Canva is constantly growing its features and offerings within the graphic design website. Out of these features, we want to share one that sticks out to us!

Today, we are spilling everything you need to know about Canva's MockUp feature tool, including how to use it, why you should use it, and what you can actually use it for. Let's get started!

How To Use Canva's MockUp Tool

  1. Under Canva's "Apps" you can select or search for "MockUps" to find the icon pictured below.

  2. Select a MockUp Design that you like.

  3. Drag & drop an uploaded photo or design into the space.

  4. Adjust the placement of your photo using the crop, fit, and align options.

Why Use Canva's MockUp Feature:

Visualize Designs

Taking a step back from the design and seeing it in a more realistic way can help with inspo, and visualization, and even help you see it from a fresh perspective.

Test Out Your Designs

Raise your hand if you've ever thought, "Wow, that looked better in my head..." Taking the design out of your imagination and onto a physical format allows you to test it out.

Efficiency

Canva's mockup tool allows you to create mockups with ease. There's no telling how long it could take us to make it all from scratch. With a few simple clicks, you can create a realistic-looking mockup in no time.

What To Use Canva's MockUp Feature for:

Create Custom Graphics for Social Media

If you haven't had a chance to do a photography shoot yet or have a service or online shop that's a little tricky to capture in graphics, this feature will be able to turn it into a professional graphic in a few easy clicks.

Proposals

Clients and customers might not always picture exactly what you mean, and this is the perfect way to put that into perspective.

(we know it goes without saying, but...) Mockups

If you want to test out a new look and want to see it in a more visual format, use this feature as an interactive mockup to test out an idea.

Now that you've learned how, why, and what to use Canva's mockup feature for, we hope you can put this to good use in your designs moving forward.
