Great tips -- I have some very small plastic zip bags (I think they are for embroidery floss) and I can put the smaller spool and bobbin in. For the larger spools, I use bags that are a bit larger (from Michaels I think). I use plastic boxes for the thread since I ran out of drawer space a long time ago.

I have plastic storage, got several from connecting thread and others at Wal Mart a long time ago, everything gets dusty here with the dogs, and I can put bobbin on top of spool in case. Rubber band idea is great but here in FL they would not last too long, heat seems to get them.

Is it the rubber that breaks down the thread? I don't think the bands are made from rubber anymore. The large thin elastic bands for hair would work and last forever.
