About this Mod

A colorful little mod with a variety of familiar light sources with a shiny new coat of paint on them to make them perfect for personalising your builds with any colour scheme you could ever want!
So far this mod contains only a few light sources in every colour Minecraft dyes have to offer, those being:
- White
- Light grey
- Grey
- Black
- Brown
- Red
- Orange
- Yellow
- Lime
- Green
- Cyan
- Light blue

And the blocks with these coloured variants are:
- Torches – Simply made by putting a dye of your choosing above a stick, no coal needed!
- Lanterns – Surround a dyed torch of your choosing with iron nuggets.
- Candles – Right click a candle of any colour with a dye and they will start burning the corresponding flames no matter what colour the candles are, feel free to mix and match!
- Glowstone – Made with 3 glowstone dust and a dye of your choice in a square.
- Sea lanterns - Made by adding any dye to a sea lantern to give it any colour you like.
- End rods - Made by adding dye and an end rod together, very simple. However doing so will only dye the tip, if you want the bottom to be a different colour simply right click the block once it is placed with a dye of your choice to give it any colour bottom you like!
