4 Uses of Tea Bags from TLC!

You can put your tea bags in the compost to help reduce garbage and nurture their plants. Don’t compost? That’s fine! You can steep a tea bag in water until the water slightly changes colour and then use it to water your plants. If you want to help your garden grow bury the tea bag outside, don’t worry tea bags will decompose!
