This chopsticks mockup is a quick way to show a logo without a photo shoot.
It’s a handy file for designers and small brands. A small tip: change the background colour to your brand palette; it does more for the final image than people expect.
Small branded items are often the part of an identity that clients remember, so it’s worth showing them properly.
Good for
- A logo
- A pattern
- A product design

Editable options in the Chopsticks Mockup PSD
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Logo or artwork, placed through the smart object
- Shadows
- Background colour
How to use the Chopsticks Mockup
- Prepare the artwork in your brand colours.
- Open the file in Photoshop and double-click the smart object thumbnail in the Layers panel.
- Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
One more thing: keep your artwork simple. Small objects shrink details quickly, so a bold mark reads better than fine lines.
Ways to use this Chopsticks Mockup
- Use it as the cover image for a pattern in your portfolio.
- Make two or three colour versions of a product design and let the client pick.
- Share a logo on Instagram, Behance or Dribbble with a real-looking preview.

Questions about this mockup
What licence does it come with?
Pixpine sets the licence, and it can differ from file to file. Many free files allow personal and commercial use, but some are personal-only or ask for credit. Read the terms on the download page before a paid project.
How do I put my artwork on the mockup?
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.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Can I change the background?
Most object mockups have a background colour or image layer at the bottom of the stack that you can swap.
