You can use the MouseEnter and MouseLeave events as in

Private Sub Button1_MouseEnter(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.MouseEnter
    Button1.Tag = Button1.BackColor
    Button1.BackColor = Color.Blue
End Sub

Private Sub Button1_MouseLeave(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.MouseLeave
    Button1.BackColor = Button1.Tag
End Sub

In this example I use the Tag property to save the original colour so it can be restored on MouseLeave.
