What Materials Do You Need?
Crafting paintings in Minecraft requires just two simple materials: wool and sticks. The image below shows what you need.
Get wool by shearing sheep—any color will work!
For sticks, simply punch any tree. You'll get wooden planks, which can be easily crafted into sticks.
How to Make a Painting
Open your crafting table and arrange the wool and sticks as shown below. Place the wool in the center square.
Congratulations! You've created your very own Minecraft masterpiece!
How to Hang a Painting
Hanging your painting is simple. Just hold the painting and right-click on a wall.
The image is random, adding an element of surprise! To hang a larger painting, mark the area with blocks, place the painting in the bottom left corner, and watch it expand.
Note: Paintings facing north and south are brighter than those facing east and west.
Can You Create Custom Paintings?
Not without modifying the game files. Custom paintings are possible only through resource packs.
Interesting Facts
Hanging a painting above a light source turns it into a makeshift lamp! Paintings are also fireproof and can even be used to cleverly conceal chests.
This guide covered the basics of creating and hanging paintings in Minecraft. Enjoy decorating your world!
