How to Craft Green Bed in Minecraft

Green Bed in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own block model. Setting spawn point. Minecraft has used the name Green Bed since 1.12.

Bring 3 Green Wool and 3 Planks to a Crafting Table and you have a Green Bed. Its pattern is three Green Wool filling the top row and three Planks filling the bottom row. Each attempt hands back 1 Green Bed. Green Beds do not stack, so each one takes an inventory slot of its own.

Green Bed Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Green Bed is minecraft:green_bed. In commands the namespace may be left off, so green_bed works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p green_bed
Give several at once
/give @p green_bed 5
Give it to a named player
/give Steve green_bed 1

Cheats have to be on for Green Bed to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.

Overview

Green Beds set your respawn point and skip the night when slept in. They explode if used in the Nether or End. Green Bed uses a shaped recipe: the ingredients only work in the pattern shown.

Minecraft has used the name Green Bed since 1.12, the oldest release whose language file lists it.

The materials come together from a few sources: you will be working with green wool (dye wool or shear green sheep) and planks (craft from logs).

What A Stack Yields

Work a stack down, 64 green wool, and you land on 21 green beds. On top of that: 63 planks. That leaves 1 green wool with no partner.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to craft a Green Bed in Minecraft?
a Green Bed asks for 3 Green Wool and 3 Planks, and the work happens at a Crafting Table. Arrange them in the exact grid pattern shown above, and one craft produces one Green Bed.
Can you craft a Green Bed without a crafting table?
The inventory grid is too small for a Green Bed, so you need a table. It is laid out as three Green Wool filling the top row and three Planks filling the bottom row, and that takes 3 columns, more than the 2x2 grid in your inventory can hold.
Where do you find the materials for a Green Bed?
The materials for a Green Bed each come from somewhere different. Green Wool: dye wool or shear green sheep. Planks: craft from logs.
How many Green Beds do you get from one craft?
The Green Bed recipe makes one Green Bed per craft.
What is the item ID for Green Bed in Minecraft?
Green Bed is registered as minecraft:green_bed. Commands accept the short form green_bed as well, and Bedrock spells it the same. Checked against Java 26.2.
What is the give command for Green Bed?
Use /give @p green_bed to put a Green Bed in your own inventory. Add a number on the end for more than one, and note that cheats have to be on.
What version of Minecraft added the Green Bed?
Minecraft 1.12 is the earliest release that spells out green bed. The recipe file cannot narrow that down, because recipes only became separate files in 1.12. The current release still makes a Green Bed exactly that way.
