Dyes can be used to alter the colors of some mobs. One of the most useful mobs to color are Sheep. Dyeing sheep a certain color changes the color of the wool they produce.
Other mobs may also be colored. Tamed Dogs and Cats will have their collars change color when dyed.
Several blocks may also be dyed to alter their colors. On a Crafting table, place the color of dye you'd like in the center, surrounding it with the block you'd like colored. This works for blocks such as Glass, Glass Panes, and Terracotta.
For other blocks such as Shulker Boxes or Beds, you'll only need one dye, and one of the aforementioned items to change their colors.
Several Oak Signs with Text dyed to the listed color.
Dyes may also be used to change the color of text on signs. Keep in mind that readability may suffer depending on the type of wood used to make the sign.
Colored Concrete Powder is required to create colored Concrete Blocks. These are crafted with a combination of sand, gravel, and the appropriate dye.
Using Ink Sac to add Black Vertical Lines on a Yellow Banner
Dyes may also be used with Banners on a Loom to apply different designs and patterns. Patterns will be printed on a banner with the dye's color.
