One Hotel That Gets the Christmas Decorations Just Right

While we were busy scouring Flickr for images of the worst Christmas decor in hotel lobbies to make our Five Ugliest Types of Hotel Lobby Christmas Decorations list, we came across a photo from a hotel that nailed the whole festive decorating thing — and won our boozey little hearts.

Behold a grand, sparkling structure (and the beams of light that seem to shine upon it from the heavens): a Christmas tree made of wine bottles in the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville. Seriously, check it out.

The massive hotel is well-known for its Christmas festivities ("A Country Christmas") — which, this year, includes a Radio City Rockettes show and a production of The Grinch on ice — but we're pretty sure we'd skip all of that business to sit under this tree drinking straight through the twelve days of Christmas.

    do they have some sort of assembly kit?

    i would like to start building this now. we can probably fill up a few rows judging by the wine bottles in my recycling bin right now.

    The sommelier would lose his mind

    That is NOT proper storage....I hope those are $4 reject bin bottles.

    hold on now...

    while i agree that the wine bottle tree is a pretty sweet concept, that place is madness with the whole country christmas thing.  there's scary gigantic santas and elves and stuff in the atriums; its pretty freaky
