Hmm, people don't usually harmonize the blues scale. It is played over certain chord progressions or wherever feels right.

The standard blues progression is 1 4 5 and use dominant 7 chords commonly in C major/blues
C7,F7,G7
The blues scales doesn't have scale degree chords like the major scale the blues scale goes great over dom7 chords for whatever chord you have it works for the 1 or the 6 for example a C7 the C blues or A blues will work but sometimes one wont fit so you have to experiment to see cuz you can use the wrong one in a certain part of the song and change the mood for the worse
