Required Materials to make an Arrow
In Minecraft, these are the materials you can use to craft an arrow:
1 Stick
1 Flint
1 Feather How to craft an Arrow in Survival Mode
1. Open the Crafting Menu
First, open your crafting table so that you have the 3x3 crafting grid that looks like this:

2. Add Items to make an Arrow
In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3x3 crafting grid. To make an arrow, place 1 flint, 1 stick, and 1 feather in the 3x3 crafting grid.
When making an arrow, it is important that the flint, the stick, and the feather are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. In the first row, there should be 1 flint placed in the middle box. In the second row, there should be 1 stick placed in the middle box. In the third row, there should be 1 feather placed in the middle box. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for arrows.

Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the 4 arrows will appear in the box to the right.

3. Move the Arrow to Inventory
Once you have crafted arrows, you need to move the new items to your inventory.

Congratulations, you have made an arrow in Minecraft!
