Building with it

Light Blue Stained Glass is the closest the set comes to plain daylight: it tints a room without darkening it, which makes it the usual pick for greenhouse roofs and pool walls. The dye behind it comes from a swamp orchid or from mixing blue with white, and the block drops nothing when broken without Silk Touch.

In practice

Light blue is the glass that reads as sky rather than as water, which is why greenhouse roofs and airship canopies use it more than any other colour. Eight glass around a light blue dye give eight blocks, and the orchid route means no lapis is spent on the dye.
