Embroidery Fixes using things we already have! I use a packing peanut and binder clips to route unruly thread :)

Over time I know that I have seen other great ideas posted. thought it might be nice to have them in one place. I did search for a thread here...but did not find one, if there is one, I would love to have the link.

Please share any good ideas.
In particular, I had seen at one point someone, maybe not here, was using a plastic bottle for the a thread stand, and was trying to figure out how that worked, anyone here do this?
