Tiki Pole Holder - Tiki Carving

Anway, it gets a bit windy sometimes here in Florida and I was looking for ways to unobtrusively secure the poles so they won't fall over. The best solution that I have come up with so far is to remove the upper portion of a 5-gallon plastic paint bucket and mount the bucket on the deck and secure the pole to the bucket. Even if I paint the bucket brown, I think that it will end up looking kind of tiki ghetto. Anybody have any suggestions?
