Gathering Materials

  1. Before you start designing, you need to decide what you want to design. Check out YouTube videos of other Minecraft kitchen designs and showroom photos of actual kitchens. This will give you an idea of what type of floors, countertops, and colors you want to add.
  2. Decide what material you want to make your floors and counters out of. You'll most likely need lots of wood. You need to make buttons, trap doors, some colored wool, etc.
    • Consider switching to Creative Mode. In Creative Mode, you won't earn any achievements or trophies, but you'll have all the resources you need already in the crafting menu. You won't have to gather materials or worry about dying and losing everything you've gathered.

  3. You'll need lots of wood. Wood is used to make everything from the floors, counters, shelves, tables, and chairs. You'll also need trapdoors and pressure plates which can be used to craft stovetops, tabletops, and the sides of chairs.
    • Keep in mind that different types of trees produce different color wood. Oak and Birch trees produce lighter color wood. Dark oak and spruce have a darker color. Jungle wood and acacia have a reddish tint to it.
  4. You don't need a crafting table to craft wooden planks. Just have wood in your inventory, open your crafting menu and select wooden planks.
    • You may also want to craft a few sticks, and then craft wooden fence posts using a crafting table. Fence posts can be used as table legs, and hanging light fixtures.
    • Consider crafting steps from wood planks. Steps can be used as chairs, or as counters and tables when placed upside-down. You can craft steps using 6 wooden plank blocks using a crafting table.
  5. Cobblestone is mined from stone using a pickaxe . Stone can be found underground and alongside mountains.
  6. Stone can be used to make buttons as well as for countertops and floors. Use the following steps to craft stone:
    • Craft a crafting table from the wooden planks you made.
    • Craft a furnace using the crafting table and 8 pieces of cobblestone.
    • Place the furnace and open it.
    • Place cobblestone in the space above the icon that resembles a flame.
    • Place place fuel in the space below the icon that resembles a flame. You can use coal, charcoal, wood, or wooden planks.
    • Wait for the cobblestone to finish cooking and gather your stone from the furnace.
  7. Wool can be used to craft stoves, microwaves, floors, and countertops. It is gathered from sheep. The sheep can be white, black, or gray. You can gather wool from sheep using sheers, or by killing them.
    • If you can't find black, or gray sheep, find squid. Squid live in water. Kill the squid and see if the squid dropped some ink. Once you have some ink, head back to the crafting table, put one white wool in the middle slot of the bottom row, then place the ink on top of it. If you can't get gray wool, put the black wool in the same bottom spot, and put bonemeal on top. Then gather the black wool.
  8. Minecraft has lots of materials that can be used to craft a good looking kitchen. And they're always adding new materials. Below is a list of some items you may want to add to your kitchen and where you can find them:
    • Iron: Iron can be used to craft buttons, cauldrons (for a sink), buckets, and steel doors. Iron ore is mined in caves using a stone pickaxe and then smelted into Iron bars using a furnace.
    • Sand: Sand is found in and alongside rivers and lakes and mined using a shovel. It can be used to craft sandstone, which can be used for counters and floors. It can also be smelted in a furnace to create glass, which can be used for windows.
    • Granite: Granite is a reddish stone found in caves. It can be mined with a pickaxe. You can use a crafting table to craft polished granite from 4 granite blocks.
    • Clay: Clay can be found by mining clay blocks using a shovel in rivers and lakes. It can be used to craft clay blocks and bricks which make great walls and counters.
    • Nether Quartz Block: Nether quartz blocks can be crafted from nether quartz. You get nether quartz by smelting a nether quartz block mined in the nether in a furnace. You can then craft four nether quartz into a nether quartz block using a crafting table.
    • Plants: For some added decoration, consider adding some flowers or plants to your kitchen.

  1. Kitchen floors can be made out of wooden plank blocks, nether quartz blocks, or black and white wool blocks arranged in a checkerboard pattern. Gather the material you need and place them to design the floor.
  2. Place a solid block the color of your stove where you want the stove to be. This can be a solid iron block, smooth stone, quartz, or black or grey wool. Then, place a button so the button looks like the handle of the stove. Place a trapdoor on top of the stove so it looks more like sectioned burners.
    • Alternatively you can craft a furnace using a crafting table and use it as your stove. Then you have a functioning stove.
  3. Place two solid color blocks on top of each other to craft a refrigerator. Then place a button on the top block to act as a handle, or place an iron door over both the blocks to act as a door.
    • Alternatively, make a fridge by putting an iron block, and a dispenser loaded with food, then put a button on the iron block and an iron door.
  4. Counters can be a single block made of wooden planks, sandstone, smooth stone, nether quartz blocks, or polished granite. Make sure all the blocks you choose are a consistent color. Place then in a row against the wall or in the center to act as an island.
    • Alternatively, you can craft steps and place them upside-down to act as a counter.
    • You can also craft wool carpet, trapdoors, or pressure plates and place it on top of the counter to act as a countertop.
  5. Place a solid colored block on a counter where you want the microwave to go. You can then place a trapdoor in front of the microwave and flip it up to look like a microwave door.
  6. You can use a cauldron as a sink. A cauldron is crafted from 7 iron bars using a crafting table. You can even fill it with water using a bucket full of water.
  7. Make the table by putting one fence post on the ground and then a pressure plate on top. Make the chairs by putting one step down and putting two signs beside the steps.
  8. You can craft a hanging light using fence posts. Place two fence posts above the table coming from the ceiling. Place another fence post on all sides of the bottom post. Then place a torch on top of all fence posts sticking out from the bottom post.
