High School Business Class Tips?

Me and a couple friends are starting a “street accessory” project for our business class (i.e. embroidered patches, lanyards, pins, stickers). Anyone have knowledge on:Where to buy said items in bulk, but not at a crazy rate like a minimum of 50 patches for 7 a unit (our school is small so were trying to start small with our expenses as well). I get embroidery specifically can be pricy, but if were going to sell any of these the price of each patch (sticker, pin, etc.) ideally would be under 5 bucks.Any general tips on how to create demand? We have kids our age who like to skate and such at our school, our main market, but ideally we want to branch out of that and have other kids want our product as well. I was thinking itd be best to take orders first and do a little field work in gauging interest before anything else.Anyway, any general pointers are helpful.
