This is what I'm planning to do as well, at least initially. Curtain (with removable white-colored blackout fabric) on tension rod. Our shades aren't broken but I want to use fabric instead. And to be able to lean back against them sitting up in bed, which you can't do with blinds. At some point we'll remove the valance too and put up a curtain rod. I need to get some of the tans & browns out of the interior and bring in some blues. The cabinets and counter tops are pretty and happy with that but the cushions and valances are easy to replace and doing so will create some balance. If I'm going to be (gulp) indoors, I need to be happy with the colors :-) Good luck and please us know how your replacement goes.
