Love Christmas Counted Cross Stitch Kit — Advent Series

Love is a counted cross stitch kit with the word LOVE inside a red border with corner ornaments. The L is built from a red-and-white striped column and a green elf boot, a snowy fir forest hides inside the dark blue O, the V turns into reindeer antlers with a red nose, and the teal E wears a Santa hat. Pale blue snowflakes are scattered around the letters.
