Mine is all in clear plasic thread boxes that I purchased at Joann's.

I just finally got all my thread onto racks. I don't have them covered yet but plan to. I've been looking for ways to do this effectively myself. I'll keep watching for more ideas.

I have just the thing!! Protects from dust & still able to see colors. Take a sandwich bag, slip over cone, measure on 2 sides where to sew, stitch with very small stitch, cut off to exact height on bottom.
Hope this is explained well enough. Enjoy... :thumbup: :thumbup: |

I keep my thread in a box. Works for me.

My thread is stored in cases. I don't want them to get all dusty!

I did not realize how dusty thread can get till I looked at it all one day, and wow...had to unwind the top layer..and cut it.

(It's not there as a dust cover - just there cause it was a place to put it!)
