Frame Mockup Templates

A framed print looks finished. An unframed design file looks like homework. That gap in perceived value is why frame mockups exist - they transform flat artwork into something a client or buyer can immediately picture hanging on a wall.

Frame styles range from thin gallery frames, chunky rustic wood frames, and ornate vintage frames to floating acrylic frames, clip frames, and frameless borderless mounts. Arrangements include single-frame presentations, two-frame side-by-side comparisons, and multi-frame gallery wall layouts with 3-9 frames in a curated grid or salon-style arrangement.

Every template is a layered PSD with smart object artwork placement. What varies between sets is the room context. Some show the frame against a minimal white wall with soft natural light. Others place the frame in a fully styled interior - above a sofa, over a fireplace mantle, in a bedroom, or in a commercial space like a cafe or office. The room scene is what converts. Buyers on Etsy and Society6 consistently respond better to mockups that show art in a living context rather than floating in white space.

Frame material and finish options include:

• Black metal - contemporary gallery standard
• Natural oak and walnut - warm, Scandinavian aesthetic
• White painted wood - clean, coastal, farmhouse
• Gold and brass - traditional, premium, accent walls
• Raw wood and driftwood - rustic, handmade look
• Acrylic and frameless - modern, minimal

Mat (passepartout) options are editable on most templates. Mat color, width, and even double-mat layering can be adjusted. This matters for fine art and photography prints where mat selection is part of the presentation design. Some templates also show the frame shadow on the wall as a separate adjustable layer - useful for controlling the depth illusion.

Gallery wall arrangements require larger canvases to maintain quality across all frames simultaneously. Single-frame hero shots offer enough detail to zoom into corner joinery and frame grain texture.

Artists, photographers, interior designers, and print-on-demand sellers are the core users. Artists and photographers use frame mockups for portfolio websites and online store listings. Interior designers use them to propose art placement in client spaces. Wall art sellers need them for every listing - framed prints command higher prices than unframed, and a realistic mockup justifies that premium to buyers who want to see the piece on an actual wall before purchasing.

Gallery wall mockups serve a dual purpose: they show how multiple prints look together (useful for series and collection presentations), and they help buyers who want to build a coordinated wall arrangement visualize the final result before purchasing.

What frame styles are included?

Thin gallery frames, rustic wood, ornate vintage, floating acrylic, clip frames, and frameless mounts. Materials range from black metal and natural oak to gold brass and raw driftwood. Most templates allow frame color adjustments.

Are gallery wall arrangements available?

Multi-frame layouts with 3-9 frames are available in grid and salon-style arrangements. Each frame has its own smart object layer, so you can place different artwork in each frame within a single composition.

Can I change the mat color and width?

Most templates include editable mat layers where you can adjust color, width, and even add double-mat layering. Some also have adjustable wall shadow layers for controlling the depth and spacing illusion.

What room scenes are available?

Styles range from minimal white walls to fully styled interiors - above sofas, over fireplaces, in bedrooms, offices, and cafes. The room context varies by mockup set and is designed to match different interior design aesthetics.
