The history of hex signs lies deep in their meanings. It wasn't too long ago that farmers and other dutch folks would place hex signs on barns, homes, and other buildings out of superstition. The signs were meant to protect (or place a "hex" on) the structures and things inside of them from evil and misfortune. From this tradition has grown a great heritage and beautiful folk art.
