Default starting up own brand name/label for product

Hi all,

got a quick question, not sure what I should do:

I recently bought some samples of wall art/wall stickers from two young ladies who run their own business o/s. I have done a lot of research on these particular stickers & they aren't any in Australia (ie. on ebay). The quality of these stickers are fantastic. I told a few friends about them which a few bought them off me when they saw them as they loved them so much. So don't have any left to sell on ebay as such. I did make a small profit from the sale of the stickers - so now have a bit more to place another order with these ladies o/s.

I want to get a few more in & try ebay market & maybe local markets, etc to test the market.

These ladies don't export their products anywhere else (they told me this in an email)

If this works & I start up another small business selling these particular wall art/stickers, could I either approach them & become exclusive distributor for their products in Australia or start up my own brand name for the stickers & re-label/re-name & package in my own brand name - if that makes sense to you??

What would you recommend? How hard is it to setup branding, etc?

I'd really appreciate any comments on this - thanks

Thanks
Alison
