When the party heads outdoors, make alfresco areas inviting with these savvy suggestions from interior designer Nicole Sassaman.

Other ways to transform a backyard into a welcoming retreat is by placing a stylish rug on your lawn for a fun picnic or using lanterns and candles to direct guests to serene spots for lounging.
