I do keep them together like if it's silk cotton if it is just regular sewing thread I just put them in a bobbin holder. I said I keep the special one's together I sometimes use a pipe cleaner put it thru the hole in the spool and the bobbin. I also have a small box I put bobbins in I will mark the bobbin using a small piece of paper with the kind of thread and just tape it on the bobbin I also use bobbin holder that fits on top of the spool if the spool is the right size it works.

Sounds like everyone has their own method. If it's ordinary thread, mine goes in my Bernina bobbin rack. If it's a special thread, I put the spool on my wire thread rack and put the bobbin on a golf tee and push it into the spool. I have several of the golf tees that I hot glued the round magnet to the ball rest. When you have a hand sewing project, they are also handy for sticking in the spool and your sewing needle sticks to the magnet.

I keep my thread in a tackle box of sorts. I put little fuzzy hair scrunchies around the bobbin so they don't unwind, then put the bobbin in the same 'slot' as the thread in the tackle box.

I kee my bobbins with my thread. See my post on my thread storage system:
