You can add vines to your inventory in Survival mode by clipping vines from a tree using a pair of shears. So, let’s get started!

2. Hold your Shears
Next, place your shears in your hand by selecting them in the hotbar.

The game control to use the shears to clip the vines from the tree depends on the version of Minecraft:

You will need to continue to clip with the shears until the vines fall from the tree.

Vines are a useful item and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
