(It had hair in the necklace! )Also, she had a bracelet with poker chips and cut dollar bills, and small pencils that were also “seasoned” and or dyed…in various colors, and junk…she had some really cool things that she made…I can’t find this person and I really want to locate her!

I believe the artist you may be thinking of might be Susan Lenart Kazmer. She makes beautiful jewelry and sculptures from found objects. The piece you are referring to could be “The Rooster and His Wife” (http://www.susanlenartkazmer.net/figures/rooster.htm).
I hope this helps!
I don’t know if this is the artist you’re looking for, but …. Susan Lenart Kazmer does beautiful things with found objects.
