That's what you call a "why didn't I think of that" idea! Very simple solution. :)

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.

Interesting idea. I have pipe cleaners (suggested for cleaning sewing machines), so I might try that.

That was an AWESOME link....thank you for sharing it!!!

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.

The rubber band is a fun idea. It would be too time consuming for me though. I like the round Bobbin Saver. I have about a dozen of them.

I have used rubber bands on thread, but will not do it again as it breaks down the thread. So think twice before you do it.

I slipped some large straws over the pegs and cut them to length.
