Scrapbook & Media Room

Recently Millennium created a space to help a client make her own creations: scrapbook pages. After an installation that took only a couple of weeks, this Grosse Pointe Park client had an entire room customized to meet her design and storage needs–while her husband got his own media room to watch sports in. Special features of this scrapbooking room include frosted glass cabinet panels that spell out the word “CREATE”, an extensive paper shelving unit, spotlight lighting and an island workspace.

Below is a testimonial from the client:

“When I first had the idea of a scrapbook room I contacted Millennium. I met with Chris [Varady] and told him what I was looking for and hen he came back with a set of blueprints, I was AMAZED! Millennium did not skip a detail with my room. From start to finish it was constant communication. I met with the project manager every day and he would tell me what the plans were for that days and always completed it. I received phone calls in the evening asking if I had any questions or needed anything. I have never in my life had such a wonderful experience with a company. The quality of my cabinets and all the work down will last a lifetime. Thank you for creating the room of my dreams.”

Cooking Demo in our Showroom

Millennium Cabinety hosted a cooking demonstration and luncheon for the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) at our new Farmington Hills showroom on March 13, 2012. Acclaimed local chef Annabel Cohen presented with a passover recipe demonstration. The ladies of NCJW enjoyed a menu of mixed greens salad topped with blueberries and goat cheese, quinoa with sun dried tomatoes, pan-roasted salmon topped off with a decadent chocolate mousse.  Before lunch was served, the ladies were given a tour of Millennium’s 20,000 square foot factory. Our showroom with a fully equipped, state-of-the-art kitchen provided a delightful venue for the cooking demonstration and luncheon. We hope to host many such an event in our facility. If you’re group is looking for such a space, feel free to gives us a call (248.645.9005).

Millennium Gives Back

Image

Millennium is giving back! Through the Friendship Circle of Michigan, a local organization that provides support for children with special needs, Millennium is donating their craft to a 21 year old named Liliya who suffers from cerebral palsy and liver cancer.

Originally from Russia, Liliya’s family moved to Oak Park, Michigan for better health care–and have been living for 17 years in a small, one-bedroom apartment. The Friendship Circle is renovating a studio apartment for this wheelchair-bound young woman in her family’s apartment complex to give this disabled young woman a bit of space and sense of independence.

Millennium will be helping in this renovation by building Lilily a custom-made ottoman and a built-in wall unit for her to have space to organize her things and a table for her to work on creative projects. Stay tuned for pictures of the donated furniture.

To help Liliya, contact the Friendship Circle of Michigan.http://www.friendshipcircle.org/
