Crystal Light type containers are also great thread holders. If you use Aurifil thread four spools fit in one container. I also keep my all cotton thread and bobbins in these types of containers. I have a mixture of thread and want to keep the all cotton separate for when I make microwave things. It's easy to know the thread because it is labeled but the bobbins are not so easy so I keep it all together.
