AITA for returning my homemade wife’s birthday gift me and telling her I don’t want it. I then went out and bought what I actually wanted

I need an outside opinion on this. This has been an ongoing issue that I have talked to her multiple times about.

My wife makes less money than me and is the type of people who prefers to make her own gifts for people. The issue is she will do this even if the person doesn’t want this.I will use myself as an example. For the past few years she has made every single gift I have been given.

No matter what I asked for I get a homemade gift, doesn’t matter if it is cheap or not. Last Christmas I asked for a new a few things and I got a homemade scarf. I always get her stuff she want. I have talked to her about this multiple time.

My birthday was yesterday and I asked her to give me a book. It was only 25 dollars and I sent her the link. I opened the gift and she made some homemade bookmarks. It wasn’t even the type oof bookmarks I like. They were made from fabric and I like the wooden ones.

I must have made a face because she asked what was wrong. I told her I didn’t want these. I made it so clear what I actually wanted and I have talked to her so many times. I handed them back and went out to buy the book.

We had a big fight when I got back, she claims I am being ungrateful and a jerk.
