How to craft these materials

Glass

Furnace
  • 1 Sand

Three glass

Shovel sand, then smelt three blocks in a furnace. That makes three glass, which is the whole bottle craft. A desert or a beach fills a stack of sand fast.

A V of glass

Open the Crafting Table. Left and right of one row get a glass each. The next row down gets one glass in the center. Three glass bottles appear on the right; take them. The 2×2 inventory cannot hold this width.

Dip, then brew

Use a bottle on a water source to fill it. That water bottle goes on a brewing stand. Use an empty bottle on a bee nest or a beehive that is dripping honey to bottle the honey. Glass bottles stack to sixty-four.
