Question: Ideas for origami with a function?

I like to make origami, but not boring pigs that just sit there and look OK. I make things like NINJA-STARS and WATERBOMBS, which were fun before but both are quite boring now. I'd like some more ideas for origami which actually has a function and does something. Thanks in advance ;)

Http://www.origami-instructions.com/origami-box.html i like this one, and if you use card flyers with interesting design, (plus make a top to the box by using a slightly bigger piece of card, or a couple mm space in the middle of the second set of folds to the centre) you will have a functional box for any small item need. I have used them for jewelry, amongst many things, plus made a whole series of them, like 'russian dolls' but with paper boxes:)
