I'm doing a wedding waaay out of town at the beginning of June, so we're going with cupcakes to serve and a 'fake cake' to display. (Less headache than trying to drive 15 hours with a real cake!) The cake will be white fondant with black damask stencil, and I've found some gorgeous cupcake wrappers that match so beautifully! My question is, does anyone know where I can get them cheaper? The best price I can find right now is $65 for 100 of them, then approx $15 shipping. We're looking at roughly 80 cents per cup. Does anyone know of a place that will sell wholesale? The places that I have wholesale accounts do not have these lovely damask papers. 
Those are gorgeous. Why don't you make them yourself. I've made my own cupcake wrappers a few times and they turned out great, and are much cheaper! Go to a craft store, like Michael's, and pick up some damask print scrap booking paper. Buy a pair of scalloped scissors and glue and use the template from the following website, and ur ready to go. Hope this helps!

Yah, that's an option, but I'm just not looking forward to making a hundred or more of them. Then again, there is enough time I could sit and do it at night while watching movies with the boys. That might not be so bad if I just did a few here and a few there. Do you know how many you can get on a standard sheet of paper? I'm thinking that could make a significant savings and that would be worth a few night of cutting and gluing! 
Hi, Melvira -- the price you show is the best I've seen for those. GSA carries a line called Bakery Crafts where you get 48 wrappers for around $15.99, but I don't think their black and white is as pretty as the damask one in your photo. The only other place that I've seen them in bulk is Bella Cupcake Couture, where you can get 100 mini's for $48.00; the reg. size is $48.00 for 50 wraps.
Good luck -- those are gorgeous!
Well... This is not cheaper initially, BUT... If you bought a craft cutter (silhouette (which is what I have), cricut, etc) you could whip those babies out in NO time! I know there are a few different wrapper patterns available for download on the silhouette, and they're only $1.99. If you found the right paper, you could have it all done in a night! There's also the fun bonus of getting to use the machine for gumpaste, sugarveil, icing paper, etc 
tstaton, I believe there are several threads that talk about how to use the cricut on gumpaste. You can try to do a search using 'cricut' as the subject and you should find something. Or, you can pray JanH stumbles by because she has the link to *everything*. That woman scares me sometimes! Hahahahha! Kidding of course.
That's exactly what I did, I did a few pages per night and you have a lot of time to get them done. If I recall properly, I was able to fit about 6 per page.
oh no! Not ANOTHER reason for me to get a cricut! Guess what I am gonna be asking for all year?
So even the liners you buy (I have never purchased liners but adore them) dont have bottoms? They only wrap around the sides?
Those liners are beautiful!!!
Well, for being the MOST popular pattern on the planet (or so it seems by how much stuff there is with damask patterns) there is NOTHING to use for cupcake wrappers and a cake!! Where does everyone get the stencils they use? I can't find ANY!! I actually found a broom, mop, dustpan, and other cleaning items that have damask patterned handles, but no STENCIL!!??!?!? WTH???? And FORGET damask paper to hand make these wrappers. It doesn't exist.
chefjulie,
do you have a link to the downloadable wrapper? Does it have scalloped edges? I downloaded a pattern for a straight edge wrapper, but I wanted a scalloped edge one.
I'm not chefjulie, but if you go to craft edge forum Heather has made two svg files of scalloped cc wrappers, they cut really nice.

scroll past the image of the wrappers to the attachment of the svg file.
JoyRide, I would really appreciate that, how very sweet of you! I have torn through JoAnns, Michaels, Hobby Lobby, and Scrapaganza, (as well as searching online. At Michael's I found one that is the right thickness (almost a card stock type of thickness) but the pattern won't look as nice when cu ton a curve like you have to do with the cucpake wrappers, then at Hobby Lobby I found the right pattern, but the thickness is really thin... I don't know if it will hold up. But I bought a few anyway and will test it.

Try checking a paper store; my dh runs a paper store/warehouse here in St. Pete that sells to the public and they have different kinds of paper stock. (computer paper, ink, printers, invites, etc) The store is owned by Xpedx which in turn is owned by International Paper. IP owns another branch called "If It's Paper" and they carry scrap bookbooking supplies as well. The store is a mega warehouse of paper and they have books you can search thru. Just a thought, but might give you more choices....

You're right, the ones at Hobby Lobby were really thin, just plain old scrapbook paper and not cardstock.
Do you have a good printer? If so you could try a digital collage sheet and print it on cardstock! Like this: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=40045991
chefjulie,
do you have a link to the downloadable wrapper? Does it have scalloped edges? I downloaded a pattern for a straight edge wrapper, but I wanted a scalloped edge one.
Here are the ones I have: (There are just downloaded from the website that works with the Silhouette)
Thank you ChefJulie, that's very sweet of you to say!
I thought about getting a pretty pattern online and print on cardstock, I have a laser printer and a photo printer, I could test which looked better. I was just afraid that the combo of printing the pages AND having to hand cut would make them NOT a bargain. The addition of supplies and time, you know? One thing I got was a sheet of the sticky back foam, and the thin Hobby Lobby paper. I thought I'd try putting the paper on the foam and cutting them out. That would be WAY sturdy, and honestly, those two sheets from HL cost less than one sheet of the printed cardstock at Michael's, I think. Or at least negotiably close. Thank GOODNESS I have a little bit of time and all of you guys kicking out excellent suggestions!
enchantedcreations, I cannot tell you how jealous I am that your hubby runs a paper store. I have this weird...*thing* about paper. Office supplies make me all crazy. If you take me into a scrapbooking type store, or even a really good office products store, I get all... excited. Like a kid in a candy store. It's almost embarassing. 
Well, these aren't "perfect", but they're much cheaper than any alternative that I've seen:

Google: "cupcake treat wraps"
A whole, new, less expensive option for these wrappers comes up.
HTH

BlakesCakes, thank you! That is a really affordable option!! I appreciate that link! It's not the exact damask pattern that I originally showed my bride, but I'm pretty confident she would like this one! She originally wanted scrolls, then I showed her the damask and she thought that was just as pretty. This one is sort of a mix. I will also try cupcake treat wraps as my search term and see what else we can find that she likes.
Thanks again to everyone for your two cents. I appreciate how everyone is pitching in to help me out!
You can open a wholesale account at Dress My Cupcake (http://www.dressmycupcake.com) and the Damask cupcake wrappers will be much less expensive
