# Colors You can change the **Colors** of elements across your store, including general colors, header colors, footer colors, and product colors. Theme colors apply to all sections and pages by default. You can apply specific colors to most sections and blocks in the theme editor. Colors selected for sections and blocks will override theme colors. In the theme editor, click the **Theme settings** icon, then click to open the **Colors** tab. {% hint style="info" %} **Tip |** We recommend using WebAIM's [contrast checker](https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/) when matching colors to make sure your text is clear and readable for everyone. {% endhint %} ## **General** The General colors have the following settings: **Background** The background on all pages including the home page.
