How to craft Beehive in Minecraft

Collect 6x Planks

Planks are the common item in Minecraft. You can easily craft them by using 1x Log/Stripped Log/Wood/Stripped Wood in the crafting grid to get 4x Planks.

Planks are usually generated in Minecraft structures like Mineshafts, Villages, Strongholds, Woodland mansions, Shipwrecks, Swamp huts, Underwater ruins, and pillagers outposts.

You can also find Oak Planks in looted chests in the village. They have a super high chance to contain 1-12x Oak Planks.

Collect 3x Honeycomb

Honeycomb is a unique item in Minecraft. They can only be obtained by using a shear on a Bee Nest or Beehive. If the honey level of them is 5, you can get 3x Honeycomb from a single use of shear.

If you don’t want to get attacked by bees while harvesting the Honeycomb, put a campfire or a fire below the Beehive to chase the bees away.

You can also use a dispenser with a shear inside to automatically harvest the Honeycomb.

Finish off crafting a Beehive

When you have 6x Planks and 3x Honeycomb, right-click the crafting table and put 3x Honeycomb in the middle line, then fill the rest with Planks to craft 1x Beehive.
