The stars seen on buildings, no matter their size or colour are a decorating trend call American that has been sweeping North America for the past couple of decades.
They have no symbolism of their own except the obvious, "American" connection.
However a large number of Pagan households do adopt it for their own as a publicly acceptable, but not overt representation of the pentacle.


There is an extensive history of the use of painted symbols (including the five pointed star) in the Pensilvannia Dutch Hex symbols which has been traced back to symbols painted on barns, out buildings, taverns and home in Europe. These have been documented to go back at least to the early 1600s. The Symbolism in these hexes vary with the painters and the regions they are found in, but most symbolise the protection of the heavens.
