Please remember to only use the tag on items that are relevant to the tag, and make sure you’ve got the tag on your listing written exactly as it is in this list (for example if the tag is ‘hare’ and your item is only tagged with ‘hares’ or ‘hare art’, it won’t be included as it’s not an exact match).
For My Favourite Piece on 14th March please choose just ONE item you’re particularly proud of or want to highlight this month.
If you’re new and aren’t sure what Theme of the Day is, this is a section of our homepage which has a different theme every day, and means if your items are a match to that day’s theme, they have a chance of showing on the homepage.

Lots of variety for March! But can someone explain what is ‘First Mother’s Day’ ? I haven’t come across the term before. Is it only for new mums?
I assumed it was for new mums, ie those who had become mothers since last mothers day, thus this Mothers Day will be their first!
But I guess ideas for gifts will be much the same.

That makes sense. Thanks! @samazama
Yes, that first mother’s day can feel extra special, so sometimes people might be looking for something that specifically acknowledges that, or want to find something that feels a bit more special than the standard mother’s day gift. They might want something to remember the moment when the child is still a baby, or it might be that people are looking for a pampering gift to help those new mums relax and have a bit of time for themselves.
