This has been in the back of my head for the past few months, but I want to try making myself some "merchandise" (I don't know what word to use for it other than that). Things like 3D Mousepads, Stickers (that are good quality), standees, and a few others, but I am not entirely sure where to even start.

It would be fun to make things with characters of my own to have around, but I really do not know where to begin. I know a couple websites that could help but I am not too sure how safe they are. I can happily draw art for them myself but other than the art there, I am not sure what sites are good and what pages I can look for to help me here. I am not really looking for selling them as a product for others right now, I might in the future but I have to get invested into an idea like this and have that dedication for it first, and I don't entirely know how to work with those kinds of formats as of right now. I hope I don't sound dumb, I just don't know very much about things like this.

If I may ask, if any of y'all know good ways to make good quality Mousepads, Stickers, just merchandise in general, I would happily be open for suggestions. This is not super important, just something I want to try out on my own time for now of course, but still, it's been something I want to try out sometime is all. I apologize if it's rude to ask something like this, I am not entirely sure if it's right of me to ask, but if you have any advice and/or can help me with any information you can help me here with, I would be very thankful for all of it. Thank you for reading this all the way through, any help is appreciated (I am not asking for money at all, just information and/or advice). Thank you!
