Local Potter Joey Holmes Adds a Spooky Twist to Fall

As autumn approaches, local potter Joey Holmes is embracing the season with a touch of spooky charm. Known for his skillful pottery, Holmes has been throwing on the wheel and hand-building custom pottery pieces for 21 years. He has crafted a collection of whimsical ghosts that are now haunting a new location—his wife Suellen Holmes’ store, Holmes Photography & The Square Roots Store, on the square in Laurens.

“These ghosts have a way of bringing a bit of fun and fall flair to any home,” Joey Holmes says with a grin. “I’m thrilled to see them find new homes where they can add a little spooky spirit to the season.”

The charming little ghosts, which previously resided in Joey’s pottery shop, have found a new home among the photography prints and unique gifts at 115 E Laurens St, Laurens, SC. Their mission? To patiently wait for a new owner who will appreciate their eerie allure and take them home to add a bit of haunted charm to their space. Once you bring one (or more) home, it is suggested that you use a battery-powered tea light underneath to illuminate them as a real candle would create too much heat.

Each ghost is a handcrafted gem, priced at $35, and they’re expected to disappear from the shelves quickly. Whether you’re a local shopper or from afar, you can call (864) 681-7777 to place an order. Shipping is available coast to coast, so you can enjoy a touch of Laurens’ spooky spirit no matter where you are.

So, if you’re looking to spice up your fall decor with something uniquely crafted and a little bit ghostly, make sure to stop by Holmes Photography & The Square Roots Store—or give them a call.

Don’t miss your chance to bring home a little ghostly companion!
