How to Craft a Painting in Minecraft

Last updated
Wondering how you can add some flair to your Minecraft builds? Let’s talk about making paintings!
So, you’re playing Minecraft and decide your base could use a little decoration. What better way to do this than with a painting? But how do you make one? Let’s dive in.
The Short Answer: Crafting a Painting
Crafting a painting in Minecraft is easy! You need two things: sticks and wool.
First, gather 8 sticks. You can make these by turning wooden planks into sticks in your crafting table. Then, find some wool. Sheep around your world drop wool when you shear them. Once you have 8 sticks and 1 piece of wool, you’re ready to craft a painting. Place the wool in the center of the crafting grid, and surround it with sticks. That’s it!
Bringing Your Minecraft World to Life
Paintings can make your Minecraft home or castle feel lived-in and unique. You can hang them on any solid surface. When you place a painting, it will randomly select an art piece from the game’s collection. If you don’t like the one you got, just break the painting and try again until you find your perfect fit!
