February2021 | by stephanie toews

In an Instagram poll, we asked our followers: Chocolate or Jewelry for Valentine's Day? The clear winner? Jewelry, by a landslide. With that in mind, we've got bling for every budget!

Enjoy the Ride

Jewelry made from vintage cars, how cool is that? Give a nostalgic gift taking your love back to their first car, driving adventure, or a drive-in movie. Each unique item is created from recycled vehicles when they were made of steel and made to last, just like your love. Joyride Jewelry is made in Bozeman and available for $60-250 at Simply Local Marketplace, 115 Shiloh Rd. Suite 1.

Best Seller

This Valentine’s Day, grab one of Neecee’s most popular sellers for the love of your life, Montana sterling silver necklaces with or without bling. All options are made in Montana, with prices ranging from $59 (tiny MT pendant) to $89 (without stone) and $199 (with Montana Sapphire). Available locally at 1027 Shiloh Crossing Blvd.

Mixed Media

Handmade jewelry by Billings designer and metalsmith Susan Fischer Hayes is sure to please! Whether you're searching for a beautiful stone pendant reminiscent of a Montana landscape or brass and silver mixed pendant and earrings paired with a brass bracelet, Fischer Design Jewelry is a great choice. Pick out your favorite at Simply Local Marketplace. $45-100
