This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a blue bed with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, a blue bed is a new color of bed introduced in the game. You can sleep in a blue bed at night to avoid mobs spawning and attacking you. Also once you’ve slept in this type of bed, it resets your spawn point. There is more than one way to craft a blue bed.

Let’s explore how to make a blue bed.

Where to find a Blue Bed in Creative Mode

Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac)

Here is where you can find a blue bed in the Creative Inventory menu:

Platform Version(s) Creative Menu Location
Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.12 – 1.19

Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.19.3 – 1.19.4
  • Platform is the platform that applies.
  • Version(s) is the Minecraft version numbers where the item can be found in the menu location listed (we have tested and confirmed this version number).
  • Creative Menu Location is the location of the item in the Creative Inventory menu.

Required Materials to make a Blue Bed

In Minecraft, these are the materials you can use to craft a blue bed:

3 Oak Planks
3 Spruce Planks
3 Birch Planks
3 Jungle Planks
3 Acacia Planks
3 Dark Oak Planks
3 Mangrove Planks
3 Bamboo Planks
3 Crimson Planks
3 Warped Planks
3 Blue Wool
1  Blue Dye

TIP: You can use any type of wood plank! You don’t have to gather them all.

How to craft a Blue Bed in Survival Mode

1. Open the Crafting Menu

First, open your crafting table so that you have the 3×3 crafting grid that looks like this:

2. Add Items to make a Blue Bed

In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 crafting grid. To make a blue bed, you will need to place specific items in the grid. It is important that the items are placed in the exact pattern as our example images. Changing the pattern of boxes that are filled will change the item that is crafted.

There are 2 patterns you can use as a crafting recipe for a blue bed:

Pattern 1

There should be 3 blue wool in the first row and 3 wood planks in the second row.

Pattern 2

In the first row, there should be 1 white bed in the first box and 1 blue dye in the second box.

TIP: When crafting a blue bed with wood planks, you can use any kind of wood planks, such as oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak, crimson, or warped planks. In our example, we are using oak planks.

Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the blue bed will appear in the box to the right.

3. Move the Blue Bed to Inventory

Once you have crafted a blue bed, you need to move the new item to your inventory.

Congratulations, you have made a blue bed in Minecraft!
