Susan,
I picture your project to be a beautiful work of art, begging for your 
attention!
I once had a custon-designed craft room. Designed by me and built by a 
local cabinet maker. For four years, I procrastinated getting it 
totally organized. It was always difficult to work among the mess. 
Finally, one year before we sold the house, I got myself in gear and 
organized the room.
Now we are in a different house with no place for a craft room.  Now, 
beadwork will be done on the dining room table.
I hear you and understand what you're saying about finishing and 
organizing your craftroom.  Go for it!!
Marti
