If you’re wondering how to make banners in Minecraft, you’re not alone. There are quite a few possibilities for banner styles, but most of them are not easily achievable. Basic banners can be made in one color and placed around, but the fun, exciting ones are much harder to make. Fortunately, this guide will help point you in the right direction when it comes to designing banners.

To make any banner, you must first start at the crafting table. To make a plain one, put six wool of the same color and a stick into the user interface. It doesn’t matter the color, as any color can be made into a banner. This locks in the base color of the banner, though. From there, you can place a banner into a loom. This allows you to customize it and add colors and patterns to it.
There are different indicators on the loom that tell you which section of the banner you’re editing. There is a top, middle, and bottom third. Additionally, there is also a left, right, and middle third horizontally. When you’re operating in one of these areas, the dye color you add to the banner will show up there. For example, a blue banner will have a red stripe across the top if you place red dye in that sector in the loom.
You can do this multiple times. If you want to split the top third into three different colors, you can. Just remove the banner at each step and add the appropriate colors to each sector to get the desired result. You can also do this for sections in the crafting table, but this requires a lot more dye and is far less customizable. In the crafting table, certain items will also affect the pattern:
Banners can also be found organically. Plenty of unique banners spawn all across a Minecraft world. They can be found in the following places:
These can often be customized further, though the Pillager Banner cannot be placed in a loom. The possibilities are almost limitless, as you can pretty much make any pattern you can conceive of as long as it mostly centers on blocky Minecraft designs.
