Pink Bed
Pink Bed skips the night and sets your spawn point (where you reappear after dying); the recipe takes three Pink Wool and three planks.
Description
Using a Pink Bed at night (in-game sky light 11 or below) or during a thunderstorm skips the night: the player lies in the bed for 101 ticks (5.05 seconds), and once all players in the world sleep at the same time, the time jumps to sunrise. Falling entities bounce off a Pink Bed with 75% of the impact velocity, and the halved fall distance means slightly less than half of the normal fall damage. Villagers claim beds at night and need spare beds to produce offspring, so a base around villagers needs more beds than players.

How to craft a Pink Bed in Minecraft
-
1
Open the 3×3 crafting grid
Use a crafting table to open the 3×3 grid that the Pink Bed recipe requires.
-
2
Place three Pink Wool on top
Fill the entire top row with Pink Wool; the wool color decides the bed color.
-
3
Place three planks below
Fill the bottom row with three planks of any wood — mixed woods work — and collect the finished Pink Bed.
-
4
Dye an existing bed pink
Put any bed together with Pink Dye on a crafting grid to receive a Pink Bed without hunting for Pink Wool.
-
5
Place and use the Pink Bed
Set the Pink Bed on two free floor blocks and use the bed at night to sleep and set the spawn point.
A Pink Bed used in the Nether or the End explodes with power 5 — stronger than TNT — and sets surrounding blocks on fire.

Frequently asked questions
Why does the game refuse to let me sleep in my Pink Bed?
Hostile mobs within 8 blocks of the bed head horizontally, or 5 blocks vertically, block sleeping; clear the mobs or move the Pink Bed to a sealed room.
Can a Pink Bed set my spawn point during the day?
Yes. Using a Pink Bed in the daytime sets the spawn point without entering the bed, and chat confirms the change with a message about the respawn point.
What happens if I stop sleeping for several days?
Phantoms spawn above a player who has not entered a bed for 3 in-game days, so nightly use of a Pink Bed keeps phantoms away.
Does a Pink Bed survive fire and lava?
Fire never destroys a Pink Bed because beds are not flammable; in Java Edition lava destroys the bed, and in Bedrock Edition lava leaves the bed intact.
How close must I stand to a Pink Bed to sleep in it?
Within 3 blocks in Java Edition or 2 blocks in Bedrock Edition; from farther away the game reports that the bed is too far.
