Try putting something that tastes sour but not harmful on anything that he can reach. That way he’ll figure out that taking things off of tables isn’t good.

When he reaches up on a table snap out a short loud “NO!” and then redirect his attention to something he is allowed to do. When he listens praise him somethin’ aweful. He will soon learn that it is more beneficial for him to NOT steal things.
Or, as we do at our house, don’t leave things laying out…. a place for everything and everything in it’s place.
