christmas ornaments covered in fishnet stockings with a wee basket attatched
j+k+m+e | running with needles
What kat said, or papier mache for the balloons themselves.
To make the netting rigid, you can soak it in liquid starch and hang it upside down to dry.... as if you were making one of these: https://www.ehow.com/how_4556821_make-starch-string-ornaments.html but without the popping part.
Or I'd just buy something like this... https://www.amazon.com/Schylling-Tin-Hot-Balloon-Mobile/dp/B001ELRF7K/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1290980737&sr=8-10
Or look at Kirklands and World Market for christmas ornaments in hot air balloon shapes.
Those are super cute!
You can actually purchase that cotton fish netting.

If you can't find christmas ornaments that large like kat suggested, there are probably large orbs at Hobby Lobby that you can buy and paint or cover in fabric.
