Making your first house in Minecraft can take time, especially if you don’t know where to start. Although raising the structure is not difficult, we cannot say the same about the decoration. You can spend hours and hours gathering materials to make objects. In some cases finding certain materials is quite dangerous because you have to face NPCs who are hostile.
This time we will see how to make glass and panels to use as a window . Doing both is somewhat more complicated than making a door . You have to get more types of materials. Well, here I have to make a point. Crafting glass panels is not complicated. What takes the most time are the glass blocks. That being said, let’s look at the process step by step.
How to make glass
It’s time to walk and stretch your legs. You have to go to an area where you can get sand. There is sand from deserts, beaches and certain places where there is water. Remember to bring a shovel! Grab all the sand you can , don’t skimp.
To make glass blocks you have to use the oven no matter what, so you need charcoal. Coal is very easy to obtain. Pickaxe in hand you have to head towards a cave to chop coal ores . You can also get charcoal. To craft glass blocks it doesn’t matter one or the other. If you want to know more about charcoal, we remind you that we have a guide where we explain how to get it and what to do with it .
Once you have sand and coal in your inventory, you can go to the oven. In the upper part of the oven you have to put the sand, while the charcoal goes in the lower box . You now have glass blocks! It took some time, but if you have collected a lot of coal and sand you will be able to craft quite a few blocks.
How to make glass panels
It’s the turn of the glass panels. Now that you have glass blocks you can make panels that you can use as windows. The process is easy and fast , forget about searching for materials around the world, you have everything you need in inventory.
On the work table you have to put 6 glass blocks to obtain 16 glass panels . By the way, if you want to tint the panels you have to do one more step in the process of obtaining blocks. In the central square of the work table you put a dye of the color you want and in the rest of the squares you place the blocks.
