COLOR_CHOICES = (
    ('green','GREEN'),
    ('blue', 'BLUE'),
    ('red','RED'),
    ('orange','ORANGE'),
    ('black','BLACK'),
)

class MyModel(models.Model):
  color = models.CharField(max_length=6, choices=COLOR_CHOICES, default="green")

forms.py

class MyModelForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        fields = ['color']

views.py

class CreateMyModelView(CreateView):
    model = MyModel
    form_class = MyModelForm
    template_name="myapp/template.html"
    success_url="myapp/success.html"

template.html

<form action="" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
