‘Please be aware that this can catch fire because it’s not designed to be used in that way. Would hate for something bad to happen,’ one person wrote.

‘Oh no!! I’m dangerous. I’d be taking it down as lovely as it is. The light bulb could get far too hot and up in flame’s the raffia will go,’ another said.

A third added: ‘Please take these lights down. I lost my home and everything in it in the Lismore floods, trust me you don’t want to lose your home and everything you own to a fire.’

Others also mocked the woman’s design and described it as ‘ugly’.

‘It looks like my damaged hair after I bleached it for the fifth time,’ one person wrote, another added: ‘Spiders, that’s all I have to say.’

‘Awe man, I thought it was two minute noodles for a moment there,’ another said.
