From Vision to Victory: How My Happy World Shop built a pet portrait store with Eurus

1. About My Happy World:

Aj – an artist and lifelong pet enthusiast – had a simple yet ambitious dream: to turn her love for animals into a thriving global business selling custom pet portraits. Not just a painting, Aj wants to capture the lovely memories for each person with their loved ones: the spouse, the family, their furry friends, and more. That’s where all the inspiration comes from and ignites her passion to open a Shopify store and spread her made-with-love paintings.

But there was a catch – Aj had zero e-commerce experience, and she had a lot of work to do since everything had to start from scratch…

That didn’t stop her. With a vision in mind and the right tools, she built My Happy World Shop into a print-on-demand (POD) success story, with the support from Eurus theme.

2. A Glimpse of the results that make both Aj and Eurus happy!

Aj’s journey paid off big time. Here’s what she achieved with Eurus:

✨ Launched a POD store with many useful features, save bucks on extra apps.

✨ Hit the ground running in two markets, Australia and the USA, with ease.

✨ Saved ~40 hours compared to building a typical website from scratch.

How’d she pull it off? Let’s jump back to the start.

3. The story begins with clear EXPECTATIONS…

Aj wasn’t just dreaming small. The two big objectives she expressed with Eurus from the very beginning are:

🖼️ A store vibing with her artwork

As an artist, Aj crafts custom digital oil paintings of people and pets, turning client photos into stunning artwork. She needed a store to showcase these portraits – offered as framed prints or digital files – plus extras like embroidery designs and personalized T-shirts. It had to be simple yet flexible to highlight her unique offerings.

🌎 Localization experiences for each market

Based in New Zealand, Aj’s customers are mostly in Australia and the USA. She bought two domains – .com and .au – to localize her store for both audiences, with plans to expand further. She needed guidance on setting up a shop that feels tailored to each market, and wondered: could Eurus handle multiple URLs?

As a beginner with no prior knowledge of building websites or running an online business, she needed a solution that was easy to use, looked polished, and could handle her POD model.

4. Eurus came with simple & powerful SOLUTIONS!

Enter Eurus, a Shopify theme designed to turn ideas into reality. Aj chose Eurus because it offered a step-by-step setup process that didn’t require her to be a tech expert.

Start with designing

Understand the requirements from the My Happy World store’s owner clearly, the Eurus team jumped to work on the very first design for the store on Figma. The team also asks for Aj’s feedback on every little detail, making sure everything is aligned before starting to work on the real project.

To set up the store

From day one, the theme’s custom design options let her create a store that matched her vision – bright, welcoming, and pet-obsessed. With that in mind, the Eurus team also elevates the theme’s feature and gradually builds up the dream store. And of course, the Eurus-powered store comes with a built-in multi-market support. Therefore, My Happy World could easily tweak its look for customers in the U.S. and Europe, adjusting currencies and languages without breaking a sweat.

And constant support

The Eurus team didn’t just hand her a theme and walk away – they provided ongoing guidance. Whether it was figuring out how to set up her product pages or tweaking the layout, Aj had experts in her corner. “I was clueless about setting up my store,” she admits, “but they guided me every step of the way.”

5. The final look of My Happy World

Aj now has her checklist all ticked: A warm, welcoming store to present her oil painting products and tailored to the two target markets, Australia and the USA. More than that, My Happy World now embraces all the powerful features Eurus offers to present their paintings most appealingly and convincingly:

Image comparison:

Customization Options:
