Science Fiction: I would add to the above axioms.

Do not assume that taste or preference in clothing, jewelery, books, music, or art is universal. I love opera. But I would never give someone who has different tastes in music a collection of opera CD’s. One persons fabulous is another persons awful. Just consider the gifting of your wonderful taste as " Pearls before swine"…(in your instance it’s certainly comes close to being literal, even if she did not like it she should be gracious about any gift but especially one that meant so much to you)
