Coaster Mockup Templates

Coasters are a small product with surprisingly broad design potential. They show up in home decor shops, bar merchandise, wedding favors, corporate gifts, and online shops selling everything from funny quotes to custom pet portraits. The surface area is limited, but that constraint pushes designers toward bold, clean compositions that often make great mockup images.

Options span round coasters, square coasters, hexagonal coasters, and custom die-cut shapes. Materials represented include ceramic tile, cork, sandstone, rubber-backed, leather, wooden, and acrylic coasters. You'll find single coaster close-ups, stacked sets of four or six, coasters in use on table surfaces with drinks, and flat-lay arrangements showing the full set design.

Material rendering is what gives coaster mockups their personality. A cork coaster shows the natural grain and slightly rough surface that absorbs lighter print colors. A ceramic tile coaster has a glossy finish with sharp reflections and vibrant color reproduction. Sandstone coasters show the porous, absorbent surface that gives prints a slightly vintage, desaturated look. Each material dramatically changes how the same design appears.

Smart objects handle the print area - drop your design into the flat template and the mockup applies the material texture overlay. On round coasters, the circular crop is automatic. On die-cut shapes, the coaster outline follows the template contour. The cork or rubber backing is visible in stacked and angled views, adding dimensional realism.

Editable layers include:

• Top surface print (smart object)
• Material texture intensity (overlay opacity)
• Cork or rubber backing color
• Edge finish - beveled, straight, rounded
• Background surface - wood table, bar top, marble counter

Given the small product size, that's more than enough resolution for sharp detail. Fine illustration work, small text, and intricate patterns render crisply at the mockup's native dimensions.

The market segments nicely: home decor sellers on marketplaces (Etsy, Redbubble, Society6), wedding planners (custom coasters as table favors), bars and breweries (branded drink coasters), corporate gift companies (logo coasters for client giveaways), and illustrators and artists selling coaster sets as an art product line.

One thing worth keeping in mind: always show coasters with a drink on or beside them. A coaster sitting alone on a white background is just a printed disk. A coaster on a wooden bar top with a condensation-ringed glass creates context and shows the product in use, which makes a much stronger listing image.

What coaster shapes and materials are available?

Round, square, hexagonal, and custom die-cut shapes. Materials include ceramic tile, cork, sandstone, rubber-backed, leather, wooden, and acrylic. Each material has its own texture characteristics that affect how your design appears.

Does the material texture show through the print?

Material texture overlays are applied to the print area with adjustable intensity. Cork grain, sandstone porosity, and ceramic gloss each interact differently with your design, matching how the real printed product would actually look.

Are stacked coaster set presentations available?

Templates include stacked sets of four or six coasters, showing cork backing on the edges. This is useful for sellers offering coaster sets, where showing the full collection and the backing material matters for the listing image.
