Building with it

A Light Blue Bed wants three light blue wool, dyed from a swamp orchid or from blue mixed with white. It behaves like every other bed: it skips the night, it sets your spawn, and it detonates in the Nether. The colour is a common pick for builds that already use light blue glass in the windows.

In practice

Sleeping resets your spawn point whether or not the night passes, so a bed placed in a mine is worth the wool even if you never sleep in it. Light blue is the softest colour of the set, which is why it is the usual choice for a bedroom that is meant to look calm.
