If you want to write it as a class, which has numerous advantages...

import Tkinter as tk

class Application(tk.Frame):
    def __init__(self, master=None):
        self.x = tk.IntVar()

        tk.Frame.__init__(self, master)
        self.pack()
        self.createWidgets()

    def createWidgets(self):
        tk.Label(self, textvariable=self.x).pack()
        tk.Button(self, text='Click', command=self.increment).pack()

    def increment(self):
        self.x.set(self.x.get() + 1)

root = tk.Tk()
app = Application(master=root)
app.mainloop()
