The regular aluminum tubes have been used before but the problem is that even with a bunch of holes and a very small bit some beads will fall out.

You could take a pair of ankle high stockings and just cut it off an put the beads inside. Some have also used the small filter bags for aquariums or cheesecloth.

Well, my experience stems from an old friend who essentially paints with very small beads. http://www.alfar.com/~joanne/ Larger beads, like for a necklace, would need a different container.
