About us

The Decorating Business is a hands on, full service company run by husband and wife team Frank Anselmo and Lindsey Tipler. That’s us. 

We were established on Long Island in 1998 when we were introduced by a mutual friend who saw the potential for a work connection. Frank, a painter/wallpaper guy and Lindsey, a specialist paint finisher. But it was our personalities that made us click. 

We spent our first couple of decades together on Long Island working for home and business owners, alongside designers and architects, collaborating with other skilled trades people, building the business to offer a full range of finishing services. Projects included new build and renovated homes, restaurants, bars and clubs. Servicing Manhattan to the Hamptons and out of state for clients with second homes, and businesses. 

Now based in Woodstock, we continue to service existing customers, who have become friends, while meeting and making new ones here in the Hudson Valley.  We are enjoying finding local talent to work with upstate but still hold a healthy contact list of subcontractors ready and able to take care of a project when necessary.
