A WOMAN has hit back at people criticising her for decking out her rented house, insisting she pays the rent so it's HER home.
Carmen is known for decorating the front of her house depending on the time of year, and currently has giant daffodils adorning the outside.
But things inside the property are just as colourful and vibrant, as she showed in a video on her TikTok page.
"POV: Your landlord comes to inspect your house," Carmen wrote over the clip, as she took the camera into the house.
As well as green walls as soon as she walked in, there was an astronaut figure attached to the wall, and green and silver stairs.
The kitchen featured a white and yellow striped fridge, hot pink worktops and cupboards that had the appearance of sprinkles.

While in the front room was leopard-print cupboards, striped wallpaper, coloured table and chairs and even a donut beanbag.
"Yes it's rented but I pay the rent right?" Carmen captioned her video.
"So it's my house. No negative comments please."
Despite Carmen predicting a trolling in the comments section, the majority of people insisted they didn't see a problem with how she'd decorated the house.
