Crafting candles step by step

Crafting recipe

To craft a candle, use 1 string and 1 honeycomb on the crafting area. The Minecraft candle crafting recipe is the same in every version of the game with no changes whatsoever. Now you can go to your Crafting Table where you have made at least 6 Pickaxes by now and select it. You will need at least 2 candles to do this so be sure that you have them in your inventory before moving forward or else this trick won’t work

Setting

Put the two candles inside of the furnace then close it up so that there are not gaps left open around it’s exterior walls when they are gone. Once you light one candle up, wait for it to melt down completely before placing another one in its stead until you have used up all of them. Pick up the now empty furnace and place it down as you normally would if you wanted to start a new fire.

Lit the candle

The furnace will have a lit candle icon above it when at least one is burning meaning that you are doing it correctly. If you look inside, there will be a small fire going and the item that is being cooked will have a flame animation effect too. The cooking process takes about 10 minutes in total so just wait patiently until the timer runs out or else your food will become charred and inedible.

Make a fish bowl

One way to make a Fish Bowl is by using 9 Clay Blocks on top of each other with nothing else selected at the center of where you are standing then hit the crafting button on Survival Mode again. The Minecraft Fish Bowl crafting recipe is the same in every version of the game with no changes whatsoever. This will save a lot of materials since you won’t have to make so many casting molds which can eventually break down on their own if you use them enough times.

Conclusion

The result from combining those items in that way creates a new item known as the Bottle which acts as a container for liquids just like how canteens work in real life. In order to create some bottles, all you have to do is place 3 glass blocks on top of this enormous crafting area then select one of them once it gets highlighted within your screen. Just think about it for a moment and imagine all of the things that you could do with these bottles that you just crafted. You could store water, milk, potions, and more inside of them so that way you don’t have to carry around a lot of items with you.
