Lime Carpet

What is Lime Carpet?

Lime Carpet is a decorative block in Minecraft that features a bright, energetic lime-green color with a thin, soft texture. As part of the carpet family, it provides a vibrant and refreshing aesthetic, making it an excellent choice for modern builds, tropical themes, and futuristic interiors. Lime Carpet’s lively tone adds a sense of fun and creativity to any space, offering players a versatile flooring option that brings a pop of color while maintaining a sleek and minimalist appearance. Unlike lime wool, which is a full block, Lime Carpet sits as a thinner layer, allowing for more flexible and efficient floor designs.

Where Can Lime Carpet Be Found?

Lime Carpet does not generate naturally and must be crafted by players. It is created by placing two Lime Wool blocks in a crafting table, yielding three pieces of Lime Carpet. Lime Wool, the primary ingredient, can be obtained by shearing lime-dyed sheep or by combining white wool with lime dye. Lime dye can be crafted by mixing green dye with white dye or by smelting sea pickles found in warm ocean biomes. Some village buildings, especially shepherd houses, may contain Lime Carpet as part of their décor, offering an alternative way to obtain it. More details on crafting and obtaining wool can be found in the Wool article.

Lime Carpet can also be placed on stairs and slabs to add layered textures and can conceal light sources such as glowstone or sea lanterns for hidden lighting solutions.
