Best Throw Pillow Sources 2009
  
Clockwise from uppper left: BluDot, Thomas Paul, Orla Kiely & Alexander Girard

  During Room for Color Month (see all our entries here), many readers learn that one of the best ways to experiment and add color without painting or spending a lot money is to add throw pillows. Good throw pillows are hard to find, however, and it's nice to find ones that offer unique patterning, rich colors and something that you just won't see in anyone else's home. 

   Ta da! I'm here to help, with my updated Best Of list complete with sources and picks in a range of prices and styles. Enjoy, pass it on, and if you've know of a great one I've missed, email me "PILLOWS" at maxwell@apartmenttherapy.com.
