I am just starting to use silk floss, just a little in each project because of cost!  I usually use DMC and wind onto bobbins.

How should I store the silk?  I don't want to damage it, I can't afford to replace it.

Baggies, bobbins, or ?????

Please help!  I need advice.  Thanking you in advance. :)
because, replace, starting, usually
