First, you can’t just poke a flower into the ground and call it a pot. That’s chaos. We’re civilized miners here. You need three bricks—the kind you make by smelting clay balls in a furnace.
Clay balls are those grey, smooth lumps you find underwater in rivers and shallow lakes. They look like sad little pebbles, but they’re the foundation of your masterpiece.
Waddle over to your furnace, toss in a clay ball with any fuel (coal, wood, a stray sapling you're annoyed at), and bam—you get a brick. Repeat this two more times. You now have three bricks.
Wait, Can I Cheat and Find Bricks?
Absolutely not. Have you no pride? Okay, fine, you can sometimes find bricks in village mason houses or in the chest of a ruined portal. But where’s the fun in that? You want to earn your pot, right? Right.
Also, you might be tempted to use the block called “bricks” (the full block). Don’t. That’s like using a whole cake to make a single cupcake. You need the item “brick.”
