I'm having IKEA anxiety

We are going today (YAY!!) to order my nursery furniture and chair.  For some reason, they won't let me order it online for delivery.  They told me I had to come into the store.  Which is fine, because I need an IKEA day.  
However, I am so stressed that I am going to get there and for some reason I am not going to be able to get the furniture I picked.
Why I am so stressing this??? 

I guess we shall see.  In any event...
What else should I grab when I'm there??
I need picture frames, a clock. a wire thing that will hang DD's artwork.

Do you all like the plates, cups?  I love the large plastic silverware for DD, I'm going to get another pack of those....

    Ha, I just asked this a couple weeks ago. When I went I got:
    - kid's bedding (fitted sheets, duvet and cover)
    - curtains and a small rug
    - a dish rack
    - art supplies and a smock
    - some office organizers
    - a step stool
    - napkins, bag clips, and straws
    - a huge stuffed broccoli
    - colorful fabric boxes for DD's room

    - and most important of ALL!!!!! A frozen yogurt cone ;) 

    Edit: Oh! And we already had the plates, bowls, and cups and they're great. And it's a good place to get fabric, if you sew.

  • I love their toys, they're simple and many are made out of wood. Sometimes they have great kid's books too, big hardbacks for $5.
    They also have a new metal rolling storage cart that is really cute and sturdy. It has 3 bins and comes in turquoise or grey.

  • Love their picture frames. 

    Definitely check out the kid section. There are so many cute things right now.  They have some cloth hand puppets that were $1 last time I was there.  And i saw on their website some cute hats and shoes to play dress up.  Their art supplies are great too.  

    I always look for small storage bins too.  My daughter has Barbie shoes and other small odds and ends that need to be contained. And fabric pop up hampers/pop up trash cans make great storage for stuffed animals, blocks and other toys.    

    Curtain rods or towel racks with some curtain clips make a great place to hang kiddie art work.

    Our last trip was focused on getting items for the girls' new playroom, so we got an Expedit 4-shelf unit, a colorful rug, the Mammut table, a couple of stools, and a few wooden toys.  We have also purchased the RIBBA picture ledges to use as bookshelves, a few scented candles, easle and paper roll, and of course picture frames.  We have too much IKEA stuff.

    ETA:  This is the rug.  I am in LOVE with it!
