Trend predictions with staying power

In late 2012 I wrote a post about  2013 trends that I thought would have great staying power.  Several days ago I reread that post, and if I do say so myself I definitely hit the bullseye with my predictions. These are still going strong:simple geometric patterning nature inspired motifs (birds, feathers, florals, plants, etc. )lighter woods in furniture and  floorsgold toned finishes open walls
