You could just replace the slats with new ones or you could spray paint the entire thing.
Another idea would to be cover them with fabric that would give them a whole new look.
Some folks just put sheers in front of the blinds so they stand out less (but I would touch up those slats they look well worn).

Honestly, I would just replace them. In order to paint them, you will need to remove and clean each slat before painting. You also will need to use a multi-surface spray paint to be sure of good adhesion.
You could roll them with something like heirloom traditions all in one paint.
Home depot sells replacement slats as well as Amazon. If you want to paint them, hand them on a clothes line with clothes pins and use spray paint. You will be able to spray both sides this way.
