I got little plastic zip bags about 2" x 3" or so, and I keep the thread and the bobbin together in the bag. I store the bags in a plastic container. I have also purchased color cards for my most frequently used threads - Aurifil, So Fine, and Masterpiece, so that I knnow at a glance if I even have the color I need. I just accumulated so many threads that a thread rack was no longer a viable option, and this system seems to work for me.
