Silly questions, but I onlly recently spotted the gift guides (great iidea Folksy) and wanted to know  
a) Where you find the full list of categories (I only spotted 2 at the bottom of the home page which was “gifts for Cat Lovers” and "gifts for gardeners"  
b) If you have an item in your store that is perfectly suited to a particular category, can you submit it to Folksy to see if they will include it? Is there “items you would like to see added” bit on the website?  
ie how would I go about getting this featured in the cat lovers guide?

> Cats - the superior species... This tile coaster measures 10cm x 10cm, Can be ordered singly or as part of a set:- Single Coaster £2.99 with £1.50 p&p Set of 4 £10 (choose from any designs in the shop) with £2.70 p&p

  
I’ve also got loads of teacher gifts and would love to get them featured - just not sure how!  
Any advice anyone?

Hi everyone, I’d like to suggest my Waterskier drawing as a gift for any keen watersports Dad on Father’s Day. Or, if he’s Welsh, he might like my Dragon drawing. Check out these, and others, at my Valerie’s Arts and Crafts page. Hope you find something he’d like. Many thanks.

The bracelet measures 7" and has a bronze plated lobster clasp.

Hi  
I have only just started on Folksy (basically two or so days ago) so still very much getting my head around it all

With regards to the gift guides proposition I am not sure whether you are asking us - makers - that we come up with relevant themes for gift guides, but if that is the case, and with this year’s Great British Bake-Off show ending by the end of October, it may be a good idea to create a gift guide related to all thing baking to be published by mid October or shortly thereafter.

I would be grateful if you can confirm whether you may do a baking gift guide so that would provide me with an extra push to list substantial more items at my shop at [https://folksy.com/shops/TheSpeculaasSpiceCompany](https://folksy.com/shops/TheSpeculaasSpiceCompany)

I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Can I submit for gift guides here or is it somewhere else please? If here, can I submit these leaf earrings under Gifts for Gardeners?

Thank you.  
Can you tell me if there is an easy way to find how to submit items for other gift guides please?  
I’m looking for the Valentine suggestions at the moment and the last one I can find is 2017
