Meg-Art takes the anxiety out of homemade gifting by offering prepared ceramic templates so you can skip ahead to the fun decorating part. This is great news for nine-year-old Thomas Whitehead of Roswell, Georgia, who currently holds the world record for worst consecutive homemade gifts. Here’s a list of some of his recent offerings, as best identified by his parents:
- Father’s Day (2008): Submarine pencil holder, or corncob ocarina.

- Christmas (2008): Partial tree branch with words “Harry Pottor” carved alongside an attempted lightning-bolt pattern or naturally occurring fracture.
