To create your own enchanted book in Minecraft, follow these steps:
- Craft an enchanting table: To craft an enchanting table, you will need 4 obsidian blocks, 2 diamonds, and 1 book. Place the book in the center of the first row, the diamonds on either side of the second row, and the obsidian blocks in the center of the second row and across the third row in the crafting grid[1].
- Set up bookshelves: To unlock higher level enchantments, you need to place 15 bookshelves around the enchanting table, leaving a one-block space between the bookshelves and the table[2].
- Gather lapis lazuli: You will need lapis lazuli to enchant items. You can find lapis lazuli by mining lapis lazuli ore underground[3].
- Open the enchanting table: Right-click on the enchanting table to open the enchant menu[3].
- Place the book and lapis lazuli: In the enchant menu, place the book in the first box and 3 lapis lazuli in the second box. In Creative mode, you do not need to place the lapis lazuli[3].
- Choose an enchantment: The enchanting table will offer you three enchantment options, each with a different level requirement and enchantment. Hover over each option to see the enchantment and required level. The higher your experience level, the better the enchantments you can choose[3].
- Enchant the book: Click on the enchantment option you want to apply to the book. This will consume the lapis lazuli and some of your experience levels, and the book will become an enchanted book with the chosen enchantment[3].
Now you have an enchanted book in Minecraft! You can use this book to enchant items like tools, weapons, and armor by combining the enchanted book with the item in an anvil[4].
