hi Jeff,
Whatever floor material you decide to use, you'll want a sturdy industrial type floor mat at the exit of the area so people can dry their feet as they leave.
for Bubble making goodness, here's a few possibilities:
-hula hopes, wrapped in cotton rope
-frames, made from rubber tubing and cotton string
-plastic cones from large size thread spools (look here if you don't know what I mean http://www.jhcplastics.com/cones.htm) we ask local textile companies for them at no cost.
-assorted kitchen tools: funnels, slotted spoons...
Good luck! have fun exploring bubbles!

We are planning to create a bubble wand making station. Are there any
recommendations for materials and/or designs to utilize?
Thanks in advance for sharing your expertise.
