PC Neat Table Lamp/Lantern Trick

[Old Crow]

Take over a POI with unlit table lamps, or decided to make some for decoration and got disappointed find they don't light up? Have I got the trick for you!

My buddy discovered this on our multiplayer server. You can craft a lantern (Art of Mining Vol. 7) and place it IN the lamp and voila! Instant lamp! It actually looks pretty good and doesn't seem intrusive.

Enjoy!

Candles are a good option too, a little less harsh light

I prefer sticking the lanterns to the ceiling upside down, but I'm generally very practical about my base designs, so no fancy stuff, just barren utility.

But the "inside lamp trick" is indeed very neat, if you're more into decorating stuff.

Cool find!

Spoiler

sooo...sniffing around in Madmole's place, huh?

It does require blocks to one side of the end table because how this works is the lantern gets "glued" to the block beside it, but probably not every bug like this needs to be fixed, it does look nice .
