Two things please.
First, if I paint my living room pale sage/willow wtf colour curtains do I get (plainish please. No shouty patterns)

Second. In my bedroom we have naff magnet built in cupboards. Do I get someone (a carpenter?) to replace the doors with plain wood I can paint to match walls (and hopefully make cupboards sort of invisible) OR am I screwed and i need to rip the whole lot out?

Curtains - I’d go for natural linen. Maybe slightly patterned like a herringbone. Ian Mankin has some nice options.

Cupboards - ideally need a picture. But if you’re happy with the layout and size of the cupboards then yes replacing the doors with mdf should be perfectly doable.

ps You want a joiner for the new cupboard doors rather than a carpenter

We managed to prise the plasticky front off ours and paint the mdf underneath. New handles and it looks great!
