What's inside

  • Applications Photoshop
  • File Types PSD
  • License Free (see author's terms)
  • Author Ls.Graphics

If you’re presenting a gift box design, this empty box mockup makes the idea feel real before anything is produced.

Useful for packaging designers as much as for e-commerce brands. One thing worth knowing: check barcodes, weights and small legal text at 100% zoom. Packaging clients always look for those.

It’s also handy for crowdfunding pages and pitch decks, when the product exists but the packaging hasn’t been printed yet.

This is a free file from Ls.Graphics. When you click download you’ll land on their page to grab it.

What you can edit in this Empty Box Mockup

The PSD is layered, so you can change:

  • Label or box artwork, placed through the smart object
  • Background colour
  • Shadows

Add your design to the Empty Box Mockup

  1. Export each side of the pack as its own image if the file has separate smart objects.
  2. In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
  3. Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
  4. Change the base colour of the pack.
  5. Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.

Render two colour versions side by side. Clients choose faster when they compare.

Questions about this mockup

What licence does it come with?

That depends on the author's terms. The download page lists what is allowed; when in doubt, ask the author directly.

How do I put my artwork on the box?

Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.

Which Photoshop version do I need?

A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.

Is the design wrapped around the shape?

Round packs usually use warp or displacement so the label bends with the shape. Flat boxes use separate smart objects for each visible side.
