Decorating Builds with New Blocks and Missing Vanilla Shapes

Curiosities Mod expands your building palette by adding brand-new block families while filling in missing stair, slab, and wall variants for existing vanilla materials.

Crafting New Decorative Blocks

Open your crafting table or stonecutter to access new textures using standard materials you already gather:

• Wood and Stone Upgrades: Turn vanilla wood types into Fancied Planks, and convert classic stones into Ashlar brick blocks or smooth stone bricks.
• Industrial Interiors: Use aluminum to craft industrial, office-style decorative blocks for clean, modern rooms.
• Exteriors and Lighting: Incorporate Laterite blocks for earthy structural accents, and place Tiki Torches around pathways, gardens, and outdoor builds for themed lighting.

Using Missing Vanilla Variants

If you have ever hit a wall trying to detail vanilla stone builds, check the recipe book or stonecutter when working with materials like prismarine and quartz. The mod adds the missing stairs, slabs, and walls for classic stone types so you can shape roofs, trims, and pillars smoothly without switching block palettes.
