    Mending is a Treasure enchantment, which means it can only be found rather than crafted.
    • You can find Mending in jungle temple chests, stronghold chests, and ancient city chests. You may also find it by fishing , fighting raids, or trading with a librarian villager. [1]
    • The Mending enchantment uses experience points to restore the durability of an item.
