01 / Intro

Spin for a named color with hex from 20 defaults. Use it for color-of-the-day and limited-palette art, fair team colors on a projected board, or one accent when the layout is already set. Filter Warm, Cool, or Neutrals — or edit any slice to a custom name or #RRGGBB.

Same pools as the Warm / Cool / Neutrals filters. Name, hex, RGB, and a practical best-for note for art, class, and accents — not color psychology.

03 / Ways to use this

Ways to use this color wheel

Copy-paste playbooks from how people actually run color spinners in class, art, and design.

3-color art challenge

Spin three times and hide each winner. Make a sketch, painting, or digital piece using only those three colors. Limits beat staring at a full palette.

Color-of-the-day / scavenger hunt

One spin for the class or stream. Find or draw something that color — or name five things that are. Works as a warm-up or color-name practice for younger kids.

Team or player colors

Project the wheel. Spin once per team or player, then hide that color before the next spin so nobody re-rolls Blue. Visible fairness is the point.

One accent for a stuck layout

Filter Cool or Neutrals if the brand already has a primary. Spin once — that color is the button, link, or highlight only. Do not rebuild the whole palette from one spin.

05 / FAQ

FAQs about the Colors wheel

Can I put hex codes on the color slices?

Yes. Edit any option to a #RRGGBB value (for example #FF5733) or a custom name. The wheel spins from whatever is currently active, so you can mix brand hexes with the defaults.

How do I assign unique team or player colors?

Spin once per team or player, then hide (or remove) that color before the next spin so nobody gets a repeat. Project the page so everyone sees the same result land.

Are the odds equal after Warm / Cool / Neutrals?

Yes, for active (visible) slices with equal weights. Filtering only changes which colors are in the pool — each remaining color still has the same chance.

How many colors should I leave on the wheel?

The default 20 works for exploration. For readable slices, about 6–18 is comfortable. For team assignment, fewer is better — filter to Warm/Cool/Neutrals or hide colors as you go.
