Actually I want to make very compact and cheap circuit , and then I have found such circuit on web.
This is something you should just buy. Commercial units will be smaller, cheaper, and have certifications for line operation. You just need to watch out for fakes.

If I had an application that need 5V at a low current I would fist consider using a little charger like the one ronsimpson mentioned and treat it as a component rather than going off and creating possible hazards.
