How do I paint my heavyweight fabric Roman blinds?

Hi,

I’m trying to paint my fabric Roman blinds but I’d like to do it with latex paint. All the textile mediums seem to be for acrylic paints. Does anyone know of a medium for latex? A tested DIY recipe would be even better!! I have a ton of chalk paint additive also but I’m not sure if chalk paint works on upholstery fabric. I’ve heard it makes fabrics very stiff and as I’d like my blinds to still be functional after painting them, I’m not sure that’s the best route. Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have!!
