Change database color

Last week, while rearranging my workspace, I accidentally discovered a hidden gem in Notion: you can change the colors of database page titles (and some properties). I had always thought it was locked to default black, but it turns out there’s a way to make them rainbow-colored.

And the best part? It’s super easy to set up!

  1. Add your database in a callout
  2. Enter some text in the callout (eg, the name of your database)
  3. Change the color of the text
