The threshold $p_c(H)$ for the event that the binomial random graph $G_{n,p}$ contains a copy of a graph $H$ is the unique $p$ for which $\mathbb{P}(H \subseteq G_{n,p}) = 1/2$, and the fractional expectation threshold $q_f(H)$ is roughly the best lower bound on $p_c(H)$ using simple expectation considerations. All previously known $H$'s with $p_c(H)$ substantially larger than $q_f(H)$ have the property that $v_H > n/2$ (where $v_H$ is the number of vertices of $H$). We construct small graphs whose threshold for containment in $G_{n,p}$ is of different order than their corresponding fractional expectation threshold: there is a constant $c > 0$ such that for any $m \; (\leq n)$, there is a graph $H$ with $v_H = m$ and $p_c(H) > q_f(H) c \log^{1/2}(v_H).$
