What's worse, getting a really horrible gift that does not fit you at all, or not getting anything at all from a close friend?
Last year, my aunt and cousin started getting into beading and decided they were going to make bracelets for everyone as gifts. She called up my mom to ask what my sisters' and my favourite colours are. My mom told her that we don't wear jewelry; don't make anything. My aunt didn't heed to that warning. We now have nine bracelets sitting on the bar because the three of us won't wear them.
It's great that they are having fun with their hobby and I'm sure there are some people that would love them. But it's like making salmon for dinner for someone who hates fish. Your efforts aren't going to have the effect you want.
with a horrible gift, as long as you have the receipt, you can always try returning it if it's possible.
