| The small plastic trim on the top and bottom of the headrail of my vertical blinds has yellowed and looks awful.... The offwhite/vanes remain in great shape. Anyone know if you can get new plastic trim? Or have any thoughts on how to save the blinds, but, get rid of the problem? |

| Paint.... |

| If you can remove the trim pieces, you could spray paint them with a spray that works on plastic. If you can't remove them, you could still paint them, but it's a lot more work. |

| Go to Home Depot and check out their faux, or wood, cornices. They should offer a choice of styles and color. I used one on the patio verticals in my previous home and loved how it gave them a finished look. My trim was white so I used a white cornice. If you're handy, you can make a simple cornice with straight edges and cover it in fabric. |
