Its not obvious what you are asking. But, if you populate a Frame with widgets, then you can destroy those widgets if you destroy the Frame: tk = Tk() f = Frame(tk) # fill frame with 10 buttons for i in xrange(10): Button(f, text=str(i)).pack() # kill the frame and buttons f.destroy() # references to buttons gone too, so they are GC'd # make a new frame and put it in tk f = Frame(tk) # etc. You will want to make sure any name assignments are re-assigned, del'd, or go out of scope after you destroy frame, or the button objects won't be garbage collected, even though they are destroyed when the frame is destroyed.
