[message] => I store mine the same way. Basically, I bought a pack of the little stickers with the numbers on them and over the course of the year any time I was somewhere that sold thread, I'd pick up a few skeins.
The funny thing is that I inherited my aunt's thread collection when she passed and she stored hers a completely different way (a box of skeins sorted into individual jewelry bags -- she did a lot of floral/plant cross stitches so there's tons of duplicates of various greens and browns.
So now when I run out I have a process of checking her stash before heading to the store. It's like having a back-up thread source, which comes in handy when I run out at 10 o'clock at night and don't want to wait until morning.

My son had so many of those little cars he collected, they were everywhere. I found the box I use online somewhere and thought that would help the clutter. Problem is, he never put his cars in it, so I found a great use for it! Floss holder! LOL!
