    I make these candles too, and I always add a drop or two of Bergamot essential oil to my melted wax because the scent from the Earl Grey tea isn't very strong. Also, it's a good idea to melt your wax and coconut oil in a smaller bowl over a pot of simmering water, so that the oil and wax don't burn. You can also tear the tea bags open and empty the tea into a bowl with the melted coconut oil, and then you just strain the oil into another bowl and add the wax. That way you get more fragrance from the tea into your wax.

    I've been using those Blue Pea Flower teas as a natural coloring for my candles.

    Useing a duble boiler would help prevent burning the oil or tea bags.

    Just wondering can't you just melt the wax and mix it with the tea bags instead of getting another oil?

    I’ve opened the tea bags and sprinkled on top 😆

    Love this. Trying to start a candle business from home but I don’t want to use the scented oils for aroma. Thanks!

    Good video but do we need tea and coconut oil fragrance together??

      Refined coconut oil won't scent your candle, but will harden up with the wax. Don't use fragrance oil to steep your tea, it won't work the same!

    Scent will disappear and be non-existent when you burn it. Tea is not meant to scent candles. And essential oils don’t always work that great in candles. Save yourself the money people and get a proper candle making kit.
