Getting started
Quick start
Go from a blank canvas to a live store with ready-to-print products in four core steps.
Overview
This guide walks you through the core workflow every seller follows on MyDesigns: create your artwork, refine it with AI, open a storefront, and publish print-ready products.
Each step below links to a detailed guide, so you can move quickly now and dive deeper whenever you need to.
Step 1: Bring in your design
Start from what you already have, or let AI create it for you. Upload your existing artwork directly to your design library, where every file stays organized and ready to reuse.
If you are starting from scratch, use Dream AI as your image creator. Describe whatever you have in mind and it generates original artwork you can immediately turn into products.

Print-on-demand rewards clean, high-resolution artwork. Use the built-in AI tools to get your design production-ready in a couple of clicks.
- Remove the background to get a clean, transparent cutout that sits naturally on any product.
- Upscale the image so it stays crisp at full print resolution.
- Vectorize line art and logos when you need infinitely scalable output.
Step 3: Open your MyDesigns store
Create your free MyDesigns store: a hosted storefront that requires no separate hosting, theme, or marketplace account.
Connect your payment provider so you can start accepting customer payments, and set your store details such as name, branding, and shipping preferences.

Pick a blank from the catalog, place your design on it, and let mockups render automatically. Choose variants, set your pricing, and write your listing details.
When the product looks right, publish it to your store. Orders that come in are routed straight into fulfillment, so every item is produced and shipped for you.

From here you can scale up: connect additional marketplaces such as Etsy, Shopify, or WooCommerce and publish the same products everywhere at once.
