A very easy way to make a rounded button in tkinter is to use an image.

First create an image of what you want you button to look like save it as a .png and remove the outside background so it is rounded like the one below:

Next insert the image in a button with PhotoImage like this:

self.loadimage = tk.PhotoImage(file="rounded_button.png")
self.roundedbutton = tk.Button(self, image=self.loadimage)
self.roundedbutton["bg"] = "white"
self.roundedbutton["border"] = "0"
self.roundedbutton.pack(side="top")

Ensure to use border="0" and the button border will be removed.

I added the self.roundedborder["bg"] = "white" so that the the background the background of the button is the same as the Tkinter window.

The great part is that you can use any shape you like not just the normal button shapes.
