Block-placing wands are special tools that allow the player to place blocks they would normally not be able to place. They do not consume any mana. Each wand consumes a specific material from the player's inventory (details listed below). There are currently 6 / 4 different block-placing wands.

The Bone Wand places Bone Blocks at the cost of one Bone per block, which can be mined back as bones. On the PC version, Console version, Mobile version, and tModLoader version, the block can be mined back as Bone, whereas on the Old-gen console version, Windows Phone version, Old Chinese version, Nintendo version, and tModLoader 1.3-Legacy version, the placed blocks remain as Bone Blocks even if later mined and do not return to normal Bone. The Bone Wand has a 0.4*1/250 (0.4%) chance to drop from Angry Bones, Dark Casters, and Cursed Skulls, which spawn in the Dungeon.

The Hive Wand places Hives as blocks, which otherwise cannot be placed. Hives must be in the player's inventory in order to place them. It has a 33.33*1/3 (33.33%) chance to be dropped by Queen Bee.
Mining a Hive block placed with the Hive Wand is the same as mining a naturally generated one, hence it can spawn Bees or honey.
The Hive Wand resembles a Honey Dipper, a utensil used for viscous liquids such as honey in real life.
