Build with It: Lapis!

You could take a more subtle approach as well because we know the bright blue may not fit the rest of your design dreams. Still, if you’re dreaming of some sparkly ways to break up your stone builds, try using the ore inside your build as an accent like TommyPusherMC has done here below.

Lapis can be used in all kinds of builds that need a blue hue. A tried and true style, you could use it within classic magic and fantasy castles or perhaps to represent a detour to the stars and beyond with a sci-fi motif. Don’t feel like building underwater with some of our more recent Build With It suggestions like prismarine and coral? Why not pay homage to your aquatic-themed dreams on land by using lapis to represent the ocean?

Grab your mining gear, clear up your inventory space, and spend some time collecting as much lapis as you can carry because after you’ve stocked up, get ready to rock this block in all kinds of ways. We’ve included a few of these stylish community builds we received to help provide some inspiration.
