Seeing you only have 8 products for now, you could make them all 'Featured Products'.

Next you open your includes/languages/your_template/english.php file and look for the define 'Featured Products'. Change that to an empty string only leaving the 2 single quotes.

Then you could set Featured Products to be displayed on the main page - in your case without the heading 'Featured Products' because you blanked that out in the second step above.

This would leave all other bits and pieces intact on your main page.

Not an elegant solution but your visitors would not notice that.

PS: I see Kim has beaten me to that idea
