Try Fire Mountain Gems. They have a huge selection and they are pretty reasonable I think. The customer service is also great when you order over the phone. In their catalog they also have a lot of examples of bead work.

Their site is: http://www.firemountaingems.com

They also carry a whole bunch of other jewelry and beading supplies. Hope this is what you were looking for.
