How to Make Spider Eggs for Halloween: Step by Step Directions

Read through the step by step directions before starting this DIY Halloween decoration.

Step 1 – Blow up balloons to make spider eggs

Step 2 – Mix white glue with water in equal parts

Use equal parts white glue and water and mix to make a watered down glue solution for the yarn.

Step 3 – Add white yarn to glue solution

Carefully place the white yarn into the glue solution to soak. Make sure you leave an end of the yarn on the side of the bowl so you can find it.

Step 4 – Wrap balloons with yarn

Next, wrap each balloon with white yarn to make spider eggs. Do your best to wind the yarn and wrap it around and around in several directions to create a spider egg.

Step 5 – Allow Spider Egg Halloween Decorations to Dry

Tie dry yarn or monofilament line around the knot on the balloon and hang it to dry for at least 24 hours. The yarn will be hard when it’s dry.

Step 6 – Pop balloons and remove from the inside of the spider egg craft

Use a needle or sharp knife to pop the balloon inside each spider egg and gently remove it from the inside of the spider egg. Work carefully so your spider egg craft does not collapse.

It became a challenge to take pictures when my daughter and I were making these spider eggs together because our hands got filled with glue! I think you can figure out how to wrap the balloons with yarn in the brief photo tutorial below.

In our excitement to pop the balloons once our spider eggs were dry, we also forgot to take pictures of them when they were hanging to dry–doh!! I think you get a general idea of how to make these, right?
