In response to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, OODLES owner Sally Wright Bacon used her creative spirit to create feel-good paintings that bring joy and relief during uncertain times. Her artwork reflects her whimsical and quirky interpretation of life, aiming to lift spirits and change moods.

Sally's journey as a jewelry designer began as a form of spiritual rejuvenation after the tragic loss of her son. Her unique handmade jewelry pieces are a reflection of her free spirit, with no single style but a mix of color, shape, texture, and pattern. Her work ranges from wild and outrageous to sweet and feminine, always pushing boundaries and taking risks.

In addition to her jewelry, Sally also creates Beaded Rosaries that symbolize the connection between the physical and spiritual realms. Her work has even been commissioned for Pope John Paul II. Sally's creations, including her personal ornaments, can only be found exclusively at OODLES, which she established in 2010 as a place to share her gifts and those of artists from around the world.
