Need to show a gift candle box to a client? This round candle tin mockup does the job in a few minutes. The tin finish gives the preview a tactile look that flat artwork doesn’t have.
Etsy sellers and home fragrance brands tend to get the most out of files like this. A small tip: transparent or glass items show the background through. Test your label on the actual background colour you’ll use.
Labels behave differently once they wrap around a shape, and this is where you find out if yours still reads.
This is a free file from Pixpine. When you click download you’ll land on their page to grab it.
What you can edit in this Round Candle Tin Mockup
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Label artwork, placed through the smart object
- Highlights and reflections
- Background colour
- Shadows
Add your design to the Round Candle Tin Mockup
- Prepare the label with a little space around the edges for the highlights.
- Open the file in Photoshop and double-click the smart object thumbnail in the Layers panel.
- Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
- Change the background to your brand colour.
- Export with File › Export › Export As: JPG for sharing, PNG for the web.
Worth remembering: metallic and glossy finishes look best with a little contrast in the label; very flat pastel labels can look printed on paper.

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this candle mockup for client work?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Pixpine. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the candle?
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 liquid or container colour?
Most bottle, can and cup mockups keep the container colour on its own layer. Liquid colour, where visible, is usually adjustable too.
Why does the download open another website?
