How to Build with Colored Wood Sets and Custom Lighting

Vivid Fabric and Flora Mod expands your building palette by providing full color sets of wooden blocks alongside modern lighting options for your base.

Using Colored Wood Variants

Instead of relying only on standard vanilla wood tones, you can craft and build with full color sets of wooden planks. Every color set includes matching structural and redstone components, so you do not have to mix mismatched materials in a colored build.

1. Gather or craft your chosen color of wooden planks.

2. Use a crafting table to turn those planks into matching stairs and slabs for roofing, flooring, or trim.

3. Craft matching fences and fence gates in the same color to enclose yards, balconies, or pathways.

4. Create matching buttons and pressure plates from the colored planks to wire up doors and redstone contraptions that blend into your walls.

Crafting and Placing Ceiling Lights

To brighten up the interiors of your builds without placing torches on the floor, you can craft dedicated ceiling light blocks.

1. Gather glowstone from the Nether or sea lanterns from Ocean Monuments to use as your base lighting ingredients.

2. Check your recipe book at a crafting table to combine your glowstone or sea lanterns into the mod's ceiling light blocks.

3. Place the finished ceiling light blocks directly into the roof or upper trim of your home base to illuminate the room below.
