Teen Mom Chelsea Houska shows off antelope-print rug in 'ugly' new home after admitting 'not everyon

TEEN Mom Chelsea Houska showed off the antelope-print rug in her new home after admitting "not everyone is going to like it."

Surprisingly, many fans actually liked how the running rug looked.

Chelsea, 29, took to her interior design Instagram where she showed off the finished product of her new rug.

Along with a picture of it on the staircase, she wrote: "When you want a statement staircase...and you get a statement staircase.

"OBSESSED! @viewrail will be in next week and I cannot wait to see this baby finished up!"

In fact, just two weeks ago, she gave a glimpse of this same rug without really showing off the results.

Due to the amount of backlash she had received at that point over her home's decoration, she told fans: "OK so I am stressing this morning and I know it's not that big of a deal but I just wanted to get your opinion.

"I'm fully aware that not everyone's going to like this animal print carpet and stairrunner and that's totally fine, we are obsessed by it."

The South Dakota native, who found TV fame on Teen Mom 2, then headed inside the property and upstairs, honing her phone camera on the rug of varying shades of brown and gray and with white spots.

The mom of three said of the fabric design: "Right now it's in the catwalk between the two bedrooms but then it will also go down the stairs.

"It's just a fun little pop of cuteness."

She then added a text box to ask her followers whether there should be a light or dark strip down the length of the runner when placed on the stairs.

Chelsea will soon share the pad with husband Cole DeBoer and their three kids with another on the way - and last week told how it was close to completion - despite trolls likening her newly-installed bathroom to a "horror movie" set.

She wrote on the renovation page: ""I just love it. Crazy to think how close we are to being done!!"

Yet fans were definitely not all for the exterior of the home, either, as they took to the Reddit comments section to react.

One person wrote: "Sooooooo ugly oh my god," while another chimed in with, "Hideous. With her house budget, she could have chosen something gorgeous. This is terrible and so is the corn field view."

They weren't done there as one fan said: "This house is WAY too black. Yuck," yet Chelsea was quick to clap back, again insisting her choice of decor "wasn't for everybody."

Decorating her new home has been practice for Chelsea as she just confirmed she was quitting Teen Mom 2 to focus on her family's brand.

Alongside a photo of Chelsea, her husband Cole DeBoer and their kids, the Teen Mom 2 star wrote: "MTV’s Teen Mom 2 has been a big part of my life for almost 11 years.

"After much thought and discussion with my family and friends, Cole and I have decided that this season will be our last.

"We are forever thankful to MTV and our crew, who are like family to us. We’re parting on the best of terms and will stay in touch long after this."

The MTV star continued: "We’re proud to have been able to share our story and are so grateful to the fans who have followed our journey from the beginning.  

"Our next chapter in life will focus on developing our brand and taking things to the next level with new endeavors and expanding family businesses.

"Please tune into our last moments on the show and continue to follow along our journey on social media."

Chelsea concluded: "We are so excited for this next phase of our lives and hope you all will be a part of it in some way!"

News broke in October that Chelsea was leaving the show after about 10 years.

Sources close to the 29-year-old Teen Mom revealed she told the producers last month, but most of the cast and crew found out as they virtually filmed the season 10 reunion show.

An insider close to celeb gossip site The Ashley said: "The girls were filming from their homes, along with Dr. Drew [Pinsky] and Nessa, and at the end when all of the girls were on-screen together with [the hosts], they let Chelsea make her announcement to them.

"Chelsea told everyone that she has decided that it’s best for her family if they move on from the show, and that it was a really hard decision, but that she feels like a weight has been lifted from her shoulders.

"The girls were all supportive of her decision, but no one else announced that they were leaving."

"It’s obvious Chelsea’s life doesn’t really fit the show anymore, though."
