paper-colors

A set of 12 paper colors from various brands.

This was sourced manually and by eye, so all colours are approximate, and the list is not exhaustive in any way. The colors are subject to change (PRs welcome!).

const paperColors = require('paper-colors');

// Select a random color
const color = paperColors[Math.floor(Math.random() * paperColors.length)];

// Get the hex code e.g. '#e5bb57'
console.log(color.hex);

Each color object has the following format:

{
  "name": "Canary",
  "hex": "#e5bb57",
  "brand": "Springhill Opaque"
}

Install

Use npm to install.

npm install paper-colors --save

Usage
