The Christmas Cactus barn hex is steeped in history and tradition. Its design is adapted from a stunning 1700s quilt block that we discovered at an auction. Preserving this heritage, we’ve reimagined it in a circular format, adding our own artistic touch to honor its timeless beauty.
Painted in our Prairie Paint colors — Geranium Petals, Foxglove, and Butter Cream — the hex radiates warmth and vibrancy. Geranium Petals, a rich and cheerful red, is perfectly complemented by the soft, natural green of Foxglove and the subtle glow of Butter Cream. Together, these hues evoke the festive spirit of the season while maintaining a grounded, earthy elegance.
The Christmas Cactus flower, for which this design is named, blooms in the most unexpected time of year: the cold, harsh days of winter. This ability to flourish despite adversity makes it a powerful emblem of hope and resiliency. We drew on this symbolism as we created this barn hex, aiming to capture its message of perseverance and beauty in challenging times.
Our barn hexes are more than decorative; they carry stories, traditions, and values. Each piece is carefully painted and sealed with our Prairie Paint Finishing Wax to ensure lasting beauty and durability. Whether displayed indoors or outdoors, The Christmas Cactus will stand as a heartfelt reminder of the season’s deeper meanings.
