Assuming you are still using Tkinter, the code below should elucidate.
The button's callback uses the special insert position END to append
something tpo the entry's current value.

from Tkinter import *

class createStuff:

    def __init__(self, window=None):
        self.button = Button(window, text="Click Me", command=self.addaone)
        self.entry = Entry(window)
        self.button.pack()
        self.entry.pack()

    def addaone(self):
        self.entry.insert(END, "1")

def close(self):
    self.quit()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    root = Tk()
    win = createStuff(root)
    root.mainloop()
