How to make an End Portal Frame in Minecraft

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft an end portal frame with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

Traditionally, if you want to travel to the End dimension, you will look for a Stronghold in your world and then complete the End Portal there. However, it is much quicker to build your own End Portal using end portal frames.

An end portal frame is an item that you can not make with a crafting table or furnace. It is only available through the Creative Inventory menu or by using a game command to give yourself one.
