and painted the walls grey.

A grey sofa is still in the works, and will be arriving soon, she added.

Tiffany says the home will be completed by Christmas (@tiffandairz/Tiktok)

She shared a clip of her modern kitchen in a separate video on the account.

Commenting on her own video, she said the work - which was built in 1992 - will be finished by Christmas.

She adds: “I lived on the same estate growing up same street and same style house.”

Tiffany also explained a little about her personal journey in another comment.

She said that it took her 10 years to get to where she is now after spending a period of time homeless with her three children.

She says: “I wish I had money to have my own but it’s took me 10 years to get where I am today, as long as it’s filled with love does it really matter.”

Tiffany hit back at negative comments which told her "don't be proud" because she lives in a council house.

"My last post I had lots of comments saying it's a council house don't be proud", she wrote.

"So I was making a point that's it nothing to be ashamed of."

Despite some hateful comments, many praised the couple for the renovation.

One wrote: “I love you[r] wood furniture.”

Another said: “Love it! Looks so cosy all in time for festive celebrations Christmas.”

A third chimed in: “Beautiful amazing. Contemporary modern u [sic] should be a property developer, love the decor.”
