Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 10:43 pm

As a business owner, you know that social media is a powerful tool to reach new customers and grow your brand. And as a Canva user, you also know that Canva is a powerful tool for creating beautiful designs.

So how do you combine the two? How do you get social media icons on Canva?

First, let’s start with the basics. Social media icons are simply small images that represent different social media platforms. They’re usually recognisable by their logos, and they help people to quickly identify which social media accounts they can find you on.

Now that we’ve got that out of the way, let’s get into how you can get social media icons onto your Canva designs. The great thing about Canva is that there’s no need to be a graphic designer to create stunning designs – the platform is easy to use and comes with built-in templates and tools that make design simple.

One way to get social media icons onto your Canva designs is to use one of the many built-in icon templates. To do this, simply click on the ‘Templates’ tab at the top of the Canva editor, then select ‘Icons’ from the left-hand menu. This will bring up a range of different icon designs that you can customise to match your brand.

Another way to add social media icons to your Canva designs is to create them from scratch using shapes and lines. This method gives you more control over the design of your icons, but it does require a little more design knowledge.

To get started, click on the ‘Shapes’ tab in the top menu, then select ‘Lines’ from the left-hand menu. From here, you can start drawing out your own social media icons using simple shapes.

Once you’re happy with your icons, it’s time to add them to your design. To do this, simply click and drag each icon into place.

You can also use the alignment tools to make sure they’re placed perfectly. And that’s it! You’ve now successfully added social media icons to your Canva design.

There are two main ways to add social media icons onto your Canva designs – using built-in templates or creating them from scratch using shapes and lines. Whichever method you choose, simply follow the steps outlined above and you’ll be able to add these essential elements to your design in no time at all.

PRO TIP: If you are looking for a way to add social media icons to your Canva account, be warned that this is not possible. Canva does not currently offer any way to add social media icons to your designs. This means that if you want to share your designs on social media, you will need to do so manually by sharing a link or screenshot.
