If you really want to do this, and think it will work, you need to do more research. Maybe you have a good idea on your hands; maybe not. Regardless, the fact is, you don't have any idea the kind of work required to make something like this fly. Here are only a few examples of what you'd need assuming you can get someone to do design and web work:
supply chain
product manufacturing
payments tracking and processing
marketing capital and collateral
legal fees (don't sell anything for profit without consulting a lawyer and forming a corp)
Again, these are just a few major roadblocks I'm bringing up from the top of my head. None should stop you from pursuiing the business; however note that each will require some cash. Consider all of these things I've mentioned, and try to envision other potential business needs before making any moves.
I hope this helps. I never want to discourage an entrepreneur, but making a successful venture on the quick and cheap is usually only pulled off by someone with some serious experience and industry contacts.
