I use school pencil boxes. The blue one holds bobbins - the bobbins are in little containers that are labeled - sewing, quilting, bottom line, embroidery. The red one holds the USB sticks for embroidery and the dongle for the software. Another holds all the various marking pens and pencils. My embroidery thread is in OESD boxes. Sewing thread is on various thread holders that hang on the wall, sewing thread on one, quilting on another, specialty thread on another.
