About Us

Country Rustic Magazine, originally published as “Mercantile Gatherings” from 2004 through 2017, was re-branded and introduced as one of the hottest *new* country rustic magazines on the market in Spring of 2018!

Country Rustic Magazine is a unique, visual experience in rustic country and farmhouse-style décor, showcasing a few personal home tours each issue, and just chock-full of interesting articles about antiques, their history and use in styling your modern-day country rustic home décor, along with DIY projects, decorating tips, cooking articles, recipes and much more.

DJ Williams, Editor-In-Chief, and owner of DJDOODLE LLC, publishes Country Rustic Magazine from her humble  300+ year old historic home in the tiny little Borough of Hulmeville nestled in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. DJ has been an avid antique and primitive fanatic for nearly forty years, and is thrilled beyond measure to have the privilege and opportunity to continue the journey of Mercantile Gatherings into the new adventure of Country Rustic Magazine.
