How Do I Make or Get Glass In Minecraft – How to Use it?

how to make glass in minecraft

Minecraft first added glass blocks due to the community’s demands back in 2009. There are now different variations of glass blocks such as stained glass, glass pane, tinted glass, and so on.

Glass is also one of the easily craftable items in the game. All you need is some sand and a furnace, and you can have all the glass you need. 

You can look at all the diversification of glass and a detailed tutorial on making the said blocks below.

How to Get Glass in Minecraft?

Crafting glass does not require a lot of materials. All you have to do is collect sand. You can find a lot of it on river banks or a desert biome and smelt them.

  1. Gather the same number of sand blocks as the glass blocks you need.
  2. Place a Furnace.
  3. Add the Sand in the top space of the furnace.

  4. Place coal in the bottom of the furnace.
  5. Wait until all the sand is smelted into Glass.

Once the smelting process is complete, you can grab the glass blocks and place them in your inventory to use them.

You can use any item that burns, such as wood, charcoal, a bucket of lava, and wooden tools in the furnace to use at its fuel. However, coal and the bucket of lava have the longest burn time.

Additionally, the glass you collect from the furnace is in the block shape, so you do not have to worry about turning glass into a block.

What are the types of Glass in Minecraft?

The glass block is one of the many types of glass you can craft in Minecraft. You can further craft them into the following types.

  • Glass Pane
  • Stained Glass (colored glass blocks)
  • Stained Glass Pane (colored glass pane)
  • Tinted Glass

How to Craft Stained Glass in Minecraft?

Dying glass in Minecraft is easy. You will need to craft the color you want and some glass blocks. Let’s look at how we can dye the glass red.

  1. Take a Poppy and craft it into red dye using a crafting table.
  2. In the crafting table, place the red dye in the middle.

  3. Surround the dye with glass blocks.
  4. You can then grab the red stained glass from the right and put it in your inventory.

Using one glass block in each space surrounding the dye will give you eight stained glass blocks. The number of glass around the dye has to be the same if you want more than eight stained glass. For instance, if you add two glass blocks to each box, you will craft 16 stained glass blocks.

How to Craft Glass Pane in Minecraft?

Glass Panes are another variation of glass blocks. They are fairly easy to craft and only require glass blocks.

  1. Grab the glass blocks you want to craft into a glass pane.
  2. Access the crafting table and fill the top and bottom row with one glass block each.

  3. The finished product will be the glass pane.

When you use one glass block in each of the boxes in the crafting table, it yields 16 glass panes.

How to Craft Stained Glass Pane in Minecraft?

There are two methods you can use to craft a stained glass pane. The first is by using the stained glass blocks, and the other is by preparing stained glass panes and dying them.

Stained Glass Pane using Stained Glass Blocks

  1. Craft Glass Blocks and dye them using the methods above.
  2. Place one glass block in each box of the two rows on the crafting table.

  3. The finished product is a stained glass pane. The color is the same as the dye you used to dye the glass blocks.

Using this method is easy, and you can craft any colored stained glass. But you will have to make sure that all the glass blocks you use in the process are of the same color.

Craft Stained Glass Pane using Glass Panes

  1. Firstly, craft a glass pane by following the tutorial as mentioned earlier.
  2. Open the crafting table and place the dye of the desired color in the middle.

  3. Place one block in each of the spaces surrounding the dye.
  4. The process will yield eight stained glass panes of the same color as the dye.

Different Colors of Stained Glass

You can craft stained glass with any type of dye you can find in Minecraft. If you use a blue dye, the stained glass will be blue, and if you use pink dye, the glass will be pink.

You will have to remember that once you dye the glass, you will not be able to revert it to normal glass or change the color either.

What is Tinted Glass and How to Craft it?

Tinted glass is a new item added to the Cave and Cliffs update of the game. It is a special type of glass that blocks the light completely, but you will still be able to see behind it.

The tinted glass has many uses. For example, the mobs do not suffocate inside the tinted glass like regular glass blocks. It can also be used to build farms where you need to see what is happening but can’t let the light in.

Tinted glass, however, cannot be crafted into glass panes. So, if you need glass panes, make sure you have some extra glass with you before changing them all to tinted blocks.

You will need an amethyst shard and regular glass to craft tinted glass. You can get amethyst shards in amethyst caves by mining an amethyst cluster. A fully grown cluster will give you four shards when you mine it with a regular pickaxe.

  1. Put a glass block in the middle of the crafting table. 
  2. Place an amethyst shard on each side of the glass, i.e., top, bottom, left, and right.

  3. The product on the right side is tinted glass.
Tinted glass may look like normal black stained glass, but you will find the difference when you place it. Furthermore, tinted glass is mineable without using silk touch. You can even break it by hand and collect it.

How to make a glass door and window in Minecraft?

There is no specific recipe for a door or a window made out of glass in Minecraft. However, if you are a Redstone enthusiast, you can use it to make a glass door using Redstone, sticky pistons, and some kind of a switch.

Glass dorrs and windows

To make a glass window, you can simply place glass blocks or panes in the place where you want your windows.

How to make a Glass bottle in Minecraft?

A glass bottle is a really handy item in Minecraft. You can use it to store water to brew potions. You can also keep the brewed potions to help you in battles. To craft glass bottles, you will have to:

  1. Grab three glass blocks from your inventory.
  2. Put one glass block in the top right, one in the top left, and one in the middle of the crafting table.
    glass bottle recipe
  3. The item crafted on the right is a glass bottle.
You can only use normal glass blocks to craft glass blocks. If you use stained or tinted glass blocks, it will not yield you anything.

How do you make a thin window in Minecraft?

There is no set recipe for windows in the game like doors. Hence you can build your window however you want. Using glass blocks does give you the feel of a window, but you can use a glass pane to make it look thin and more realistic.

Can mobs spawn on glass?

Mobs need a full-height block to spawn on, meaning they cannot spawn on slabs. Furthermore, they also cannot spawn on transparent blocks such as glass. So if you have a building made out of glass, you can rest assured as mobs will not be able to spawn on it.

How do you get Lime Dye in Minecraft?

There are three ways you can get lime dye in Minecraft. First, you can mix the green and white dye to get it. You can also mix green dye and bone meal to get the lime dye.

If you have a sea pickle at hand, you can use a furnace for smelting it, which gives you lime dye.

How to make spyglass in Minecraft?

To make a spyglass, you need to place an amethyst shard on the top of the crafting table, followed by one copper ingot below the amethyst and another copper below it. The result will be spyglass.

You can use a spyglass to view further in the distance. Furthermore, you can use it on your off-hand while shooting with a bow, and it will give you the scope effect.
