RudiC is correct... And, in addition to that, redirecting output to /dev/null (even though mkdir never writes anything to standard output) and then redirecting standard error to standard output throws away any diagnostic messages that mkdir might produce. But, you should be able to change:
to:
to get what you want. Note, however, that if the directory already existed, the mkdir will fail, but you still have the directory you want. If you don't want to get EEXIST errors when the directory already exists, you might want to try something more like:
to give you a success message if the directory has been created at some point in the past or during the execution of your script and the desired error messages if you didn't successfully create the desired directory.

mkdir
MKDIR(1) BSD General Commands Manual MKDIR(1)NAME
mkdir -- make directories
SYNOPSIS
mkdir [-pv] [-m mode] directory_name ...
DESCRIPTION
The mkdir utility creates the directories named as operands, in the order specified, using mode ``rwxrwxrwx'' (0777) as modified by the cur-
rent umask(2).
The options are as follows:
-m mode Set the file permission bits of the final created directory to the specified mode. The mode argument can be in any of the formats
specified to the chmod(1) command. If a symbolic mode is specified, the operation characters '+' and '-' are interpreted relative
to an initial mode of ``a=rwx''.
-p Create intermediate directories as required. If this option is not specified, the full path prefix of each operand must already
exist. On the other hand, with this option specified, no error will be reported if a directory given as an operand already exists.
Intermediate directories are created with permission bits of ``rwxrwxrwx'' (0777) as modified by the current umask, plus write and
search permission for the owner.
-v Be verbose when creating directories, listing them as they are created.
The user must have write permission in the parent directory.
EXIT STATUS
The mkdir utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
EXAMPLES
Create a directory named foobar:
$ mkdir foobar
Create a directory named foobar and set its file mode to 700:
$ mkdir -m 700 foobar
Create a directory named cow/horse/monkey, creating any non-existent intermediate directories as necessary:
$ mkdir -p cow/horse/monkey
COMPATIBILITY
The -v option is non-standard and its use in scripts is not recommended.
SEE ALSO rmdir(1)STANDARDS
The mkdir utility is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compatible.
HISTORY
A mkdir command appeared in Version 1 AT&T UNIX.
