Of course you can! It's your house - if you like the look - DO IT!

I don't think it matters much - it is very common to mix metals now and the grommets are not that visible. Hang them up and if you don't like them, change the rod or return the curtains.

Of course you can't! Totally against the law. Someone might call the curtain/curtain rod police and then you're in big trouble! Silly girl.😊😊 Like Bobbie said, it's your house. You can do whatever you want. If you want to paint, though; painting the rod a color to match the curtain might work. I'd have to experiment with this idea. Or, take your curtain to the store and match the color of the grommets to paint the rod.

Sure you can! No matchy matchy is necessary; however if it bothers you, just find s silverery paint and spray paint the rods. Rustoleum has lots of diferent colors to choose.
