You can use sand pails as containers for anything imaginable. I remember seeing pails and buckets used in bathrooms holding rolled-up hand towels, for utensils, or as table centerpieces with potted plants, even as hanging storage.

Another idea how you can use a beach sand pail or beach bucket. Create a table lamp with it. Just stick a plain lamp into the beach bucket and fill it up with beach finds. Via Blue Gull Beach House.
