Quilters are very inventive. There are lots of good ideas here. Thanks, I will be using some of them.
I use my empty pill bottles and glue the lid on with the child safety cap and then punch a hole in the top. I write used needles on the side and when I change my sewing machine needle, I put it in this pill bottle. When full, I throw them away and get another. I have several machines and each has its own needle bottle.
