Do you have a container for the beads? It sounds like you just bought a bag of loose beads? Or did they come in a disk. If they are loose beads you will need to place them in a dish, container, pantyhose sock, or something else to hold them. The dust won't hurt, but it will be annoying. I'd try not to spill it everywhere in the humidor... But yes, that happens with beads and it's pretty normal.
No am still waiting for it to be delivered by UPS hopefully it will be here tomorrow if not then Monday.
It says it holds 600 cigars
Its says Cheaphumidors Humidity Beads on the bag 1/2 lb bag I got 2 of them so I have a total of 1lb
It has a drawer in the bottom for what ever humidity stuff you use
Ok, I see the bottom drawer, but you don't want to just "dump" the beads in there. Either get a shallow bowl or plastic container to hold them, or what I like to use are pantyhose socks. With that thing being so tall and having a large glass panel, you will probably need a humidity source both at the bottom and at the top.
I am planing on use some kind of dish or container I am waiting to too get so I can take measurments on the drawer too how much room is there.
And how would I place something in the top?

You could look into something along the lines of a black ice jar, secured up top...or placed on the top shelf.

The same way; youll need a dish at the top, or a pouch. I'd go pouch (pantyhose, or anything else) so incase you knock it, you can't spill beads all over your humidor. Also, easier to stuff near the back to hide out of sight and it'd waste less space. You could also buy a gel humidifier (jar or attachable plastic tray). Xikar makes good stuff.
I do have anther 1lb of beads coming in the mail but they are from a different place I had a problem with the first seller and didn't think they where going to send them so I placed a second order and got them first. How would you suggest i place some beads in the top ? Just on a self?
Would it be safe to place a couple of small hooks in the top of the humidor to hang beads in stockings?
I think just setting on the shelf is perfect. No reason to hang em up... I have a sock in my humi and it just lays on the wood. You don't drench beads with water, so they are ok sitting on the wood (in a cloth or mesh pouch/sock).
From the research that I have done to season the humidor i need to do the following:
1)Wipe it down with a barely damp natural sponge
2)Place containers with water in them and let sit until the water level no longer drops
3)Then place the beads in to it and watch and make sure it is staying at 70% RH
Only using Distilled water
