📚 Colorful Books

4 Books: Book dyed yellow, Written Book dyed lime, Book and Quill dyed cyan & Enchanted book dyed red

🎨 Dyeing & Undyeing

Dye as vanilla does it! Combine dyes with a Book, Book and Quill, Written Book or Enchanted Book in crafting grid to give it a splash of color. Wash off your dye by using a dyed book on a Cauldron with water in it. Don't worry, the ink of your written pages won't come off! 2 GUIs: Inventory, where a Book and Quill is combined with Purple Dye to dye it & Crafting Table, where an already dyed Book is combined with White, Blue & Yellow dye to give it a unique tint. Outside of the GUIs: Ari is looking down at her hands, Steve is looking at a Crafting Table & Sunny is washing the dye of a book in a Water Cauldron

✒️ Lectern, Writing & Librarian

Write with color! Book and Quills & Written Books which are dyed will display their dye on a Lectern or in their respective GUIs for everyone to see. Librarians will still accept dyed books for their Trades, and even keep the dye! 2 GUIs: Book and Quill, on the sign page, showing the black cover of the book & Villager Trading, where the select trade is converting a book into an enchanted book. Outside of the GUIs: Efe signing a black Book and Quill, a Librarian looking confused at her & a Lectern displaying a Red Book

✨ Enchanting Table & Chiseled Bookshelves

Display with pride! When crafting an Enchanting Table with a dyed book, the Enchanting Table will display a dyed book in the world and in the GUI. Chiseled Bookshelves will also display the color of their books, allowing you to organize and decorate! 2 GUIs: Enchanting Table GUI, with an Iron Sword & 5 Lapis, the book is green & Crafting Table where an Enchanting Table is crafted with a pink dyed book. Outside of GUIs: Makena is standing by Chiseled Bookshelves with differently coloured books in it, she is looking at a Green dyed book ontop of the Enchanting Table. Alex is standing behind the chiseled bookshelves, looking at a Crafting Table

🏦 Enchanted Books & Loot

Enchant with mysteriouly colorful books! Enchanted Books found as Loot will be dyed based on their Enchantments. If a book has multiple enchantments, it will blend them!
