If you’re anything like me, the look and feel of a planner can completely change how motivated you feel to use it. Some weeks I want something calm and minimal, other weeks I’m drawn to bold, colourful pages that make planning feel a bit more fun. That’s exactly why I put together this collection of 20 unique color palettes for planners – so you can switch things up depending on your mood, your goals, or even the season.
Inside this set, you’ll find a mix of soft, muted tones like ocean blues and sage greens, alongside brighter palettes like bold rainbow and berry-inspired combinations. Each palette has been carefully put together so the colours actually work together on the page (no clashing, no guessing), making it easy to design a planner spread that looks clean, cohesive, and genuinely enjoyable to use.
Whether you’re creating your own printable planner, decorating a bullet journal, or just want some inspiration for your next layout, these palettes are designed to be practical as well as beautiful. You can use them for headers, sections, trackers, or even full page themes (whatever fits your planning style).
To get started, simply choose your favourite palette below and start experimenting. You can screenshot, print, or match the hex codes digitally depending on how you like to plan. Feel free to check out the rest of our color palettes including these awesome green color palettes.
