To make paper, you first need to make a Crafting Table in Minecraft.


The next step is to find some sugar cane in the game. To make one piece of paper, you need 3 sugar cane.

It is best to collect the sugar cane you find and then proceed to make a sugar cane farm from there, for ease and accessibility later.

This block grows incredibly quick and can grow up to 4 blocks tall, so collecting enough for any project will not be too difficult.

Once you have collected enough sugar cane, you can place down your crafting table to make the paper.
