WooCommerce: exclude categories in loop that are managed in WordPress

I'm building a WooCommerce shop that shows 6 categories, handpicked by the shopowner, on the homepage.

I want to be able to manage the 6 categories in WordPress, so we can change things up every once in a while.

In the current situation, we're excluding one categorie ID (51) with an if-statement.

Here's the code:

$taxonomy     = 'product_cat';

$orderby      = 'name';

$show_count   = 0;      // 1 for yes, 0 for no

$pad_counts   = 0;      // 1 for yes, 0 for no

$hierarchical = 1;      // 1 for yes, 0 for no

$title        = '';

$empty        = 0;



$args = array(

    'taxonomy'     => $taxonomy,

    'orderby'      => $orderby,

    'show_count'   => $show_count,

    'pad_counts'   => $pad_counts,

    'hierarchical' => $hierarchical,

    'title_li'     => $title,

    'hide_empty'   => $empty

);



$all_categories = get_categories( $args );

echo '<ul class="small-block-grid-1 medium-block-grid-3">';



foreach ($all_categories as $cat) {

    if ($cat->category_parent == 0 && $cat->term_id != 51) {

        $category_id = $cat->term_id;

        $thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta( $cat->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );



        echo '<li class="single-news-post"><a href="'. get_term_link($cat->slug, 'product_cat').'">';



        $image = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id );

        if ($image) {

            echo '<img src="' . $image . '" alt="' . $cat->name . '" />';

        }



        echo '<h3>'. $cat->name .'</h3>';

        echo '</a></li>';

    }

}

Is it possible to handpick the categories we want to show and manage these categories through our dashboard?

Thanks!
