If the color of all the cells the problem is very simple, just set its background color and possibly 'setOpaque(true)'.

If u want diff color for each cell, u will need to keep the color of cell alongwith the cell value. And creating a simple CellRenderer will show the background color of that cell to specified color. This cell renderer can be just a JLabel having code to set the text (value of cell) and the background color (color of cell). Do setOpaque(true) so that JLabel will paint background.
