Kitchen & Pantry Organizer in Hickory, NC
The kitchen is the first room most Hickory clients call us about — and for good reason. It's where the day starts, where the evening lands, and where clutter compounds fastest. Our Hickory kitchen and pantry work resets both the visible cabinets and the invisible flow behind them.

Kitchen & Pantry for Hickory homes
Hickory kitchens run the full range — 1920s Westmont bungalow kitchens with three feet of counter, Viewmont mid-century kitchens with tiny appliance garages, newer builds off 127 with generous islands and dead-corner pantries. We work in all of them. The furniture-town families who love pieces with history but need them to earn their square footage tend to inherit good cookware and outgrow the cabinets that came with the house.
The "Lighter by Day One" Promise
If you don't feel measurably lighter — physically and mentally — by the end of our first session together, we'll keep working until you do. We don't leave a project that doesn't feel like peace.
Our approach
How kitchen & pantry works in Hickory
We start with a real cook-through. How do you actually prep? Where does mail land? Where do the kids reach for snacks? Then we zone the kitchen — prep, cook, snack, coffee, baking — and rebuild the pantry so staples are visible and dated. Decanting is optional, not mandatory. Labels are functional, not decorative.

The after picture
What it looks like when it's done
Your Hickory kitchen stops being the room that resets your mood every morning. Coffee lives near the mugs. Snacks live where the kids can reach. The pantry tells you the truth about what you actually have before you shop.

What people say about working with Jenna
Rated 5.0 stars on Google — every word below is from a real client.
Feeling overwhelmed… Don't have the time… my ADHD has kept me from finishing my closet cleanout and organization. It's funny how the mess and piles sends my ADHD into orbit but also paralyzes me from doing anything about it…
Enter… Jenna Eury Kappes! I can't speak highly enough. Soooo reasonable with price! Very fast and efficient and full of helpful ideas. She organizes, color codes, declutters!
I may have her just come biweekly! Lol. Most people have her do one closet and end up having her do all the rest — garages, storage, etc.
She gets back to you, very thorough in explaining, and gets the job done asap. Best money I have ever spent. What a huge weight lifted. I have too many other important things to worry and stress about.
The greatest gift we could have given our adult children was to have Jenna come and help them get a hold of their home's organization. With four children in each home it's easy for so much to accumulate. Jenna helped them make a quick assessment of the "chaos" and what needed to go to trash and what was "give away" value. Their homes now have a feeling of peace and order and each family now feels like they can stay on top of things.
Jenna has such a gift for assessing the situation, where to start, and at the same time "listening" to the client's needs. Don't think twice, call Jenna. You'll be so glad you did! 😊
I absolutely recommend. I had nothing but chaos in my garage, now everything has its place. So neat and organized!
Jenna came into my kitchen and worked hard the whole time. Her dedication and work ethic were awesome! She made sure she knew exactly what I was looking for. She worked quickly and efficiently and got the job done — and now my anxiety about my kitchen disaster from moving is gone! I have a functional place to make meals and memories for my family!
I hired Simply Stored to come in at the beginning of my renovation of my workshop. This was a project that overwhelmed me completely. I had no idea what to put where, how to utilize my wall space, and how to make the idea in my head of a clean streamlined workshop into a reality.
I met with Jenna once, told her my ideas and showed her the complete wreck that the workshop space was in (nothing but a junk-filled garage warehouse), and then I asked her to dream up the space I was seeing in my head. Jenna came, and in the course of a month of HARD WORK and devoted care to bringing my space to its full potential, she had transformed it into the workshop I knew it could be.
From writing up lists for me when I went to IKEA to pick up furniture and supplies, to rolling with design changes and the introduction of a 17-foot WALL — Jenna was ON IT. I love her work so much, I'll be hiring her to come in once a month and reorganize the workshop to make sure I'm never in too much of a creative hurricane to effectively produce.
Jenna is amazing! She organized my kitchen, laundry room, pantry, and all of my closets! Everything has a place now! I needed somebody to come in and create a system that worked and was easy to follow. Jenna listened to what I wanted and needed and worked with me every step of the way. Truly life changing for me. I highly recommend her!
Can't say thank you enough to Jenna at SimplyStoredNC! She took what was an overwhelming chaos in my kitchen and guided me through organizing made simple. Now my kitchen is efficient, organized, and clutter-free — all because she was able to teach me simple steps to helping me get the end result I so desperately needed. Since Jenna came to my house and was able to show me the process, it spurred me to venture into other areas of my house.
