My name is Heidi Muller, and I’m behind Mish Mash Make.
I am drawn, moth – flame style, to creative people. If I am in a crowd, and sense an “inspired” vibe rolling off of someone, I want to seek them out, and know them. I want to become a friend and confidant.
The interviews in this blog are a direct result of my infatuation with creative sorts. Poets? I want to hear your words. Potters? I want to touch your clay. Musicians? I want to rock out with you.
But I’m not only intrigued by creatives in a traditional sense. I am currently nuts about entrepreneurs – what a visionary bunch! And kids who make things, who create art from tin foil and toilet paper – I’m amazed by their lack of inhibition. Concrete masons, preachers, chronic furniture movers – those who make something from nothing… in their presence I’m wide open to inspiration.
The Maker gene is in me too. I am restless and empty if I am not baking, painting, up-cycling, stitching… well, you get it. As I go along my making way, I’ll share great some DIY’s with you, as well as the best of the creative blogosphere.
This blog is as close as I can get to a coalescence (a mish mash, if you will) of the varied projects and people who interest me.
In the spirit of full disclosure, a big part of my life is cooking food, folding laundry, resolving conflicts, making up songs, and otherwise contributing to the making of my five creative children.


You got me hooked! I love your approach! I am excited to see who you are drawn to and write about. People are indeed so inspiring. I have spied you through the blogging class decor8. Isn’t it just riveting!
Thanks, Deanne. You’re so encouraging! I am really excited (and overwhelmed) by the BYW class. There is a lot to think about. Glad to be going through with so many interesting people!
Love your new blog! I am sooo inspired by BYW and am sad that it’s over. I’ll be launching my new blog soon (hurry up blog designer person!). I think there will be some useful synergies between our two blogs – mine is about the creative process and what inspires me. Anyhow, more later, skater!
Awesome! I look forward to seeing your new blog too.
Thanks for connecting!

LOVE the 52 Fridays project. Found it during research for an article we are about to post concerning the importance of art education. We will be “sneaking” in a link to encourage the article readers to “voyage” over and take a look at your site! Best!

I am enjoying your blog. I love the 52 Fridays Project! There is great talent out there. Thank you for sharing. And, I wanted to say thank you for featuring my piece in “Idaho”. That was a surprise to discover!
Thank you for including “Circles of Color” in your #16 – Kansas art collection. I’m honored! What an original idea for a blog!
Thanks for your comment Heidi! Can you email me? I don’t have your email and I have something that I wanted to ask you. Sounds mysterious, eh? Not really…talk to you soon!
