Hi,
I mostly use wxPython myself, but if you just need some basic widgets
and not some very complex or non-standard layouts, the tkinter -
available in the standard library - might be perfectly viable.
http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/tk.html
The more recent versions of python also support ttk and Tix which has
further possibilities, styling etc.
There is further e.g. Python GUI

and several others
