I have been working on some projects for Christmas, and in the course of that, I needed some 100% cotton thread. The only kind I could find came in a large spool. That won't work on the spool pin on a normal sewing machine, so you can see what I did here. I put a rigid (in this case aluminum) drinking straw onto the spool pin, and then am able to put the large spool of thread on there and use it normally. I realize there are special thread stands you can buy for this, but at least in this instance, it wasn't necessary.
(Pay no attention to my messy desk, please.)
