What is a custom duvet cover maker?
A custom duvet cover and bedding maker is a Shopify app that lets customers design personalized duvet covers or bedding sets with all-over sublimation print. The Shopify standard is Print It My Way (free to install). Bedding AOV: $58-145 single duvet cover.
Step-by-step setup
- Install Print It My Way (free). From the Shopify App Store.
- Pick bedding categories. Duvet cover (top seller), pillow shams (set of 2), fitted sheet, bedspread.
- Set bed size variants. Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, California King. Each has its own template.
- Configure all-over print canvas. Each bed size has a specific cut template. Customer design renders across the full template.
- Strict DPI per size. King duvet cover at 150 DPI needs 18000x15000 px. Most customer photos too small for bedding above twin. Block strictly.
- Offer pattern + photo flows. Pattern: customer picks design (more common for bedding). Photo: customer uploads single photo to tile or display.
Bed size variants
- Twin: 68x90 in. $32-42 cost, $75-115 retail.
- Queen: 88x90 in. $42-55 cost, $95-145 retail.

Is Print It My Way free to install?
Yes. Print It My Way is free to install from the Shopify App Store. The Free plan covers most small stores; paid plans unlock higher order volume, advanced features like Cart Transform per-character pricing, premium fonts, and white-glove support. There is no upfront fee and no credit card required to install.
How long does Print It My Way take to set up?
Most stores set up their first personalized product in under 15 minutes. The Shopify App Store install takes about 60 seconds; adding text fields, photo upload, color swatches, and live preview to a product takes 5-10 minutes. Catalog-wide rollout (50+ products) uses bulk-apply templates and typically takes 30-60 minutes total.
Does Print It My Way work with Shopify Basic, Shopify, Advanced, and Shopify Plus?
Yes. Print It My Way works on every Shopify plan including Basic, Shopify, Advanced, Plus, and Shopify Starter. Some advanced features like Cart Transform (per-character pricing) and B2B company accounts require Shopify Plus, but the core personalization fields, live preview, and order capture work on every tier.
Does Print It My Way slow down my Shopify store?
No. Print It My Way uses Shopify's storefront block architecture, which loads only on personalized product pages and doesn't add render-blocking scripts site-wide. Lighthouse and Core Web Vitals scores on personalized product pages stay green when the app is configured with default settings.
Does Print It My Way work with Printful, Printify, Gelato, and other POD partners?
Yes. Print It My Way has native integrations with Printful, Printify, Gelato, and other major print-on-demand partners. The customer's personalization data flows through Shopify's standard order pipeline, so any partner that reads line-item properties (which all major POD apps do) receives the print files automatically.
Does Print It My Way support Shopify Markets, multiple currencies, and multiple languages?
Yes. Field labels translate per language, upcharge prices can be set per currency, and the personalizer fully supports right-to-left languages including Arabic and Hebrew. The personalizer also handles Unicode for Cyrillic, CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean), Greek, and accented Latin characters with appropriate font fallback.
