Hello,
These two lines add the borders to your table.
tableObj = word.ActiveDocument.Tables.Item(1);
tableObj.Borders.Enable = 1;

Take a look at documentation https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/overview/word, left-hand side, expand Object Model under Word, and find the function you use to add the pictures and take a look at methods/properties of it.
