Everything will do

Dear native English speakers,

Would #2 be used as well as #1?
#1 Anything will do.
#2 Everything will do.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help, fivejedjon.

How do they differ then? In which context would "everything will do" be used?

Sorry. I think I was mistaken Put to the test, I cannot think of a situation in which the sentence 'Everything will do' is natural.

OK, fivejedjon. Thanks anyway.
