Can I dye or paint roller blinds?

Wondered if it is possible or if anyone has tried to either dye or paint fitted roller blinds and if so what did you use.Can't afford to replace them but have decorated and would like to change them from yellow to beige if possible.Any ideas appreciated!

1. yes use spray paint
2. If they are cloth, then get a really big bucket or risk using your bathtub and buy fabric dye. Follow the cold water directions. If they are vinyl, then sorry you’re stuck with the color that they are now. Many places have really cheap cut to size roller blinds. I bought some for my guest room for about $5 each, cheaper than the dye to try and color the old ones.
3. sure you can if they are made from fabric get a fabric paint, if they are plastic use a gloss or vynal silk.
4. A good enamel spray will do the trick
5. Find some fabric contact paper. and just stick it on. It looked beautiful in our formal dining room. my mom did both sides it really caught on in our neighbor hood... my mom should have been a decorator!
6. spray paint works best with a clear gloss or matte
7. yes
8. Why don't you just make new ones. Here's how; take down blind, unroll the blind and remove from pole, measure length you require and go to a fabric shop and buy new piece. Cut edge with pinking shears so it won't fray. Stick onto pole with tape, roll up. A new blind!!!!!
