Since others want to see more,


Try this, you can make the changes you want to the 
look of your final output with grid or 
pack_forget() . 

root = Tk()
class Ktest:
    def __init__(self):
        self.Ftest1()

    def  Ftest1(self):
        try:    
            self.test2.grid_forget()
        except AttributeError :
            pass    
        self.test1 = Button(root, text='Push #1
                          button', bg = 'yellow',
                          width = 25,
                          command = self.Ftest2,
                          height = 25)
        self.test1.grid(row=0, column=0)


    def Ftest2(self):
       self.test1.grid_forget()

       self.test2 = Button(root, text='Push #2
                         button', bg = 'green',
                         width = 25,
                         command = self.Ftest1,
                         height = 8)
       self.test2.grid(row=0, column=0)
if __name__==  '__main__' :
    Ktest()
    mainloop()
