Presenting a bar logo? Put it on this round coaster mockup and the client sees the real thing, not a flat file.
Breweries and bars tend to get the most out of files like this. One thing worth knowing: if the paper has texture, drop the opacity of your art by a few percent so the grain shows through.
It also makes a good cover image for a Behance or Dribbble post, where the first thumbnail decides whether anyone clicks. For a complete brand board, show it next to a business card and a notebook.
Zippypixels created this one and hosts the download on their own site, so you always get the latest version straight from the source.
Round Coaster Mockups: editable parts
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Your design, placed through the smart object
- Paper or background colour
- Paper texture you can turn up or down
How to use the Round Coaster Mockups
- Export your artwork as a high-resolution PNG or JPG, around 300 ppi at print size.
- 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 with File › Export › Export As: JPG for sharing, PNG for the web.
Worth remembering: dark designs often look flat on paper mockups. Turning the highlight layer up slightly brings back the sheen.

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this coaster mockup for client work?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Zippypixels. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the coaster?
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.
Can I show both sides?
It depends on the file. Many print mockups include a front and a back smart object; the preview usually shows whether both sides are visible.
