Tatsuya Tanaka is a Japanese artist (not to be confused with the footballer) who has created playful tiny diorama out of food and other everyday items on his Instagram account @tanaka_tatsuya for his project, "Miniature Calendar"

What's even more impressive is that Tanaka has started doing this since 2011 and he has been posting a new picture every single day!

Tanaka has this clever way of making mundane everyday objects you can find at home and turn it into something interesting

Like how you never saw Rubik's cubes as stained glass walls but he did…

… or how he transformed a toilet roll into a 'waterfall'

… and he has definitely put his old cassettes into good use

We suspect that he probably buys fruit often but not eat them

And ice-cream treats could turn into a snowboarding session…

Just when you thought it's difficult enough to come up with a creative idea everyday, Tanaka challenged himself to come up with a stop-motion animation

We reckon that he will excel if he works in an advertising agency
