Ever wondered how to add some brightness to your Minecraft world? Lighting up your surroundings is not only crucial for keeping monsters at bay but also for making your builds look amazing. Let’s dig into how you can create a light in Minecraft.
So, how exactly do you make a light in Minecraft? Whether you’re building a cozy cottage or a grand castle, knowing how to light up your space is key.
Quick Steps to Create Light
There are several ways to make a light in Minecraft, but the most common method is by crafting torches. Torches are easy to make and provide a good amount of light. You’ll need sticks and coal or charcoal. Just place a stick in the bottom middle of the crafting grid, and coal or charcoal directly above it. Voila, you’ve got yourself a torch!
Torches aren’t the only way to light up your world, though. There are other light sources like lanterns, glowstone, and sea lanterns that not only serve the practical purpose of lighting but also add to the aesthetic appeal of your builds.
