An enamel pin design looks better on a pin button mockup than on a white artboard, and this mockup is set up for exactly that.
Merch sellers and campaign teams tend to get the most out of files like this. Keep your artwork simple. Small objects shrink details quickly, so a bold mark reads better than fine lines.
Small branded items are often the part of an identity that clients remember, so it’s worth showing them properly. Group it with other merch mockups for a branded items slide.
Good for
- An enamel pin design

What you can edit in this Pin Button Mockup
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Logo or artwork, placed through the smart object
- Shadows
- Background colour
- Object colour, where included
How to edit this Pin Button Mockup in Photoshop
- Simplify the design a little; fine details get lost on small objects.
- Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
- Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
- Export with File › Export › Export As: JPG for sharing, PNG for the web.
One more thing: change the background colour to your brand palette; it does more for the final image than people expect.
