Here was my workspace.  I got a medium size bowl, poured some liquid starch in it and mixed some flour in to thicken it up more.  I whisked it to get rid of lumps. 
This is what the liquid starch looks like.
I cut off a really long piece of yarn and blew up some balloons.  I soaked the yarn in the starch/flour mixture.  I also recommend using newspaper on your surface because it took me like a week to scrub off all the goop!
Just started wrapping the soaked yarn around the balloon...
..trying to get good coverage but not super thick.
After I wrapped four balloons of varying sizes, I hung them up to dry (I tied some yarn to the balloon tied part) for 24 hours.  Make sure they are completely dry, good and stiff. 
Once they were dry, I popped the balloons inside (which delighted my son) and they came off easily. 
Then I stuck the spider rings on, just by attaching the ring part to the strings.
Hung them up with some Halloween-y ribbon!  Creepy spider egg sacs!
