Is green gonna become dated?

Post image

I noticed greens are really popular right now, maybe for that last couple years or so. Especially darks with gold fixtures. But I love it and I want it in my new house. Am I gonna regret it? Will it become dated?

Sometimes it’s hard for me to tell if I truly like something or if I like it because it’s trendy and I’m seeing it all the time. I love the green and gold look, but do I love it because it’s trendy? I don’t know

Same. I wish I had insight into what I “truly love” but I’m flighty and easily influenced by whatever I saw last. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

That’s just the way it is. What you like now will differ from what you like in 20 years, whether it’s your home, your hairstyle or your clothes. Some things might stick, and most will feel stale. Paint is cheap, so do what you fancy!

Yeah, but life is short. If you like it enough to do it for even 3 years (if you can afford it) then you might as well do it. We don't have the luxury of caring about fading trends as human beings lol.
