The collaboration
The St. Augustine Mug began with local research and a collaboration with Juniper Market. Ashley translated the community’s recognizable places and shared references into an original drawing designed for everyday use.
The St. Augustine Mug is carried by Juniper Market, where active local sales and inventory coordination have continued after launch.
Each element began as an individual hand drawing. Ashley refined the artwork and arranged the pieces into a continuous design made to wrap around a ceramic mug, creating a keepsake that feels specific to St. Augustine.
The story behind the mug
Ashley partnered with Juniper Market to create a mug rooted in St. Augustine.
Research and community input highlighted Spanish colonial history, coastal landmarks, distinctive architecture, and the streets of the nation’s oldest city.
Ashley translated each selected place and symbol into an individual hand-drawn illustration.
The drawings were refined and arranged into a continuous design that rewards a closer look.
The finished mug became a locally available keepsake through Juniper Market.
Inside the illustration
Each element celebrates a recognizable part of the community’s history, landscape, gathering places, and everyday life.
The coquina fortress stands beside Matanzas Bay as the city’s defining historic landmark.
The drawbridge and its marble lions connect downtown with Anastasia Island.
The black-and-white tower recalls the city’s long maritime history.
The former Ponce de Leon Hotel fills the skyline with Spanish Renaissance architecture.
The stone pillars mark the historic entrance to St. Augustine’s colonial streets.
The pedestrian street brings together historic buildings, local shops, and everyday city life.
The creative process
I built this design around Castillo de San Marcos, Bridge of Lions, St. Augustine Lighthouse, and Flagler College. Each was drawn on its own, then adjusted and arranged until the finished wrap felt less like a collection of icons and more like a walk through St. Augustine.
Behind the design
A meaningful local gift
Whether someone has just moved to St. Augustine, Florida, is preparing to leave, or still calls it home from miles away, this hometown mug offers a warm and useful connection to the community.
